    Macro to find/compare data and move data from one sheet to the other

    I have attached both test sheets... What I am working with is Test1 is an order system sheet we will say... and Test2 is the sheet I get sent daily in an email...
    I need to be able to run a macro on Test2 that will find each order number from it and find the order number in Test1 and place the corresponding Billing Doc # & Price for that Order # in the Test1 sheet... This should be an easy task but I cannot seem to figure out a way to get it working... Thanks for all the input ahead of time!!! Remember the data in TEST2 sheet is always changing and the TEST1 sheet will be a huge list of numbers these are only test sheets...

    Test2.xlsx

    TEST1.xlsx

    Make sure that both workbooks are open. Place the following macro in a regular module in the Test2 workbook and save the file as a macro-enabled file so that the extension is changed to "xlsm". Then run the macro.

    Why not to use a formula with a VLOOKUP covering a large range.
    Like
    =VLOOKUP(E2,[Test2.xlsx]Sheet1!$B$1:$D$20000,2,0)

    Ok,

    The copydata works but it only does the column copy/paste if the cells are right next to each other... the actual file they are not next to each other they are cells A & I so that is where I am stuck at now.

    I based the macro on the information you gave in your original post. The macro won't work properly if the organization of the actual data is different. Can you please post copies of both actual files. It would be much easier to help.
