Copy range if column N is empty

[ajm1949]

Hi all
I have looked through the forums but can't find what i need.

In each row that column N (Sheet name is Sales) is empty I want to copy
columns A:T to another worksheet (Sheet Name is Carryovers) starting at A2
Hope this is clear enough

many thanks in advance

This might work

Sub terrain()
Dim sh1 As Worksheet, sh2 As Worksheet
Dim lr1 As Long, lr2 As Long, rng As Range
Set sh1 = Sheets("Sales")
Set sh2 = Sheets("Carryovers")
lr = sh1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = sh1.Range("N1:N" & lr)
For Each c In rng
If c.Value = "" Then
Range("A" & c.Row).Resize(1, 21).Copy _
sh2.Range("A" & sh2.Cells(Rows.Count, 1) _
.End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row)
End If
Next
End Sub

Here is a considerably shorter (and I believe much faster) macro which does
what your macro does...

Sub terranean()
On Error Resume Next
Intersect(Sheets("Sales").Columns("A:T"), Sheets("Sales"). _
Columns("N").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks). _
EntireRow).Copy Sheets("Carryovers").Range("A2")
End Sub

Rick Rothstein was thinking very hard :

On Error Resume Next
Intersect(Sheets("Sales").Columns("A:T"), Sheets("Sales"). _
Columns("N").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks). _
EntireRow).Copy Sheets("Carryovers").Range("A2")
End Sub

Now, Rick, I thought I was going to beat you to this one. Not surprised
I didn't, ..just a bit disappointed in myself for not getting my reply
finalized sooner. (It's been a distracting day today)

Anyway, I just thought I'd let you know that I'm learning a lot from
your posts, and so my disappoinment is offset by the discovery that I
was about to duplicate what you posted. Credit goes to you for that!
Thanks for all the good learning content that you post!

Hello Rick and Garry
Seems like you guys are a bit competitive...Keep up the great work. I am
also learning a lot from all the posts here. The first code sample had a
minor error.
Sub MoveCarryOvers()
Dim sh1 As Worksheet, sh2 As Worksheet
Dim lr1 As Long, rng As Range
Dim c As Object
Set sh1 = Sheets("Sales")
Set sh2 = Sheets("Carry overs")
lr1 = sh1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = sh1.Range("N1:N" & lr1)
For Each c In rng
If c.Value = "" Then
Range("A" & c.Row).Resize(1, 21).Copy _
sh2.Range("A" & sh2.Cells(Rows.Count, 1) _
.End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row)
End If
Next
End Sub

Rick's sample definitely runs noticably faster. Thank Rick.

My next question is this.

How do I clear rows with an entry in column N?

Hi Alan,
Rick and I aren't competing; he's the veteran, I'm the newbie. That
said, I like his coding and aspire to be as good as he is some day, and
so the competition is with myself and my VB[A} skills.

<<How do I clear rows with an entry in column N?>>
What do you mean by 'clear rows'? Do you mean ClearContents or Delete?
Do you want to do it during the MoveCarryOvers routine OR after that
routine is done. (During will be a bit tricky if deleting rows)

Basically it would involve repeating the process with ClearContents OR
EntireRow.Delete

Hi Garry
I thought of it more a frienldy rivalry but it's great to have someone to
look up to like Rick. if you are a newbie then i am still wearing
nappies...LOL

Perhaps i should explain in more detail.

In short we need to clear the delivered cars from last months carryover
sheet leaving undelivered cars before adding this months to the carryover
sheet.

Your code does this exactly how we need it. My first post was not quite
correct in that I said moving to A2 was OK forgetting that some data may need
to remain. Maybe Rick's code is faster but can it be modified to add data
after the last used row?

ClearContents (Columns A:T)would be better as sometimes there maybe other
information after column T. This would be a separate operation before moving
carryovers

This is just a part of the end of month sales log update. I already have
most of the other code in place.
Steps are
1. Archive Sales sheet (create a copy and name it)
2 . Remove delivered cars from Carryovers Sheet
3. Move carryovers from sales
4. Clear sales sheet

Many thanks to everyone who gives their time to help.

