I am trying to create a macro that loops a copy/paste of items in (Column A) of my "Backend" worksheet based on a single cell's value (B2) onto my "Backend 2" Worksheet. To give some context, I have forecast data on building floors and trying to reformat my spreadsheet so that Tableau will read the dates as "dimensions." In order to accomplish this I would need a macro that would copy/paste my 83 floors of data 15 times for the 15 months in my forecast. I would also like the reference cell (B2) so that I can add months to the forecast if needed. Thanks!
Copy From:
Paste to:
The current answer allows me to copy one value type "floor," but I was wondering if I could run a macro that would copy/paste an entire row based on the copy amount. Please refer to the example below. I have 3 unique teams on sheet 1 that I want copied four times based on the cell L2 on sheet 2.
Before (Sheet 1)
After (Sheet 2)
This should work for you:
Sub floors()
Dim ws1 As Worksheet
Set ws1 = sheets("Bcknd")
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
If Not sheetExists("Migration Plan Data Extract") Then
sheets.Add After:=ws1
Set ws2 = sheets(ws1.index + 1)
ws2.name = "Migration Plan Data Extract"
Else
Set ws2 = sheets("Migration Plan Data Extract")
End If
If Len(ws1.Range("B2").Value2) > 0 And IsNumeric(ws1.Range("B2").Value2) Then
ws2.Range("A1").Value2 = ws1.Range("A1").Value2
Dim vals As Variant
vals = ws1.Range("A2:A" & ws1.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Long: j = 1
For i = 1 To ws1.Range("B2").Value2 * UBound(vals)
ws2.Range("A" & i + 1).Value2 = vals(j, 1)
If i Mod ws1.Range("B2") = 0 Then
j = j + 1
End If
Next i
End If
End Sub
Alright, this should copy down the entire row :)
Sub floors2()
Dim ws1 As Worksheet
Set ws1 = sheets("Bcknd")
If Len(ws1.Range("L2")) > 0 And IsNumeric(ws1.Range("L2").Value2) Then
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
If Not sheetExists("Migration Plan Data Extract") Then
sheets.Add After:=ws1
Set ws2 = sheets(ws1.index + 1)
ws2.name = "Migration Plan Data Extract"
Else
Set ws2 = sheets("Migration Plan Data Extract")
End If
ws1.Range("A1:J1").copy Destination:=ws2.Range("A1:J1")
Dim lastRow As Long
lastRow = ws1.Range("A" & rows.count).End(xlUp).row
Dim rng As Range
Set rng = ws1.Range("A2:J" & lastRow)
Dim currentRow As Long: currentRow = 2
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Long
For i = 1 To rng.rows.count
For j = 1 To ws1.Range("L2").Value2
rng.rows(i).copy Destination:=ws2.Range("A" & currentRow)
currentRow = currentRow + 1
Next j
Next i
End If
End Sub
This sub is used by both to see if the sheet "Migration Plan Data Extract" already exists
Function sheetExists(sheetToFind As String) As Boolean
sheetExists = False
Dim sheet As Worksheet
For Each sheet In Worksheets
If sheetToFind = sheet.name Then
sheetExists = True
Exit Function
End If
Next sheet
End Function
