Hello again!

I have got an excel file that contains two sheets.
The first one, named Appointments, contains demographic data, such as name, age etc.
IDΟνοματεπώνυμοΗλικίαΑΜΚΑΤ.Ε.Ρ.ΥποκατάστημαΗ.Λ.Ε.
1person 1616582145825431/12/2021place A05/05/2022
2person 2613252841296329/12/2021place B07/03/2022
3person 3572147823654129/12/2021place C21/08/2022
4person 4689874336658029/12/2021place D14/01/2022

The second one, named Results, draws these demographic data from the Appointments sheet, through an IF function, using each person's ID.

On the same sheet, there are also some cells that allow manual changes to the above data (instead of drawing them from the Appointments sheet. So, if the person who fills in the Results sheet finds a mistake, e.g. in the name, they can edit it.

What I would like is to have a macro to transfer those edits to the Appointments sheet as well.

For example, if the name on ID 1 is written as George instead of Gerogia, the person will correct it (using column AA), it will appear on the results form (line 5), but I also want it to change on the Appointments sheet as well, so as not to have to transfer it myself manually.

I'd rather not have an automated process that runs on the background, but a macro that I'll assign a button to it. If that's possible, I can give you the ranges and all other relevant info.

Hope my message makes sense :)🤞🙏
 
I understood that the correction table needs to be transferred. But I need to know on which row, so that is why I need the information in the results table. But I see there is also an ID in U2, so I can use that to quickly find the correct row.

I will include the overwriting of column B.
Thanks for the info
Exactly, you can use the ID in cell U2 on the Results sheet to find the correct row on the Appointments sheet.
IDs on the Appointments sheet are in column A. ID 1 is in cell A5, ID 2 in A6 and so on.

    'Now write the output array across the line in the appointments sheet
    'calculate row on sheet, in case data does not start in A1
    lRo = rAD.Row + lRd - 1
 
    'write the line
    wsA.Cells(lRo, 1).Resize(1, 8).Value = vOut
 
    'clear the correction table
    rCorr.Offset(1, 1).Resize(9, 1).ClearContents
 
End Sub

I am afraid that either I am not using it correctly or I did not give you all the necessary info. This macro doesn't seem to be doing anything.

Set rAD = wsA.Range("A1") '<<<<<< Left top corner of datatable on Appointments sheet
This is A5 (first row of data) or A4 (table heading)

Set rRS = wsR.Range("A5:V7") '<<<<<< Resultstable on Results sheet
We just use 6 cells within this range, that have formulas in them. Not sure if we really need this line. I don't need any data to be copied in those cells.

Case Len(sIDN) And (vOut(1, 2) Like sIDN)
'both names same, do nothing
I'd rather to have a pop up message even if names are the same.

I think it will be easier for you if I upload the excel file, because the add on that copies it makes my computer crash!

P.S. Please remember to include the macro assigned to "Save as PDF" in your macro.

Thanks!
