Macro to Copy a whole row to the next available line on another sheet based on a value

Hey Guys, is there a a simple If/then statement that can do the following? Or do I need to venture into Macros?

Basically if column A contains "text X" copy the whole row to the next available line on sheet 2. And if column A contains "text Y" copy the whole row to the next available line on sheet 3. If it helps I only have 3 text strings that I need to use (So "X", "Y", "Z").

if(A1="x", Copy to sheet2,....something something?

Thanks for any help!

Edit:It occured to me there may be a better way to get to my end goal, so I should post that too. I have rows of data that gets classified in 1 of 3 (X, Y,Z) ways. I want to be able to manipulate and graph all the data that only falls under X or Y or Z.

Please take a moment to amend your thread title. Make sure that the title properly explains your request. Your title should be explicit and not be generic (this includes function names used without an indication of what you are trying to achieve).

Please see Forum Rule #1 about proper thread titles and adjust accordingly. To edit the thread title, open the original post to edit and then click on Go Advanced (bottom right) to access the area where you can edit your title.

I suggest that you call your thread Macro to Copy a whole row to the next available line on another sheet based on the value of a cell.

Once that is done i will be back to help you.

(Note: this change is not optional. No help to be offered until this moderation request has been fulfilled.)

Please move to the Macro section if you can.

Meanwhile I will work on this for you.

However I need one bit of information first.

Do you want the rows moved as you enter the data.

Or do you want this done all at once.

Or both?

Ok I have one last question. How Many Columns of data do you have?

I have kept this simple.

Have a play while I annotate it so you can understand what I am doing.
