Hi VBA experts,

Could you help me to write a for loop of this code. The purpose of this vba code is search for sheets that matchs SheetName column in SourceFile, copy data until the last rows of entry in Columns Range of Source File to Destination File.

I can do it without a loop as the code below.

copy data based on columns range of another file worksheet.jpg


VBA Code:
Sub CopyPaste_ColumnsRange()
    
    Dim SourceFile As String, DestinationFile As String
    
    Dim SheetName1 As String, SheetName2 As String, SheetName3 As String
    Dim ColumnRange1 As String, ColumnRange2 As String, ColumnRange3 As String
    Dim LastRow1 As Long, LastRow2 As Long, LastRow3 As Long
    Dim WS1S As Worksheet, WS2S As Worksheet, WS3S As Worksheet, WS1D As Worksheet, WS2D As Worksheet, WS3D As Worksheet
    
    SourceFile = ActiveSheet.Range("C2")
    DestinationFile = ActiveSheet.Range("D2")
    
    SheetName1S = ActiveSheet.Range("A2")
    SheetName1D = Left(SheetName1S, 6)
    ColumnRange1 = ActiveSheet.Range("B2")
    Set WS1S = Workbooks(SourceFile).Sheets(SheetName1S)
    Set WS1D = Workbooks(DestinationFile).Sheets(SheetName1D)
    LastRow1 = WS1S.Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlRows, xlPrevious).Row
    Intersect(WS1S.Rows("1:" & LastRow1), WS1S.Range(ColumnRange1)).Copy WS1D.Range("A1")
    
    SheetName2S = ActiveSheet.Range("A3")
    SheetName2D = Left(SheetName2S, 6)
    ColumnRange2 = ActiveSheet.Range("B3")
    Set WS2S = Workbooks(SourceFile).Sheets(SheetName2S)
    Set WS2D = Workbooks(DestinationFile).Sheets(SheetName2D)
    LastRow2 = WS2S.Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlRows, xlPrevious).Row
    Intersect(WS2S.Rows("1:" & LastRow2), WS2S.Range(ColumnRange2)).Copy WS2D.Range("A1")
    
    SheetName3S = ActiveSheet.Range("A4")
    SheetName3D = Left(SheetName3S, 6)
    ColumnRange3 = ActiveSheet.Range("B4")
    Set WS3S = Workbooks(SourceFile).Sheets(SheetName3S)
    Set WS3D = Workbooks(DestinationFile).Sheets(SheetName3D)
    LastRow3 = WS3S.Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlRows, xlPrevious).Row
    Intersect(WS3S.Rows("1:" & LastRow3), WS3S.Range(ColumnRange3)).Copy WS3D.Range("A1")
    
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
I hope I'm not missing anything, but I think you can understand the flow and make correction if any
VBA Code:
Sub CopyPaste_ColumnsRange()
  
    Dim SourceFile As String, DestinationFile As String
  
    Dim SheetNameS As String, SheetNameD As String
    Dim ColumnRangeS As String
    Dim LastRowS As Long, n As Long
    Dim wsS As Worksheet, wsD As Worksheet
  
    SourceFile = ActiveSheet.Range("C2")
    DestinationFile = ActiveSheet.Range("D2")
  
    For n = 2 To ActiveSheet.Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row
        SheetNameS = ActiveSheet.Range("A" & n)
        SheetNameD = Left(SheetNameS, 6)
        ColumnRangeS = ActiveSheet.Range("B" & n)
        Set wsS = Workbooks(SourceFile).Sheets(SheetNameS)
        Set wsD = Workbooks(DestinationFile).Sheets(SheetNameD)
        LastRowS = wsS.Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlRows, xlPrevious).Row
        Intersect(wsS.Rows("1:" & LastRowS), wsS.Range(ColumnRangeS)).Copy wsD.Range("A1")
    Next
  
End Sub

Solution
Thank you Zot for helping me understand the flow.

When I debug, it has problem at
VBA Code:
For n = 2 To ActiveSheet.Range("A1").End(xlDown)
The error is Run-time 13, Type Mismatch. I guest we should change the ActiveSheet.Range("A1").End(xlDown) a little bit.

I edited it before time expired but I guess you get the previous one. I put .Row to give number but the previous one not having that, thus resulting a range I believe.
