Afternoon guys,

I have one workbook with 2 sheets of data, what i need to do is build a macro that look at column A in sheet 1, matches that to column A in sheet 2.

For every match in the columns (And there will be no duplicates) copy the data row F to M in sheet 2 and paste it on the matching row from F onwards in sheet 1.

I have no idea where to start with this as i'm building my knowledge of VBA as you guys help me.

So thank alot in advance...

Mike

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
As you have asked for a macro, that is what I have provided, however, this could also be done with a VLOOKUP if there are no duplicates:
Code:
Sub SortValues()
Dim Limit As Long
Dim Limit2 As Long
Dim c As Long
Dim d As Long
Dim sh1 As Worksheet
Dim sh2 As Worksheet
Set sh1 = Worksheets("Sheet1")
Set sh2 = Worksheets("Sheet2")
Limit = sh1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Limit2 = sh2.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For c = 1 To Limit
    For d = 1 To Limit2
        If sh1.Cells(c, 1) = sh2.Cells(d, 1) Then
            sh1.Range("F" & c & ":M" & c).Value = sh2.Range("F" & d & ":M" & d).Value
        End If
    Next d
Next c
End Sub
