Excel VBA help needed

Copper Contributor

Hi all,

 

Hopefully this isn't too abstract. I have a sheet that we use for tracking submissions to one of our customers. I would like to pull that data into a worksheet that I'm building that will do the same thing for our other customers, only with different categories that are a bit more conducive to building some simple metrics.

 

Here is essentially what I'm trying to accomplish:

 

For sheet 1 I need to transfer the following information to the next available row on sheet 2:

  • Sheet 1: Column A to Sheet 2: Column A
  • Sheet 2: Column B should have "TOR" in each row where data was pulled from Sheet 1
  • Sheet 1: Column B to Sheet 2: Column C
  • Sheet 1: Column C to Sheet 2: Column D
  • Sheet 2: Column G should have "Pass" in each row where data was pulled from Sheet 1
  • Sheet 1: Column M to Sheet 2: Column I.
    • Column M is a short-hand version of the content that would be entered into Column I if Sheet 2 were to be used on its own. So I need to change the value during the copy, for example, if "1" was entered it in Column M, it would need to output as "One" in Column I. 

I should also mention that I do have some code living on Sheet 2 for when that is filled out on its own. Not sure if it would cause any problems since all it does is fill in the date in Sheet 2 Column A if a value is typed into Cell B in the same row.

 

If anyone can offer a guiding hand on how to do the above, I would really appreciate it. I've been sort of divining how the VBA works from bits of code I've scrounged up around the internet and I've been able to get some results but they're pretty piece-meal/inconsistent and things tend to quickly fall apart since I'm basically building Frankenstein. 

 

Thanks,

 

John

IMHO, it's easier to give the link on the source https://www.excel-easy.com/vba.html rather than copy/paste the text having no internal links.

 

Anyway, that's not related to the initial question.
