I have a dataset that contains yellow cells (each yellow cell represents the final treatment plant or TP in a flow path) from Range("A2: F841"). Since the yellow cells are spread out randomly among the columns A to F, I would like to use VBA to copy them all as a single range in column J. I am doing this so that each well in column I has a corresponding final TP. Here's a screenshot of my spreadsheet

Try this modification to Dante's code...
Code:
Sub Copying_yellow_cells()
  Dim i As Long, j As Long
  For i = 2 To Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
    For j = 1 To Columns("F").Column
      If Cells(i, j).DisplayFormat.Interior.Color = vbYellow Then
        Cells(i, "J").Value = Cells(i, j).Value
        Exit For
      End If
    Next
  Next
End Sub
Thanks, that worked!

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
Try this (not tested)

VBA Code:
Sub Copying_yellow_cells()
  Dim i As Long, j As Long
  For i = 2 To Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
    For j = 1 To Columns("F").Column
      If Cells(i, j).DisplayFormat.Interior.Color = vbYellow Then
        Cells(i, "J").Value = Cells(i, j).Value
        Exit For
      End If
    Next
  Next
End Sub
That worked, thanks!
