How to fix my code for copying the cell values? - excel

I am trying to build a vba script to copy the values in the first column of sheet2 100 times to a first column on sheet1
I have some code, but it throws Run-time error 1004 to me, so can't figure out where the mistake is.
For now I have made the code to copy the values on the sheet2 to first empty row in first column in sheet1, but it doesn't work.
For example, I have on the Sheet2
Ara
Cl
RT
And the function will return to me on the list 1
Ara
.
.
.
Ara (X times for each element)
Public Sub Data()
Dim rngSinglecell As Range
Dim rngcells As Range
Dim i As Long
Dim lastrow As Long
Set rngcells = Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlUp))
lastrow = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For Each rngSinglecell In rngcells
For i = 1 To 100
Sheets("Sheet1").Range(Cells(i + lastrow, 1)) = rngSinglecell.Value
Next
Next
End Sub
Run-time error 1004
thank you very much for help!

Problem:
While pasting you are Passing Cells without any reference to sheets that could cause this error.
Use of xlUp should be xlDown
Lastrow should be Recalculated in Iteration or 100 Should be added to it.
Try:
Public Sub Data()
Dim rngSinglecell As Range
Dim rngcells As Range
Dim i As Long
Dim lastrow As Long
Dim cel As Range
With Worksheets("Sheet2")
Set rngcells = .Range("A1", .Range("A1").End(xlDown))
End With
With Worksheets("Sheet1")
lastrow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).row
For Each cel In rngcells
.Range(.Cells(lastrow + 1, 1), .Cells(lastrow + 100, 1)) = cel.Value
lastrow = lastrow + 100
Next
End With
End Sub

Copy 3rd Cell from under Same Row Where Col B is not empty

I have been trying to create a function which checks that if Col"B" <> Empty then copy the third cell which is under the same row.
I have this Data:
Where from i want to copy the Col"D" highlighted cells and paste them into same row where Col"B" <> empty.
Here is the final result. Your help will be appreciated in this regards.
Option Explicit
Sub CopyPasting()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim r As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim n As Long
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
With ws
LastRow = .Range("D" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For r = LastRow To 2 Step -2
If .Cells(r, "B") <> "" Then
.Rows(r + "D").Copy
.Rows(r + "D").PasteSpecial
n = n + 1
End If
Next
End With
End Sub
Please, try the next code:
Sub testRetOffset3()
Dim sh As Worksheet, lastR As Long, rngV As Range, rngFin As Range, c As Range
Set sh = ActiveSheet 'use here the sheet you need
lastR = sh.Range("B" & sh.rows.count).End(xlUp).row 'last sheet row
On Error Resume Next 'if not empty cells in column, it will not return the range and raise an error
Set rngV = sh.Range("B2:B" & lastR).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
On Error GoTo 0
If rngV Is Nothing Then Exit Sub 'stop the code if run on a wrong sheet, without empty cells in column B:B
For Each c In rngV.cells 'iterate between the discontinuous range cells
If rngFin Is Nothing Then 'if the final range is not set (first time)
Set rngFin = c.Offset(3, 2) 'set the range = the Offset necessary cell
Else
Set rngFin = Union(rngFin, c.Offset(3, 2)) 'make a Union between existing range and the Offset necessary cell
End If
Next
If Not rngFin Is Nothing Then 'copy both ranges in consecutive columns
rngV.Copy sh.Range("F2")
rngFin.Copy sh.Range("G2")
End If
End Sub
It will return in columns F:G, starting from the second row. It is easy to modify the range where to return...
You can even clear the existing processed columns and return in B:C, or in another sheet.
Edited:
In order to solve the last request, please use the next code:
Sub testRetOffsetMoreRows()
Dim sh As Worksheet, lastR As Long, rngV As Range, rngFin As Range, A As Range
Set sh = ActiveSheet
lastR = sh.Range("B" & sh.rows.count).End(xlUp).row
On Error Resume Next
Set rngV = sh.Range("A2:D" & lastR).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
On Error GoTo 0
If rngV Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
For Each A In rngV.Areas 'iterate between the range areas
If rngFin Is Nothing Then
Set rngFin = A.cells(1,2).Offset(3, 3) 'use the second cell of the area
Else
Set rngFin = Union(rngFin, A.cells(1,2).Offset(3, 3))
End If
Next
If Not rngFin Is Nothing Then
rngV.Copy sh.Range("H2")
rngFin.Copy sh.Range("L2")
End If
End Sub
But take care to have continuous ranges when have a value in column B:B. Otherwise, the code may fail... The areas property will return differently.
I wasn't sure where you wanted the output, this will put it into a sheet called "Sheet2". (You'll have to make that before running the code it won't create it for you.)
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Long
Dim lr As Long
Dim srcWS As Worksheet
Dim destWS As Worksheet
Set srcWS = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
Set destWS = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet2")
With srcWS
lr = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row
j = 2
For i = 2 To lr
If .Cells(i, 2).Value <> "" Then
destWS.Cells(j, 1).Value = .Cells(i, 2).Value
destWS.Cells(j, 2).Value = .Cells(i, 4).Offset(2, 0).Value
j = j + 1
End If
Next i
End With
If you need the colors copied over as well then use this:
.Cells(i, 4).Offset(2, 0).Copy
destWS.Cells(j, 2).PasteSpecial xlPasteAll
instead of:
destWS.Cells(j, 2).Value = .Cells(i, 4).Offset(2, 0).Value

