Hi all,

So I'm stuck with getting my cut/paste vba to work as well as a separate question. Here are my criteria:
  • Column "I" contains only one instance of the word "Final".
  • Need to cut/paste "Final" so it moves 1 cell below.
  • Need to insert the word "Total" into the original location of the word "Final"
  • Outcome should be the word "Total" with the word "Final" below it.

Here is what I have regarding the cut/paste VBA code:

Sub Macro14()
Dim rngA As Range
Dim cell As Range


Set rngA = Sheets("GL Detail").Range("I:I")
For Each cell In rngA
If cell.Value = "Final Difference (after factoring in Distributions/Withholding Taxes Payable)" Then
cell.Cut
Sheets("GL Detail").Range("I1:I").End(xlDown).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End If
Next cell


End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
Try this.
Code:
Sub Macro14()
Dim rngA As Range
Dim cell As Range


    Set rngA = Sheets("GL Detail").Range("I:I")
    For Each cell In rngA
        If cell.Value = "Final Difference (after factoring in Distributions/Withholding Taxes Payable)" Then
            cell.Offset(1).Value = cell.Value
            cell.Value = "Total
        End If
    Next cell

End Sub

Sorry - I messed up my question a little bit:

Here are my criteria:

  • Column "I" contains only one instance of the word "Final Difference (after factoring in Distributions/Withholding Taxes Payable)".
  • Need to cut/paste "Final Difference (after factoring in Distributions/Withholding Taxes Payable)" so it moves 1 cell below.
  • Need to insert the word "Total" into the original location of the word "Final Difference (after factoring in Distributions/Withholding Taxes Payable)"
  • Outcome should be the word "Total" with the word "Final Difference (after factoring in Distributions/Withholding Taxes Payable)" below it.

Your edited code inserts the word "Total" into almost every row. I think because the range is defined at the entire column "I", however, I can't think of another way to define the range, since it's variable.

The code I posted will only put Total in the cell where 'Final Difference (after factoring in Distributions/Withholding Taxes Payable)' and put 'Final Difference (after factoring in Distributions/Withholding Taxes Payable)'.

It won't do anything else unless it finds multiple instances of 'Final Difference (after factoring in Distributions/Withholding Taxes Payable)'.