[Rick Rothstein]

Okay, let me see if I have this straight. There is data on the Sales sheet
in Columns A thru T and also in some columns after Column T as well. You
want to move only those rows between Columns A thru T for those rows where
Column N is empty over to the Carryovers sheet. When you are completely
done, only those rows from your original data (all columns) on the Sales
sheet where Column N is empty will remain on the Sales sheet (that is, at
the end, all cells in Column N on the Sales sheet will be empty). If this is
correct, give the following macro a try...

Sub ProcessCarryovers()
On Error Resume Next
With Sheets("Sales")
.Columns("N").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireRow. _
Copy Sheets("Carryovers").Range("A2")
.Range("A2", .Cells(.Rows.Count, .Columns.Count)).Clear
End With
With Sheets("Carryovers")
.Columns("N").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks). _
EntireRow.Copy Sheets("Sales").Range("A2")
.Range("U2", .Cells(.Rows.Count, .Columns.Count)).Clear
End With
End Sub

Since I'm not 100% sure of this, make sure you test the macro on a copy of
your workbook (or, if you use your original workbook, make sure not to save
it) until you are sure it does what you want. Just so you know, what this
macro does is copy the **entire** row for the blank cells in Column N over
to your Carryovers sheet, then it clears everything except the header row
from the Sales sheet (you do have a header row on it, right?), then it
copies the entire rows from the Carryovers sheet back to the Sales sheet,
and then finally it clears Columns U thru to the last Column on the
Carryovers sheet so that only the date in Columns A thru T remains.

Anyway, I just thought I'd let you know that I'm learning a

lot from your posts,

I am glad you are able to get some useful ideas and techniques from the
postings I provide on these newsgroups and that you are able to incorporate
them in your own work. Given that, you will probably find the approach I
used in my last posting back to the OP of some interest.

Since you find my postings instructive in some small ways, I just want to
give you a heads up that there is a chance I will cease my volunteer efforts
starting in October. I have a strong feeling that I will not have my MVP
status renewed when it comes up for renewal in October. I'm sure you, as
well as others, question what my having MVP status would have to do with my
continuing to volunteer answering questions on newsgroups which, of course,
I can do with or without the MVP recognition. This is true, but my
volunteering efforts take up a lot of my time... time I could be using to
pursue some of my many other interests. So, you will probably ask, why don't
I just stop now? The MVP award is given for activities performed in the year
prior to its being awarded. This has never made sense to me... after being
given the honor of being able to sign myself as an MVP, there is no
obligation to continuing doing a "good job" afterwards. Well, I have an
internal "something" that won't let me do that. I figure that if I have been
given the honor of being able to sign myself as an MVP, then I should
continue trying to perform at the same level that won me the honor in the
first place. So, while this is not Microsoft's position, I **personally**
consider receiving the honor as binding on me to continue performing at the
same level (or better) as I did the year before. If I should not be
re-awarded in October, as I suspect will probably happen, then I will
consider myself free of this "self-imposed" obligation and this, in return,
would allow me to pursue those other activities I have put off for, oh, some
eight years now. If I am re-awarded, then I'll be back as active as ever;
but if I am not re-awarded, then I won't. As I said, just a heads up in case
you need it.

Hi Rick
Thanks for the quick response.
The sales sheets contains the current month sales and is emptied at the end
of each month. No problems doing that.

Before updating the carryover sheet we need to clear the delivered cars on
that sheet(Column N will have data-salesperson's initials.) leaving the rows
where column N is empty.

First we need some code to do this.
Then we need to copy the carryovers from the sales sheet to the last used
row on the carryovers sheet.
Garry's code sample does this part exactly how we want it but is slower than
your sample ( not suitable as it overwrites existing data). Not sure if there
is a faster macro to do what your example does but puts the data in the last
used row.

Good luck in your endeavours whatever the outcome of your MVP status is. My
philosophy on voluntary activities is simple. If it stops being enjoyable
then give it away.

Cheers

Alan

Yes, your last posting is very interesting indeed, and makes perfect
sense to me. It seems my own thinking is forming a similar pattern
after studying many of your postings. I think that's a good thing
overall, but there's times when it's a challenge to get things where
they fall into place as well as you seem to put them. I'm determined to
get there, though!