Increasing range for each iteration

I'm automating an Excel sheet for my work and I'm stuck in a problem.
I'm trying to copy a specific range (A3:D3) and paste it to the ending row of another workbook. I'm trying to use an if statement to filter ranges that have the number 0 in cell B3.
Please help. I'm a complete rookie and I'm just starting out. Sorry if there's a lot of questions.
I've tried to change the range to a cell (i, 2) but it only copies B3 and not the rest (A3:D3).
Edit: forgot to add the s in cells
Edit2: I just need to copy four cells (A3:D3) and increment it on my next iteration so that the copied cell would be (A4:D4)
Sub CopyData()
Dim wsCopy As Worksheet, wsDest As Worksheet
Dim iCopyLastRow As Long, iDestLastRow As Long
Set wsCopy = Workbooks("file1.xlsx").Worksheets("trend")
Set wsDest = Workbooks("file2.xlsx").Worksheets("raw data")
iCopyLastRow = wsCopy.Cells(wsCopy.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 3 To iCopyLastRow
If wsCopy.Cells(i, 2).Value = 0 Then
Else
wsCopy.range(Cell(i,2), Cell(i,4)).Copy
'wsCopy.Cells(i, 2). Copy ##this copies just one cell
iDestLastRow = wsDest.Cells(wsDest.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1).Row
wsDest.range("A" & iDestLastRow).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End If
Next i
Error messages:
Run-time error '1004':
Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed
and the debug highlights wsCopy.range(Cell(i,2), Cell(i,4)).Copy, the statement after else
Try using this code:
Sub CopyData()
Dim wsCopy As Worksheet, wsDest As Worksheet
Dim iCopyLastRow As Long, iDestLastRow As Long
Set wsCopy = Workbooks("file1.xlsx").Worksheets("trend")
Set wsDest = Workbooks("file2.xlsx").Worksheets("raw data")
iCopyLastRow = wsCopy.Cells(wsCopy.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 3 To iCopyLastRow
If wsCopy.Cells(i, 1).Value <> 0 Then
'A = 1, D = 4
wsCopy.Range(wsCopy.Cells(i, 1), wsCopy.Cells(i, 4)).Copy
iDestLastRow = wsDest.Cells(wsDest.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1).Row
wsDest.Range("A" & iDestLastRow).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End If
Next i
End Sub
Just make sure that iCopyLastRow and iDestLastRow are the values that you expect.
I hope this helps.
Try below code, it's ready to use in a loop:
Sub CopyAndAppend()
Dim destSheet As Worksheet, srcSheet As Worksheet, lastRow As Long
Set destSheet = Worksheets("Sheet2")
Set srcSheet = Worksheets("Sheet1")
' determine last row in Sheet2
lastRow = destSheet.Cells(destSheet.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Dim i As Long
i = 3
' copy range A3:D3 and paste it right after last row in Sheet2
srcSheet.Range(srcSheet.Cells(i, 1), srcSheet.Cells(i, 4)).Copy destSheet.Cells(lastRow + 1, 1)
' increment row index
i = i + 1
' do something else
End Sub

