I tried to do search, copy and paste to sheet2 from sheet1. First I need to search a value of a column in sheet2 then match the value in sheet1, and copy then paste the entire row to sheet2. For example I have this data below
Sheet2
A B C D E F
1200-24
1201-24
120-24
1218-24
Sheet1
A B C D E F
2 345 1200-24 ABD 1er 3.4
3 456 1201-24 CDF de3 6.6
7 780 120-24 EFg d45 9.6
9 657 1218-24 VGA 9ml 8.7
so I want all data from c1 on sheet 2 to be searched on sheet 1, if matched then paste to row 2 sheet 2, c2 on sheet 2 to be searched on sheet 1, if matched then paste to row 3 sheet 2, etc.
I found this code from this site:
Sub SearchForString()
Dim LCopyToRow As Integer
On Error GoTo Err_Execute
'Start copying data to row 2 in Sheet2 (row counter variable)
LCopyToRow = 2
Dim sheetTarget As String: sheetTarget = "sheet2"
Dim sheetToSearch As String: sheetToSearch = "sheet1"
Dim targetValue As String: targetValue = Sheets(sheetTarget).Range("C2").Value 'Value in sheet2!A1 to be searched in sheet1
Dim columnToSearch As String: columnToSearch = "C"
Dim iniRowToSearch As Integer: iniRowToSearch = 2
Dim LSearchRow As Long 'As far as it is not clear the number of rows you will be considering, better relying on the long type
Dim maxRowToSearch As Long: maxRowToSearch = 2000 'There are lots of rows, so better setting a max. limit
If (Not IsEmpty(targetValue)) Then
For LSearchRow = iniRowToSearch To Sheets(sheetToSearch).Rows.Count
'If value in the current row (in columnToSearch in sheetToSearch) equals targetValue, copy entire row to LCopyToRow in sheetTarget
If Sheets(sheetToSearch).Range(columnToSearch & CStr(LSearchRow)).Value = targetValue Then
'Select row in Sheet1 to copy
Sheets(sheetToSearch).Rows(LSearchRow).Copy
'Paste row into Sheet2 in next row
Sheets(sheetTarget).Rows(LCopyToRow).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
'Move counter to next row
LCopyToRow = LCopyToRow + 1
End If
If (LSearchRow >= maxRowToSearch) Then
Exit For
End If
Next LSearchRow
'Position on cell A1
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Range("A1").Select
MsgBox "All matching data has been copied."
End If
Exit Sub
Err_Execute:
MsgBox "An error occurred."
End Sub
but it won't let me move from c2 to c3 on sheet2, and also the code LCopyToRow = LCopyToRow + 1, not moving to the next row on sheet2.
Your help much appreciated.
thank you
EDITED:
I change the line Dim targetValue As String: targetValue = Sheets(sheetTarget).Range("C2").Value ---- >> it was range ("A2"). thank you
