I am starting a new post for this question as I believe it is a separate question.

Someone on this forum was very generous to give me the following code but my problem with it is I do not know how to modify it to select specific columns and group them.

For example. How would I modify this to copy the data from the "Data" sheet for columns A1:C1 AND F and paste them into the form on the "Central Form" sheet

Note: The code also has a problem with clearing the data on rows when pasting it onto the forms (rows 18, 19 20, 36, 37 and 38 to be exact) that I do not know how to fix - I asked this on my previous post if others need to reference this.

VBA Code: 
Sub PasteToCentralForm3()
    Dim tableRange As Range, destSheet As Worksheet
    Dim tableArray() As Variant, Result() As Variant
    Dim numRows As Long, numCols As Long
    Dim i As Long, j As Long, loopCount As Long
    Dim chunkSize As Long
    CustCol = "A1:C1, F1:F1" 'adjust columns to grab **IT IS NOT GRABBING F!**
   
    Set tableRange = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Data").ListObjects("Order_Data").DataBodyRange 'Change table name as needed
    Set destSheet = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Central Form")
    chunkSize = 15 'adjust chunk size as needed.
   
   
    numRows = tableRange.Rows.Count
    numCols = tableRange.Range(CustCol).Columns.Count
    p = 1
    ' Read data into array
    tableArray = tableRange.Value
    ReDim Result(1 To numRows, 1 To numCols)
    For m = 1 To numRows
        If tableArray(m, 2) = "Central" Then
            For n = 1 To numCols
                Result(p, n) = tableArray(m, n)
            Next n
             p = p + 1
        End If
    Next m
   
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    loopCount = WorksheetFunction.RoundUp(UBound(Result, 1) / chunkSize, 0)
   
    ' Collect all data into one large array
    Dim outputData() As Variant
    ReDim outputData(1 To loopCount * (chunkSize + 2) - 2, 1 To numCols)
   
    Dim outputIndex As Long
    outputIndex = 1
   
    For i = 1 To loopCount
        Dim outputRowCount As Long
        outputRowCount = WorksheetFunction.Min(chunkSize, numRows - (i - 1) * chunkSize)
        For j = 1 To outputRowCount
            For k = 1 To numCols
                outputData(outputIndex, k) = Result((i - 1) * chunkSize + j, k)
            Next k
            outputIndex = outputIndex + 1
        Next j
        outputIndex = outputIndex + 3 ' Skip three rows for each chunk
    Next i
   
    ' Output all data to destination sheet at once
    destSheet.Cells(3, 1).Resize(UBound(outputData, 1), UBound(outputData, 2)).Value = outputData
   
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.

Do you have "Option Explicit" in your module where the code is?
You might have to adjust for tables.
Code: 
Sub Test()
Dim CustCol As Range
Set CustCol = Range("A1:C1, F1").EntireColumn
CustCol.Select
End Sub
 
Upvote 0
Rather than using Entire Columns, just the Range needed would be better.
Code: 
Sub AAAAA()
Dim CustCol As Range, lr As Long
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Set CustCol = Range("A1:C" & lr & ", " & "F1:F" & lr)
CustCol.Select
End Sub

This works great! Thank you so much!
Is there a way to define one more thing? Where to start pasting the data?
For example, if the form starts at cell C13 and that is where I wanted to start pasting the chunks.
Can we make the starting point adjustable?

Thank you again for all of your help!


For example, I changed a few things to apply to another spreadsheet and added in sr for starting row. I just do not know how to do starting column, say column C (3)


VBA Code: 
Sub PasteToCentralForm5()
    Dim tableRange As Range, destSheet As Worksheet
    Dim tableArray() As Variant, Result() As Variant
    Dim numRows As Long, numCols As Long
    Dim i As Long, j As Long, loopCount As Long
    Dim chunkSize As Long
    Set tableRange = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Data").ListObjects("Data").DataBodyRange 'Change table name as needed
    Set destSheet = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Part Request Form")
    chunkSize = 20 'adjust chunk size as needed.
    numRows = tableRange.Rows.Count
    numCols = 7 ' Columns A, B, D, F, G, H and I

    p = 1
    ' Read data into array
    tableArray = tableRange.Value
    ReDim Result(1 To numRows, 1 To numCols)
    For m = 1 To numRows
        If tableArray(m, 9) = "S" Then
            Result(p, 1) = tableArray(m, 1) ' Column A
            Result(p, 2) = tableArray(m, 4) ' Column D
            Result(p, 3) = tableArray(m, 2) ' Column B
            Result(p, 4) = tableArray(m, 8) ' Column H
            Result(p, 5) = tableArray(m, 6) ' Column F
            Result(p, 6) = tableArray(m, 7) ' Column G
            Result(p, 7) = tableArray(m, 9) ' Column I

            p = p + 1
        End If
    Next m
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    loopCount = WorksheetFunction.RoundUp(UBound(Result, 1) / chunkSize, 0)
    Dim outputIndex As Long
    Dim rowSkip As Long
    rowSkip = 12 'change # of rows to skip
    sr = 12 'Starting row '***added starting row
    outputIndex = 1
    ' Output each chunk of data
    For i = 1 To loopCount
        Dim outputRowCount As Long
        outputRowCount = WorksheetFunction.Min(chunkSize, numRows - (i - 1) * chunkSize)
        Dim outputData() As Variant
        ReDim outputData(1 To outputRowCount, 1 To numCols)
        For j = 1 To outputRowCount
            For k = 1 To numCols
                outputData(j, k) = Result((i - 1) * chunkSize + j, k)
            Next k
        Next j
        ' Output the chunk to destination sheet
        destSheet.Cells(outputIndex + sr, 1).Resize(outputRowCount, numCols).Value = outputData '***added starting row
        outputIndex = outputIndex + outputRowCount + rowSkip ' Move to next chunk
    Next i

The 1 is column A. Change to 3 for C.
VBA Code: 
destSheet.Cells(outputIndex + sr, 1).Resize(outputRowCount, numCols).Value = outputData '***added starting row

I thought I tried that but guess I made an error because it works now.

Thank you so very much! This is perfect!
