    VBA Formula for copying cells and adding new ones

    Hello to everyone i am trying to program a button in excel so that it takes the data from a few cells and it copies them in a new file. What i would like to do is also to make excel verify that if there is already data written in the new cells to write the new ones in the row below. Can somebody help me pls?
    It's very important for my job.

    Sure. You will need to give some details.

    Name of the file from which data should be copied.
    Ranges / cells that need to be copied.
    Name of the file to which data should be pasted.
    Ranges where the data needs to be pasted.

    Okay
    Name of the file of origin: own shares.xls
    Cells to be copied: C3, C4,C5,C8,C9,C12, C13, C14, C15, I5, I9
    Name of the file destination: archive.xls
    And the cells must be copied everytime i press the button in a different row but in the order mentioned above from A to K.

    Is that all you need?

    Will the destination file be opened or should the macro open it?

    Drsteffa,

    If i understood you correctly, if you change the code given in post 8, the macro will automatically open the file from the path specified, it will do the updates and then you need to add this line before the "End Sub".

    This will save your file in that path from where you opened it, so that next time, the updates can be done to the same file.
