Hi Friday,
Copying data is relatively simple to do via macro, but you have to tell us which column of data you want copied. It doesn't need to be the same column every time, but the macro has to understand why you want to move a column. Will you be selecting the column first, then running the macro, or should the macro have some other knowledge of your worksheets?
Thanks
Ok I would like to copy from worksheet 'Input' D8 to D16 and then paste special that data in the next available column in worksheet 'analysis' in the range of A4:M17.
I hope this is clear?!
Hi,
Could you post an example workbook with a before and after sheet? I just can't grasp the concept by the description.

Cleaning up when you're done. Mark your thread [SOLVED] if you received your answer.
THis is sortof what I am chasing (my folder is far more indepth than this) but its an example of what I am looking for.
Thanks for your response
I had something written, but now see your sample data. Not quite what you specified earlier, but this should work. It assumes that you already have headers in the first row of the Analysis worksheet (month names) so it's looking for the last value in the second row of that sheet, and putting the new data in the next column to the right starting in row 2.
Hope that helps!

Thanks for your help, its all really over my head so might have to figure this out some other way? I really need a step by step explination to really convert the data to apply to my actual spreadsheet that I am using- its for work purposes so I can not just post it up.
Thank you I appreciate your time
If your actual spreadsheet is laid out exactly as your sample spreadsheet (perhaps with more rows and columns, but same layout), then the macro should work for you.
See an updated copy of your sample worksheet. I added a module in the VB Editor (ALT+F11) with the code I provided earlier. I left just the Input and Analysis sheets.
To run the macro, press ALT+F8, select 'copyData' and click Run. The data will then appear on the Analysis worksheet and disappear from the Input worksheet. Add new data to the Input sheet and run the macro again, and the data will appear in the next column over on Analysis.
Thank you.......
Sorry to be painful. ok I have made up a spreadsheet that is a better representation of what I have done.
You will see the table in the Analysis sheet and I want the data (from the input sheet under the Data Totals column) to paste in the next empty range within that table (above the graph) eg: May's data to go in there etc etc.
Thanks
The first macro below acts like my previous code, in that it doesn't actually copy/paste data, it sets one range of cell values equal to the input data, then clears the input data. The second macro actually copies the input data from A2:A13 (12 cells) and pastes it into the next available column in your table (formatting and all). You can get around this by using PasteSpecial in a macro instead, but that's up to you.
Another issue is that your table data started in row 5, not 2. Hopefully you've seen how providing accurate sample data and layouts help move things along faster, especially when you don't know how to adjust the macro to your needs.
