Using Autofill to fill a Blank space with Formula (Help Please)

[AutoMation42]

This is now my second post to this forum exciting stuff. I am still very new to coding so please excuse any foolish code writing. My problem here is that I wrote a piece of code that is supposed to autofill some formulas but the number of rows is constantly changing as data is added so it has to be dynamic. Basically, I have a bunch of code already written that prompts a bunch of InputBox windows to pop up so that anyone can fill out the necessary information and then it fills in the according information in the row (skipping certain spaces where I just want a formula to be dragged down. Everything works except for this tiny little piece of code that I can't seem to make work no matter what I do with it. If any more information is required I would be more than happy to provide examples. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The code that is not working appears like this:

Set fillRange = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("L3:L").End(xlDown)
Range("L3:L4").AutoFill Destination:=fillRange

 

[Peter_SSs]

I am assuming this is all happening in 'Sheet1'
I am also unsure just how you want to determine the bottom of the fill range. This would use the last row in column A with data to determine the last row of the fill range.
If that is not it, then please explain in more detail how the bottom of the range is to be determined and/or give us a small dummy sample with XL2BB

With Worksheets("Sheet1")
  Set fillRange = .Range("L3:L" & .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
  .Range("L3:L4").AutoFill Destination:=fillRange
End With

Hi @Peter_SSs and thank you for the help! I am also going to @Akuini because they have been helping me right along in a different post and despite not knowing them at all have come to view them as a mentor of sorts, and you have done plenty to help me so please feel free to ignore me. I have some code that I managed to piece together with help from various sites including this one. I have been wording my questions a bit poorly so I am going to do my best to explain this part of the code all in one shot and accurately so that it can all be completed all at once. The code I have is actually in Module1 now because I made a dashboard for all the buttons I intend to have and am calling the Subs with a button on the dashboard that is simply "Call Module1.whatever_sub_this_button_is_for". This being said the Dashboard sheet is “Dashboard Control” and the Sheet all this is happening on is “Active Stuff” I have changed many titles, names, and indicators to keep confidential information, confidential so if anything seems silly, that’s because it probably is. I understand this is a large request considering this is a forum but any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated, and thank you for taking the time to even consider it.

1. I am going to post the full code because it is lengthy and could probably be condensed into a much simpler form. What I want this code to do is prompt the user with an inputbox that will expressly ask for specific content and fill it in accordingly across the next unused row. These rows of data have headers/titles at the top of the column which change order (I will attach a sample of sheet setup) and although my code works, it is not dynamic at all and adds the data to the same place no matter what. In the code next to the variables I explained what I need to be able to do with each one. So, if the column Variable2 switches places with Variable4 I will now be adding data to the wrong place and also sorting by the wrong order.
2. After all the data gets added and the input box portion is done, I want the specific listed rows above to simply pull the formula down, and again it works as is but is not dynamic.
3. Once all the data including formulas is filled in I want the data sorted from smallest to largest from Variable1 first and then from smallest to largest again but using Variable2 (again these rows can change places).
4. Right now I have Variable16 listed as something to be added as an input box but it is going to be a formula that I need to drag down like Variable12

Hi @Peter_SSs and thank you for the help! I am also going to @Akuini because they have been helping me right along in a different post and despite not knowing them at all have come to view them as a mentor of sorts, and you have done plenty to help me so please feel free to ignore me. I have some code that I managed to piece together with help from various sites including this one. I have been wording my questions a bit poorly so I am going to do my best to explain this part of the code all in one shot and accurately so that it can all be completed all at once. The code I have is actually in Module1 now because I made a dashboard for all the buttons I intend to have and am calling the Subs with a button on the dashboard that is simply "Call Module1.whatever_sub_this_button_is_for". This being said the Dashboard sheet is “Dashboard Control” and the Sheet all this is happening on is “Active Stuff” I have changed many titles, names, and indicators to keep confidential information, confidential so if anything seems silly, that’s because it probably is. I understand this is a large request considering this is a forum but any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated, and thank you for taking the time to even consider it.

1. I am going to post the full code because it is lengthy and could probably be condensed into a much simpler form. What I want this code to do is prompt the user with an inputbox that will expressly ask for specific content and fill it in accordingly across the next unused row. These rows of data have headers/titles at the top of the column which change order (I will attach a sample of sheet setup) and although my code works, it is not dynamic at all and adds the data to the same place no matter what. In the code next to the variables I explained what I need to be able to do with each one. So, if the column Variable2 switches places with Variable4 I will now be adding data to the wrong place and also sorting by the wrong order.
2. After all the data gets added and the input box portion is done, I want the specific listed rows above to simply pull the formula down, and again it works as is but is not dynamic.
3. Once all the data including formulas is filled in I want the data sorted from smallest to largest from Variable1 first and then from smallest to largest again but using Variable2 (again these rows can change places).
4. Right now I have Variable16 listed as something to be added as an input box but it is going to be a formula that I need to drag down like Variable12

Dim V12 As Long
Dim lio, lih
    V1 = InputBox("Please Enter Variable 1 Number Here", "Variable 1")
    lio = Application.Match("Variable 1", Rows(2), 0)

        lastrow0 = Worksheets("Active Stuff").Cells(2, lio).End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select
            ActiveCell = V1

     lih = Application.Match("Variable 12", Rows(2), 0)
     Net = Cells(2, lih).End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Row
        Range("L3").AutoFill Destination:=Range("L3:L" & Net), Type:=xlFillDefault

End Sub

I have made some progress in making the above code dynamic and this is just a small excerpt because if this is made dynamic then I can apply it to the rest of the code myself. The code posted with this comment is only partially dynamic. The top part involving Variable 1 and V1 is dynamic and works as I wished for it to and has been tested and confirmed so that part is ok. The second section as you can see is referring specifically to column L and I haven't been able to get any variations to work with autofill. I attempted to use column header names by naming cells to refer to instead of the column letter but it gave me "Method range of object failed errors" on the autofill line. I also attempted to use offset but I got the same error in the same spot and now I am stuck. Any help would be massively appreciated! Thank you for the consideration.

After a lot of work I did not manage to condense what already existed but I did manage to make what I had written into something that is now dynamic as in, if the column headers change locations, the information will still be put in the appropriate location. I am posting this code for anyone that may have a similar issue. It is a bit clunky and I am more than sure it can be made more efficient by someone with more skill in coding, but it does work. I did run the code to make sure it still ran properly after changing the variable names etc. to keep information confidential.
