    copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    Hello. A few days ago, someone assisted me in creating a macro that enabled me to copy certain cells from one sheet to another when a check box was ticked. Works like a charm.

    I have another workbook where I want to do something similar. I thought I could easily substitute spreadsheet names and cell ranges to make the same macro work here. But I've not been successful. Attached is a shell of the workbook I'm working on now. Check boxes are there. This time I have several sheets and want specific cells from any checked rows on any of the sheets to move to the "programs requested" sheet at the end. I tried doing it with the first sheet (Brockton) as a test and had no luck. Here is the language below....Getting run time errors, among others. FYI, the cells I would like moved over when checked are A,B,D,N,P,R and S.

    Could someone assist me?
    Thank you!

    None of the sheets mentioned on the code are on the attached.

    Sorry, I attached the wrong workbook. Here you go! It should be "for forum"

    Sheets("Programs requested") is blank, so you will get an error

    where in the code does check for check box was ticked? I could not see anywhere.

    Re: copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    Set crng = Sheets("Brockton").Range("T3:T6")

    I know almost nothing about coding. This was done for me by another member of the forum. But I assumed that the code above referred to the check box.

    If I populate "Programs Requested" first, then that will take care of one error?

    Re: copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    Set crng = Sheets("Brockton").Range("T3:T6")

    Refers to 3 cells only, which means the code loops 3 times.
    Let's start from zero.
    you have sheet Brockton which has check boxes in T3:T27. All cells within this range have box, except some of the cells which have total in them.
    Do you want to copy A,B,D,N,P,R and S from that sheet to WHERE? which sheet? if a cell has a check box.

    Okay!
    You want to copy in sheet Programs requested

    Re: copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    Right. I actually want to do this from any of the sheets. When the box is checked on any of the sheets, those particular cells get copied onto "Sheet Programs". I was starting with "Brockton" to see if I could get the coding right. But all I get are errors.

    Re: copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    Hello again.

    I've updated the workbook, so that "Programs requested" is no longer empty. Is it possible to help me get the coding correct so that I am able to move those fields from the other sheets to "programs requested" if the box in column t is checked? Thank you so much.

    I am working on it. You want to copy from all sheets which have check box to the "programs requested" sheet.

    Re: copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    You have checkbox. To test if there is a check box in a cell, we use True or False, but in your case, there are mixed. Some of the cells are ticked and others are not. I have ticked all of them so as to test a cell for consistency. I do not know if this you wanted, but try the attached.

    Re: copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    This is fantastic!
    This is exactly what I need. Thank you very, very much.

    I am reading the code and trying to figure out how you were able to identify the specific cells in the spreadsheets that I wanted to appear in "Program request" spreadsheet. I can't see where you have identified them specifically. If you have a moment, could you show me that line? I'm just very curious and would love to learn more.

    Thank you again!

    Re: copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    I have now updated the code using your normal data with out touching the box( Without ticking the box).

    The lines which say

    used to test if each cell fulfils these conditions.
    I can add the name of the sheet in to column A if you want so that you can easily see which lines comes from which sheet.

    Re: copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    Sure. That would be very helpful.
    And if I decide down the road that I want to include another cell or remove one that I originally included, is it easy enough for me to edit the macro to do that?

    I am very pleased. Thank you again so much.

    Yes,
    When you run the code, it first clears any data in programme and repopulate it with new data. All You have to do is to check if the check box is ticked or not.

    Re: copy cells from a row in one of several sheets into another sheet based on check box.

    Wonderful. Final question. As I continue to add those checked cells to my "Programs Requested" sheet, I want to update the Programs Requested sheet and add columns with new information to each record. Yet I find that if I sort the Programs requested sheet, any time I run the macro anew, it inserts the new row where it belongs in the sort, but the information in the new columns stay put. In other words, the new data no longer goes with the record it is associated with. Is there a way to avoid this?

    Almost there! I am psyched.
