Could someone please help me with some VBA code.
I am trying to copy 2 ranges of cells between workbooks (both workbooks should be created beforehand as i don't want the code to create a new workbook on the fly).
Firstly I need to copy these ranges- From 'Sheet 3' of booka.xls, Range: Cell H5 to the last row in column H with data copy this to 'Sheet 1' of bookb.xls, starting in Cell B2 for as many cells down in the B column
Secondly I need to copy these ranges- From 'Sheet 3' of booka.xls, Range: Cell K5 to the last row in column K with data copy this to 'Sheet 1' of bookb.xls, starting in Cell D2 for as many cells down in the D column
Here is what I have so far:
Sub CopyDataBetweenBooks()
Dim iRow As Long
Dim wksFr As Worksheet
Dim wksTo As Worksheet
wksFr = "C:\booka.xls"
wksTo = "C:\bookb.xls"
Set wksFrom = Workbooks(wksFr).Worksheets("Sheet 3")
Set wksTo = Workbooks(wksTo).Worksheets("Sheet 1")
With wksFrom
For iRow = 1 To 100
.Range(.Cells(iRow, 8), .Cells(iRow, 9)).Copy wksTo.Cells(iRow, 8)
Next iRow
End With
End Sub
Click the tab for the first worksheet that you want to reference. Hold down the Shift key then click the tab for the last worksheet that you want to reference. Select the cell or range of cells that you want to reference. Complete the formula, and then press Enter.
On the Data tab, under Tools, click Consolidate. In the Function box, click the function that you want Excel to use to consolidate the data. In each source sheet, select your data, and then click Add. The file path is entered in All references.
Assuming you have the reference to wksFrom
and wksTo
, here is what the code should be
wksFrom.Range(wksFrom.Range("H5"), wksFrom.Range("H5").End(xlDown)).Copy wksTo.Range("B2")
wksFrom.Range(wksFrom.Range("K5"), wksFrom.Range("K5").End(xlDown)).Copy wksTo.Range("D2")
Here's an example of how to do one of the columns:
Option Explicit
Sub CopyCells()
Dim wkbkorigin As Workbook
Dim wkbkdestination As Workbook
Dim originsheet As Worksheet
Dim destsheet As Worksheet
Dim lastrow As Integer
Set wkbkorigin = Workbooks.Open("booka.xlsm")
Set wkbkdestination = Workbooks.Open("bookb.xlsm")
Set originsheet = wkbkorigin.Worksheets("Sheet3")
Set destsheet = wkbkdestination.Worksheets("Sheet1")
lastrow = originsheet.Range("H5").End(xlDown).Row
originsheet.Range("H5:H" & lastrow).Copy 'I corrected the ranges, as I had the src
destsheet.Range("B2:B" & (2 + lastrow)).PasteSpecial 'and destination ranges reversed
End Sub
As you have stated in the comments, this code above will not work for ranges with spaces, so substitute in the code below for the lastrow
line:
lastrow = originsheet.range("H65536").End(xlUp).Row
Now ideally, you could make this into a subroutine that took in an origin workbook name, worksheet name/number, and range, as well as a destination workbook name, worksheet name/number, and range. Then you wouldn't have to repeat some of the code.
