Hi Bazza,
In order to transfer data in VBA, one only needs to set the value of the desired cell (or range) on a sheet to the value of the desired cell (or range) on the other sheet, being sure to qualify (i.e., define the worksheet for) the ranges of interest. For example, to put the value of cell B3 in Daily to cell C5 in Monthly:
Sheets("Monthly").[C5] = Sheets("Daily").[B3]
If you want to transfer a range of cells from one sheet to another, you must put the values into a VBA array, so the code would look like this:
Dim Temp As Variant
Temp = Sheets("Daily").[B3:B18]
Sheets("Monthly").[C5:C20] = Temp
In this case, the variant variable Temp is not itself an array, but contains an array.
Happy transferring.
Damon

thanks Damon, i was hoping for it to look for "that days date" on the monthly sheet from dates in a range of cells on that sheet

Hi again Bazza,
To give you a specific solution, some more information is needed. When you say "against" today's date, what does that mean? Put it in the cell just to the right of any cell containing the date? And when you refer to today's date on the destination sheet, is it just that (a date), or is it a full date-time value such as would be yielded by the NOW() function? Are there multiple cells on the destination sheet containing the same date?
