Hi All,
I have access this forum multiple times as a guest and I have found many answers to my issues; however, I have now one problem that I cannot figure out a solution. I would like to ask for your help since I am not a VBA guru and I am new in the forum.

Here is my issue:
I have one sheet (Sheet1) with following sample values (real sheet has more values)
[TABLE="width: 448"]

My goal is to create a macro that will read the first value (i.e. 10) from Sheet1 column 7 and use it as filter for the values in sheet2 (column 2 as Key). Once the rows are filtered (i.e. 3 rows with value 10); copy these in memory and switch back to sheet 1> add a row underneath original number (10)and 'insert copy cells' .
This following table shows my intended goal.

So far, I have a macro that works for the first value (Sheet 1 - G2 cell as active) but when I select the second value in sheet1 column 7 (i.e. 20). The macro does not work anymore:

Following is my code so far:

NOTE: I'm open to any other approach if your gurus feel is better.
Also, the real files will have more rows in them.

Sorry for above tables but once I figure out how to paste images or add files I will do it.

Thanks in advance,




Sub CopyFilteredValues()
Dim CLValue As String
Dim cellAddress2 As Integer
CLValue = ActiveCell.Value
cellAddress = ActiveCell.Address
Sheets("Sheet2").Select

Set My_Range = Range("$A$2:$G$10")
My_Range.Parent.Select
My_Range.Parent.AutoFilterMode = False

My_Range.AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=CLValue
My_Range.Parent.AutoFilter.Range.Copy

Sheets("Sheet1").Select


ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Rows("1:1").EntireRow.Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown
End Sub

 
Re: Help needed with Filters (New Member)

Mumps,

I have now run a few set of files; some of them with around 10000-15000 thousand lines and code it's working great.

I will start looking into the code logic to understand it better. Also, I might contact you in the near future because a new need has came up (we might need a third level). I will give it a try and let you know if I run into problems.

Once again, THANK YOU so much for all your help.

Regards,

Hi Mumps,

I have started working on the three levels macro; also I have looked into detailed to the code and I have a couple of questions, I hope you can help me before I try to go any further.

Could you please explained the use of the 'a' counter? I was able to get rid of it by changing the x counter from:
x = x + z + 1
to
x = x +z

This way we can have the total number of rows (1 and 2) to be used for the 'x For loop'. - Just adding the two of them.

Also, I make a few change to handle if the initial rows from Sheet1 do not exist in Sheet2.

As I mentioned; could you please explain the meaning of the a counter? I just want to make sure I don't oversee something.

Thanks,


Here is the code after a couple of changes.

Code:
Sub CopyData()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim LastRow1 As Long
    LastRow1 = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells.Find(What:="*", SearchOrder:=xlRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, LookIn:=xlValues).Row
    Dim LastRow2 As Long
    LastRow2 = Sheets("Sheet2").Cells.Find(What:="*", SearchOrder:=xlRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, LookIn:=xlValues).Row
    totalRows1and2 = LastRow1 + LastRow2 + 100
    Dim x As Long
    Dim z As Long
    Dim a As Long
    'a = 0
    Dim b As Long
    b = 2
    On Error Resume Next
    For x = 2 To totalRows1and2 'x = 2 To 100
        If Not Sheets("Sheet2").Range("B:B").Find(Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(x, "G"), LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole) Is Nothing Then
            Sheets("Sheet2").Select
            Range("B1").Select
            Selection.AutoFilter
            Range("A1" & ":G" & LastRow2).AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(x, "G")
            Range("A2" & ":G" & LastRow2).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy
            z = ActiveSheet.AutoFilter.Range.Columns(2).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Cells.Count - 1
            If z > 0 Then
                If Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row > 1 Then
                    Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A" & Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + b).Rows("1:1").Insert Shift:=xlDown
                ElseIf Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row = 1 Then
                    Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A" & b + 1).Rows("1:1").Insert Shift:=xlDown
                End If
                'x = x + z + 1
                'a = a + 1
                x = x + z
            End If
            If Sheets("Sheet2").FilterMode Then Sheets("Sheet2").ShowAllData
            b = 2
        Else
            b = b + 1
        End If
    Next x
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

I've tried your code and it works properly. Your changes have made it more efficient and so the "a" appears to be no longer necessary. Give it a try with your three levels and see how it works out.
