I'm curious if it is possible to copy data from a worksheet to another using VBA.
Example.
I am trying to pull all data in Workbook "OP-AUX Database Test(MacroEnabled)" sheet19 to workbook "SN Log" sheet1.
With the database I have made (with massive help from this community) the macro I have auto logs particular columns on sheets2-17 to sheet19 while removing duplicates. Would there be a way to do this same task but move it to another workbook so there's less clutter and easier logging while also removing duplicates like the following VBA code? I'm currently using the following VBA to capture required information to Sheet19 on the "OP-AUX Database Test(MacroEnabled)" workbook.
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
 Sheet2.Range("K2", Sheet2.Range("K" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Copy
 Sheet19.Range("A1048576").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
 Sheet19.Range("A2", Sheet19.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).RemoveDuplicates 1
 Sheet19.Range("B2:B" & Sheet19.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value = Date
 Sheet2.Range("L2", Sheet2.Range("L" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Copy
 Sheet19.Range("c1048576").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
 Sheet19.Range("c2", Sheet19.Range("c" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).RemoveDuplicates 1

How to calculate loan payments in Excel?
Use the PMT function: =PMT(5%/12,60,-25000) is for a $25,000 loan, 5% annual interest, 60 month loan.
Did you give up @PuntingJawa ?

I didn't see you post a new thread asking about your dilemma. Please let me know.

I have another code you could try, in the mean time of creating and waiting for results of that new thread, but I am unsure if you are still interested.

a few more questions, if you are still interested:

Are both of your workbooks going to be open when you run the script to copy from 1st workbook to second workbook?
Do you want to clear the contents of the destination 'LOG' prior to copying new data there? Clearing contents would remove older data/dates.
Are both the workbooks in the same folder?
How many columns/Rows are you roughly dealing with over all those worksheet to copy/paste? ie, how many columns/rows, roughly, will be in the 'LOG' sheet?

Sorry I haven't gotten around to posting my dilemma. My lead at work put in his two weeks notice so my workload has more than doubled and I haven't had time to play around with this. I'm not at my pc but I think the columns lead up to Ab. It doesn't need to clear the log in the main workbook but it would be acceptable to remove it entirely if we can log directly. If I didn't need the log workbook open that would be ideal. And yes, the log workbook would indeed be in the same folder. Again, sorry for not following up on this. I'm overloaded with my main job title and am struggling a bit to keep up.

I finally have a moment and am caught up on my shipping duties.
Are both of your workbooks going to be open when you run the script to copy from 1st workbook to second workbook?
Preferably, no.
Do you want to clear the contents of the destination 'LOG' prior to copying new data there? Clearing contents would remove older data/dates.
If I can remove the "Log" entirely from the main workbook that would be fine. However, it isn't hurting being there and could act as a failsafe. Either way is acceptable to me.
So clearing the contents is not necessary since I can do it manually once yearly. Unfortunately, there is no yes or no answer. Yes and no are perfectly fine to this.
Are both the workbooks in the same folder?
Yes, both are in/are going to be located in the same folder. Once yearly I will simply "Save as" with the year and clear the contents of the log file we are saving to. So in that fact nothing will need to be reformatted.
How many columns/Rows are you roughly dealing with over all those worksheet to copy/paste? ie, how many columns/rows, roughly, will be in the 'LOG' sheet?
I was incorrect in my answer to this. It stops at "BD" column. So it'll be 56 columns total.

Guess not. Anyways, if I can accomplish what I am trying to whip up for you, you will love the new code.

I've got an old file I can produce the same results with. It's a holiday weekend so I won't be to work until Tuesday this week. I truly look forward to it.

I did a search for customizing buttons and it resulted in 'Dialog sheets' to achieve the objective. Well I had never used that approach so I decided to see what it was all about. There is very little info on it because it is a very old way of performing the objective. UserForms have long replaced the objective. So I figured it might be interesting to try and use something that has been outdated for 20 years or better. As I mentioned, there is little info on it, but I think I did a fairly decent job of using it to achieve something you will like. I was unable to figure out how to put the dialog box where I wanted on the screen (centered), but other than that it seems to work very well. Perhaps another member here could assist in the positioning of the box?

Try it out and let me know what you think.

Solution
Just checking back in @PuntingJawa. You good now?
I'm so sorry I haven't replied. I have been so busy with the workload of my shipping duties that I haven't had the chance to do anything to test this. I should have help soon but I have to train them. After which if this does work (which from looking I see no reason it shouldn't) I'll have to modify it because they have changed and added several more variations but it should be easy enough to modify. Again, I'm very sorry for not responding. I've been insanely busy.