Extract text from string based on value of a cell in another worksheet

I have a workbook with a series of sheets that I need to run a code to resolve the data.
I have one worksheet with a list of "codes" and another sheet that has cells that will include a string of codes.
I am trying to create a macro that allows me to reference a code in sheet1 A1, and then look through B:B in sheet2 and copy the row if the code appears in the string
I am a novice VBA user and have tried googling a few things and I'm not having any luck.
Edit:
I have managed to get something that does copy the data through, but there seems to be an issue in the For loop as all lines are copied in, not just the lines that match. Code below.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim xRg As Range
Dim xCell As Range
Dim I As Long
Dim J As Long
Dim K As Long
I = Worksheets("MASTER LIST").UsedRange.Rows.Count
J = Worksheets("VALIDATED LIST").UsedRange.Rows.Count
If J = 1 Then
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(Worksheets("VALIDATED LIST").UsedRange) = 0 Then J = 0
End If
Set xRg = Worksheets("MASTER LIST").Range("E1:E" & I)
On Error Resume Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
For K = 1 To xRg.Count
If CStr(xRg(K).Value) = InStr(Worksheets("MASTER LIST").Range("E1:E" & I).Value, Worksheets("TRANSPOSED DATA NO SPACES").Range("B1:B" & J)) > 1 Then
xRg(K).EntireRow.Copy Destination:=Worksheets("VALIDATED LIST").Range("A" & J + 1)
J = J + 1
End If
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Further Edit:
I want to be able to use the list of feature codes and look them up in the master list.
If the VBA code finds the feature code in the strings in the master list, then I need to copy the row and paste it into a blank sheet that will be called validated list.
Sub look_up_copy()
Dim last_row As Integer
Dim cell As Range
Dim Cells As Range
last_row = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(2).Cells(ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(2).Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
Set Cells = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(2).Range("B1:B" & last_row)
For Each cell In Cells:
If cell.Value = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Range("A1").Value Then
cell.EntireRow.Copy
End If
Next cell
End Sub
You didn't say anything about wanting to paste, but if you do then just insert it after the copy line.
this should work, just remove duplicates on sheet3 after running. This is a double loop in which, for each cell in column B of sheet 2, the macro will check all values from sheet1 Column A. You will see duplicate lines in the end, but it doesn't matter right? all you need is remove dupes

Without seeing your spreadsheet, I assumed all of your 'codes' are listed in Column A in sheet1, and all of those code strings are also in sheet2 in column B. my code allows u to find each string from sheet1 in Column B of sheet2. Once found, it will be pasted into Sheet3 starting from the 2nd row.

Pretty much I rewrote the whole code from scratch. It pretty much uses the initial n2 complexity, but is rather faster than that, because the deletion of the rows in WorkSheet(2) is done in a single last step rangeToDelete.Delete, which saves a lot of time.
Pretty much, the code defines 2 ranges with which is works - ws1Range and ws2Range, using the LastRow function. Once it defines them, it starts looping through them and comparing them. Hence the n2 complexity. In case of equal values, the row is copied and the cell is added to the rangeToDelete.
Note - it will probably not work as "out of the box solution", but try to debug further with F8 and see what happens.
Additionally:
Using Integer is not a great idea in VBA.
"_" in the Sub name is used for Events in VBA, thus it is not a great idea to use it. (although it works)
