Good Afternoon all,

Is there a macro for copying data from Sheet 2 to Sheet 1.

I have the day's horseracing cards on sheet 1 and I have the title of each race on sheet 2. I want to copy the race title for each race and paste it into the correct cell on sheet 1.

Example...the first race title is in cell B3 on sheet 2 and that would pasted into cell B1 on sheet 1. The second race title would be in Cell Cell B4 on sheet 2 and so on but the cells for the titles to be pasted in on sheet 1 change due to the amount of runners per race each day. They could go down as far as 2000 rows on sheet 1.

At the minute I copy the cell on Sheet 2 and paste it into the appropriate cell on sheet 1. It doesn't take long just looking for way for a macro to do the work.

I have posted a link of exactly how the racecard and the titles appear. Any help would be appreciated.

Kindest Regards

Rob

Excel Facts

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
This is a suggested approach, rather than code.
Column A in Sheet 1. Count the number of lines with a given time, taken from Table in Sheet 2. This will tell how many rows you have for each table. This will allow you to copy from Sheet 2 Column B and paste into Sheet 1 Column B Row x.

The formats of the times don't look the same.

If this is not clear, get back and I'll try again... I've been known to be not concise.

Thanks Hank. I will give that a go. I will have to get the format of the times the same though.

How about
Code:
Sub mlmrob()
   Dim Rng As Range
   Dim Ary As Variant
   Dim i As Long
   
   Ary = Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A:A").SpecialCells(xlConstants).Offset(, 1).Value
   For Each Rng In Sheets("sheet1").Range("B:B").SpecialCells(xlBlanks).Areas
      i = i + 1
      If Ary(i, 1) = "" Then i = i + 1
      Rng.Offset(Rng.Count - 1).Resize(1, 1).Value = Ary(i, 1)
   Next Rng
End Sub