Thanks for the 'heads up'! I completely understand where you're coming
from. I suppose I should consider doing the same but it's hard to do
most things anymore since I'm forced to spend most my waking hours in a
wheelchair. (I have ALS ..$%^!) Anyway, between here and the VB forum
I've learned so much from all you MVPs, and so I feel I owe it to the
community to give something back. I'm a machinist/toolmaker by
profession but since I can't work at that anymore I decided to teach
myself programming (other than CNC programming) so I could turn some of
my Excel solutions into something anyone could use. My formal ed during
high school and college was business, majoring in accounting and bus.
management. I worked as a cost accountant and forensic auditor for a
fortune500 company after college, but decided I could put my formal ed
to better use working for myself. (that was back in the late 60's!)
Thus, I made a business of working at my hobby. I started using Excel
in v4 while I was teaching at community college. (They were switching
to M$O from Corel Suite) I wish I had put more time into it back then
but I had a business to look after when I wasn't teaching. I started
using VBA on Thanksgiving weekend of 2003, when I picked up my first
book by JWalk. In June 2004 I met Rob Bovey via email and have been a
devotee of the Bovey, Bullen, Green movement ever since. I can't thank
Rob enough for all the help and support he's given to my learning
process. This also extends to all the 'vets' in the NGs. I've read 10s
of thousands of postings and only this year did I start using a
newsreader. Man.., I wish I had done that long, long ago! -website UI
sucks compared to this!

I've been worried that this NG shutdown fiasco might mean losing
contact with the pros I've grown to respect over these past few years.
I'm saddened by your heads up, frankly. Your contributions will be
truly missed! I certainly will appreciate the remaining time you stick
with it all that much more. However, I do sincerely wish you best of
best wishes for your future plans. I promise I will be your fan for
life, and I'll work diligently to prove myself worthy of this honor.

Kind regards,
Garry

See inline comments....

Thanks for the quick response.
The sales sheets contains the current month sales and is emptied at the
end
of each month. No problems doing that.

Okay, so you start off the month with a completely blank sheet (except for
the column headers).

Before updating the carryover sheet we need to clear the delivered cars on
that sheet(Column N will have data-salesperson's initials.) leaving the
rows
where column N is empty.
First we need some code to do this.

Why? (See the rest of my comments before answering this.)

Then we need to copy the carryovers from the sales sheet to the
last used row on the carryovers sheet.

For the code I posted, leaving the rows where Column N cells have entries in
them does not interfere with moving the data for those rows where Column N
cells are blank. What I am having trouble visualizing is what should be
remaining on the Sales sheet **after** the data in Columns A thru T is moved
to the Carryovers sheet. I thought you were saying the carried over data
plus any other columns associated with it should remain (you mentioned
something about data in columns after Column T). That is what the last macro
I posted does. Can you clarify this point for me? The key thing from my
standpoint (as someone who does not know your business model) is in
understanding what you have on your two sheets before you start the macro
and what you want to have on those sheets after the macro is done. I though
I understood it all when I supplied my last macro, but now I am not so sure.
So, if you can clarify what you have before the macro and what you what
afterwards, that would be helpful.

Garry's code sample

I think you mean JLGWhiz's code sample... Garry did not post any code to

.....does this part exactly how we want it but is slower than
your sample ( not suitable as it overwrites existing data). Not sure if
there
is a faster macro to do what your example does but puts the data in the
last
used row.

Okay, I may have missed the "existing data" part in your earlier posts
(mainly because you said to put the data starting in A2 on the Carryovers
sheet). Are you saying the carryovers (Column N cells are empty) are
cumulative over on the Carryovers sheet? That is, is there already data on
the Carryovers sheet that the new data needs to be placed after? If so, it
is easy enough to modify either of my codes to do that, but I don't know
which of my macros you actually need. Once you provide the clarification I
asked for above, I will know how to respond to you.

Good luck in your endeavours whatever the outcome of your MVP status
is. My philosophy on voluntary activities is simple. If it stops being
enjoyable
then give it away.

Oh, don't get me wrong, answering Excel questions on newsgroups is most
enjoyable to me, but there are other things that I find equally enjoyable as
well but which I don't pursue because of the time commitment. I used to be a
prolific contributor to various anagramming websites in the past (one site
that cataloged some of my earlier work is
www.anagramgenius.com/agasearch.phtml?query=Rick+Rothstein&type=author and
you can Google my name and the word anagrams to see others), but my efforts
have been way down on this front for several years now; there is this
president of a company I know that makes a programming language compiler who
has been after me for years adopt his language and offer my "talents" (if
that is the right word) in support of it; I enjoy photography (mostly family
events) and using Photoshop to "fix" the pictures; and so on, and so on.
There is lots I like to do and not enough time to do it all in. The MVP
award has kept me tethered to the Microsoft world, but if I should lose that
status (which for various reasons I think may happen), I would consider
myself free to explore things outside of Excel.

