    How would I alter the above so when it pastes into sheet test it doesn't paste the whole row, instead it just pastes rows A to O ???

    I know it's the below line which currently copies the entire row but I just want the range Ax:Ox to be pasted.

    Re: Macro to compare data between sheets and copy/paste

    Will this option work? Copy as is and delete the unwanted columns?

    Re: Macro to compare data between sheets and copy/paste

    I don't want any columns deleted. What I want is, when the row is copied from sheet PIF, I want it to be pasted into sheet test, but only paste in the row from Ax:Ox.

    Re: Macro to compare data between sheets and copy/paste

    I want to look in column H on sheet PIF and if it finds 'U' then copy that row range A to O and then look at whats in column F on the row where it found U on the same sheet and then goes and find whats in column F on sheet test searching only column F and if it finds a match then paste on that row.

    Re: Macro to compare data between sheets and copy/paste

    My original post works perfectly for what I've described. The only issue is that I don't want the whole row copied and pasted, just range A to O in the row.

    Re: Macro to compare data between sheets and copy/paste

    Book1.xlsm

    OK, I've tested it and what you posted ooeldere works, but, it always give me an object defined error after it runs and highlights the piece of code you gave me even though it does what I now want it to do! Can you check the below sample file with code included?

    Thanks!
