Hi,

This is the first loop I've written. It seems to do exactly what I intended except it doesn't end. When I hover over the CheckValue it stay's as "Column 1" even though it should increase to Column 2,3,4 etc with each iteration. Eventually It will be eventually be blank as all the headings will be deleted point I want the loop to end.

Code:
Sub Part4_Loop()

Dim CheckValue As String

CheckValue = Worksheets("Temp Sheet").Range("D1").Value

Do While CheckValue <> " "

Sheets("Temp Sheet").Activate
    Range("A2").Select
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
    Range(Selection.Offset(0, 3), ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0)).Copy

Sheets("Imaging Report Summary").Activate
    Worksheets("Imaging Report Summary").Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select
    ActiveSheet.Paste

Sheets("Temp Sheet").Activate
Columns("D").EntireColumn.Delete

Loop

End Sub

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
Try it like
Code:
Dim CheckValue As String
Do While CheckValue <> ""

CheckValue = Worksheets("Temp Sheet").Range("D1").Value

You need to update CheckValue each time the loop executes. For example:

Code:
Sub Part4a_Loop()
    Dim CheckValue As String
    CheckValue = Worksheets("Temp Sheet").Range("D1").Value

    Do While CheckValue <> " "
        Sheets("Temp Sheet").Activate
        Range("A2").Select
        Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
        Range(Selection.Offset(0, 3), ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0)).Copy

        Sheets("Imaging Report Summary").Activate
        Worksheets("Imaging Report Summary").Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select
        ActiveSheet.Paste

        Sheets("Temp Sheet").Activate
        Columns("D").EntireColumn.Delete

        CheckValue = Worksheets("Temp Sheet").Range("D1").Value

    Loop
End Sub
