Hi all

I have lurked on here for a while and found it a great help in my travels. I hope you can help me on my first post !

I have two workbooks. "END" which contains a large record per row, I press a button on this and it send a condensed version to a separate workbook "MIDDLE".

The user then acknowledges the record via a user form which adds a digital signature.

I want a code that enables me to press a button in the END which will pull the digital signature from MIDDLE and attach it to the correct record in END.

I can get it working if the button was in MIDDLE , but the end user ultimately will not have access to the drive END is stored in.

I've attached my code below as a start point. Needless to say I can't get it to work.

Code:
From middle to front

Option Explicit

Private Sub Continue_BUTTON_Click()

''BEGIN OPEN & CLOSE'''
Dim xlBook As Workbook
Dim xlSheet As Worksheet
Dim fso As Object
 
Const strPath As String = "C:\Users\Me\" 
Const strName As String = " MIDDLE.xlsm" 
 
    Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
     
    On Error Resume Next
    Set xlBook = Workbooks(strName) 'see if the book is open
    If xlBook Is Nothing Then 'if not open it
        Set xlBook = Workbooks.Open(strPath & strName)
    End If
    Set xlSheet = xlBook.Sheets("Middle_Raw_Data")
    With xlSheet

            
        '''BEGIN SEARCH
        Dim ResponseRec As String
        Dim finalrow As Integer
        Dim i As Integer 'row counter 
        Dim targetrow As Integer 
        Dim DigSig As String 
                
        ResponseRec = "Yes"
        finalrow = Sheets("Middle_Raw_Data").Range("B10008").End(xlUp).Row


        For i = 2 To finalrow
            If Cells(i, 23) = ResponseRec Then
                Entryrow = Range(Cells(i, 5))
                Targetrow = Range(Cells(i, 5))
                DigSig = Range(Cells(i, 23))

    Sheets("Middle_Raw_Data").Range("Data_Start_1D").Offset(EntryRow, 5).Value = “Yes – Submitted”   ‘update record in MIDDLE
    Workbook(“END”).Sheets("END_Raw_Data").Range("Data_Start_FPOC").Offset(TargetRow, 35).Value = DigSig ‘update record in END

            End If

        Next i   ‘rinse and repeat

        '''END SEARCH 

    Sheets("Feedback_Raw_Data").Range("Data_Start_1D").Offset(TargetRow, 20).Value = DigitalSig
    Sheets("Feedback_Raw_Data").Range("Data_Start_1D").Offset(TargetRow, 21).Value = "Yes"

    End With
    ''END OPEN & CLOSE'''

Workbooks("MIDDLE.xlsm").Save
Workbooks("MIDDLE.xlsm").Close

End Sub

Something to add is MIDDLE holds multiple records all of which will not have a digital signature yet. Hence the search function to find those that do.

I hope my explanation makes sense? Thanks in advance!
