Rome wasn't built in a day
my initial idea was to record some macros with a prompt for user to select data to be copied..
It isn't clear what you're trying to do here. Can you update the sheet with an example?
Are you looking for a formula or a vba macro?
oh sorry:
intention is to copy any 12 cell selection into ITEM column where cells are merged due to a format of a document
This code will do it. I don't know off hand if there's a way to determine the starting row of a merge cell programmatically. May be.
The other consideration would be knowing how the value in column A relates to the start of the merged row.
Thing to remember is that excel vba references standard columns, and doesn't take into account merged columns.

Thanks. How will it work? i am just trying to understand the code herewould it be possible to promp a message where user could select range for cells to be copied?
There's a couple of ways to handle specifying the locations:How you'd set it up depends on the work flow.
- form pop-up after you click on a button
- have some cells designated for input and do merge on a button click
have you tried it? it does not seem working for me. if i do it right: copy this code into a new module and run it, but before i have to have something copied right? sorry i am not good in VBA
Yes, I tested the code before posting. I used your spreadsheet as the example.
Right now the code is specific to your example. The data to copy (Source) needs to start in K4; the are to copy to (Target) starts in D3; and there are 3 rows before the next cell to copy to.
Yes, you need to have data in the source column.
If you use the code below, you can change:
- where to copy the data from by changing the values of nSCol & nSRow.
- where to copy the data to by changing the values of nTCol & nTRow
- if you change # of rows between target cells, change the value of nIncr
