Good Day,

I've had luck in the past so I'll try again and a big thanks to everyone who's helped me before.

So, I have worksheet 1 that has data in columns A through M and worksheet 2 with data in columns A through F.

I need to be able to match the data by number in worksheet 1 & 2 on column C. The kicker is I need to be able to insert worksheet 2 data into worksheet 1 and shift all data down for that match by rows. And for every match after that. Example:

Worksheet 1

[TABLE="width: 904"]
<colgroup><col><col><col><col span="10"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD]a[/TD]
[TD]b[/TD]
[TD]c[/TD]
[TD]d[/TD]
[TD]e[/TD]
[TD]f[/TD]
[TD]g[/TD]
[TD]h[/TD]
[TD]i[/TD]
[TD]j[/TD]
[TD]k[/TD]
[TD]l[/TD]
[TD]m[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xxx[/TD]
[TD]1234[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Worksheet 2

[TABLE="width: 456"]
<colgroup><col><col><col><col span="3"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD]a[/TD]
[TD]b[/TD]
[TD]c[/TD]
[TD]d[/TD]
[TD]e[/TD]
[TD]f[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]1234[/TD]
[TD]yyy[/TD]
[TD]xxxx[/TD]
[TD]x[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]1234[/TD]
[TD]yyy[/TD]
[TD]xxxx[/TD]
[TD]x[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]xx[/TD]
[TD]1234[/TD]
[TD]www[/TD]
[TD]xxxx[/TD]
[TD]x[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Desired Output

[TABLE="width: 904"]

Hopefully this makes sense...Each match may or may not have the same amount of rows associated with it but I just want to view the data "on top of each other" for quick reference. Also, not sure if it will affect the script but there isn't a 1 to 1 match, meaning some data in column C for both worksheets may have no matches.

If i need to explain further, please let me know and thanks again.

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.

may be a few real type examples, lots of xxxx there, makes sense to you but not easy to consider

Re: A Whopper of A Request - VBA/Macro Sort

Thanks for the reply. And I get it, i just figured it would be easier to focus on the column/data that it needs to be sorted on. In this example Column ID1 is the sort where we're looking for matches in both worksheet 1 and 2. The output needs to find that match in Column ID1 in both worksheets and then insert Worksheet's 2 data into the row beneath the match.

Worksheet 1
[TABLE="width: 1148"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Number[/TD]
[TD]Name[/TD]
[TD]ID1[/TD]
[TD]Number[/TD]
[TD]Date[/TD]
[TD]Date[/TD]
[TD]Number[/TD]
[TD]ID[/TD]
[TD]Number[/TD]
[TD]Letter Number[/TD]
[TD]Name[/TD]
[TD]Name[/TD]
[TD]ID[/TD]
[/TR]

[TD]123[/TD]
[TD]John Smith[/TD]

Re: A Whopper of A Request - VBA/Macro Sort

Thanks Mick! Appreciate you taking the time to write this and I'm excited but unfortunately I'm getting a Run-time error '7': Out of Memory. Any thoughts as to why ?

Re: A Whopper of A Request - VBA/Macro Sort

How many rows and columns have you in your data (both sheets)??
Do you know what line it failed on ??
