    Ease of Copy Pasting from one workbook to other.

    Hi,

    I have 2 workbooks, In 1 workbook I have around 1000 names(entities) in column A and in the second workbook I have around 200 details in column A.

    What I want is to copy & paste the 200 details entities to each of the 1000 names in the 1st workbook at column B. So the end result will have around 200,000 entities count.

    Example:

    Example1.jpg


    End Result:

    Example2.jpg


    To manually do this for 1000x200 will take up a lot of time. Please suggest an easier way to perform this.

    Thanks for the help.

    A simple macro looping code will do that easily

    But we need a sample workbook instead of picture

    Thanks for the reply,

    I wish I could give the file, so I can finish this horrible task...but it's considered as a confidential file and my work does not allow me to share it

    Thank you so much..you just saved my weekend! I followed your steps but was getting an error when I checked the final data would be more than 3 million lines..so did by part by part and it worked.

    Once again thank you and have a great weekend.
