    Automate copy and paste based on condition

    I am trying to automate the following but not sure what code to use for it. In sheets("Data") if any value in column A = Employee then copy the corresponding value in column C and paste in sheets("Report") in col C6 and onwards. Many thanks.

    I got an error saying Method Range of Object worksheet failed and it highlighted this line

    "vA = sh1.Range("A", "A" & lr1).Value"

    Re: Automate copy and paste based on condition

    From the workbook you posted, it's not clear that you have set up the Data sheet in a way that makes finding vacation and O/T hours consistent from one employee to the next. If you revise that sheet so that each Employee record contains those quantities (even if they are zero), the code I posted can be easily adapted to do this.

    Re: Automate copy and paste based on condition

    unfortunately this is how the data is pulled from the system and there will be multiple data extracts which is why I am attempting to automate. Is there any way to say if there is employee totals in A col then copy data from E col and paste in E col of report tab?
