Good Evening,

I have a sheet called Employee List which holds information on every employee and what tests they require.

However, when employees need booking in for tests it takes a fair bit of sorting, is very time consuming and messy which leads to data input errors.

I was wondering if there was a way that I could do this automatically with VBA and transfer employees based on a specific criteria.

In worksheet "employee list" I have 25 columns which hold various pieces of data. Need it to start on row 6 and then check down to the end row looking to see if column 25 matches the set criteria.



Employee List
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Emp ID[/TD]
[TD]First Name[/TD]
[TD]Surname[/TD]
[TD]Dept[/TD]
[TD]Unit[/TD]
[TD]Site[/TD]
[TD]Shift[/TD]
[TD]A[/TD]
[TD]Atime[/TD]
[TD]C[/TD]
[TD]Ctime[/TD]
[TD]F[/TD]
[TD]FTime[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Shortest Time[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]11[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Mickey[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Mouse[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Costume[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]D1[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Disney[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Days[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Yes[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]20[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Yes[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]20[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]Yes[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]20[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]-10
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


The booking sheet has ComboBox1 which has a value of either 30/60/90 and when a value has been selected and CommandButton1 is pressed I need it to search column 25 on the Employee List sheet and then paste the information from the columns 1 - 7, 13,15 etc and place it into the booking sheet starting from B3.

I have looked online and google all afternoon but cannot seem to get it right. It either throws errors or pastes the data on top of each other.

I am new to VBA so an explanation of how it works and what it is doing would be really useful so I can learn from my mistakes.

Thank you for any support it is greatly appreciated.
 

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
I do not understand this:
paste the information from the columns 1 - 7, 13,15 etc

1-7,13,15 etc. what would etc. look like I see no trend here.

Do you mean copy entire row?

And if copy entire row we cannot start the pasting in Column B