Yes, your last posting is very interesting indeed, and makes perfect sense
to me. It seems my own thinking is forming a similar pattern after
studying many of your postings.

There are some (many?) who would question whether that is a good thing or

I think that's a good thing overall, but there's times when it's a
challenge
to get things where they fall into place as well as you seem to put them.

Hey, don't think for a moment the solutions I post come to me fully formed.
The way my mind works is I see an "outline" (but no details) of the approach
I think will work... I have to fight to get everything to work together
correctly also. That part, to me, is the fun part of programming.

I'm determined to get there, though!

Desire is the first and most important step in accomplishing, well, pretty
much anything. Since you have it, then I am sure you will succeed.

Thanks for the 'heads up'! I completely understand where you're
coming from. I suppose I should consider doing the same but it's
hard to do most things anymore since I'm forced to spend most
my waking hours in a wheelchair. (I have ALS ..$%^!)

I am really very sorry to hear this. I hope the progress of this terrible
disease goes as well as possible for you.

Anyway, between here and the VB forum I've learned so much
from all you MVPs

I used to be an MVP for the compiled version of the classic version of VB
(from VB3 to VB6) before moving over to the Excel world. Perhaps you came
across some of my earlier VB postings in your Google searches.

... and so I feel I owe it to the community to give something back.

Your participation is most welcome.

I'm a machinist/toolmaker by profession but since I can't work at that
anymore I decided to teach myself programming (other than CNC
programming) so I could turn some of my Excel solutions into
something anyone could use. My formal ed during high school and
college was business, majoring in accounting and bus. management.

I was a math major in college.

I worked as a cost accountant and forensic auditor for a fortune500
company after college, but decided I could put my formal ed to better
use working for myself. (that was back in the late 60's!)

I worked for 32-1/2 years with the New Jersey Department of Transportation
here in the US before retiring. The first half of that time was spent
designing roads (I'm a Licensed Professional <Civil> Engineer) and the
latter half in the department's CADD Development group (providing
programming supporting for the engineers and draftsmen in their use of the
system).

Thus, I made a business of working at my hobby. I started using Excel in
v4 while I was teaching at community college. (They were switching to M$O
from Corel Suite) I wish I had put more time into it back then but I had a
business to look after when I wasn't teaching.

I moved to Excel solely to be able to continue offering VB help in the
newsgroups. The classic VB newsgroups started to become very slow about five
years ago or so, mainly because of the introduction of VB.NET five years
before that and Microsoft's de-emphasizing of the classic version of VB as a
result. I figured I could apply what I knew about VB programming to the very
active Excel macro world, so I started posting in both worlds for awhile
(using the time to learn parts of the Excel object model) and eventually
changed my MVP discipline from VB to Excel.

I started using VBA on Thanksgiving weekend of 2003, when I picked
up my first book by JWalk.

You remember the exact date? Good memory! I have no idea what the date was
when I started in on Excel.

In June 2004 I met Rob Bovey via email and have been a devotee
of the Bovey, Bullen, Green movement ever since. I can't thank Rob enough
for all the help and support he's given to my learning process. This also
extends to all the 'vets' in the NGs

Yes, there are some very talented individuals involved in the Excel
community and the Internet offers remarkable access to all of them.

Man.., I wish I had done that long, long ago! -website UI sucks
compared to this! I've read 10s of thousands of postings and
only this year did I start using a newsreader.

Yes, I like the newsreader access much better than the website access as
well.

I've been worried that this NG shutdown fiasco might mean losing contact
with the pros I've grown to respect over these past few years.

I am **not** looking forward to the newsgroup shutdowns either... I find the
newsreader approach far more comfortable to use, but I guess I will have to
get used to the forum approach as that is where Microsoft has decided to
take us all. I wouldn't worry about the losing contact with the "pros" as I
expect they will move their volunteering efforts over to the forums when the
newsgroups close down.

I'm saddened by your heads up, frankly. Your contributions will be truly
missed! I certainly will appreciate the remaining time you stick with it
all that much more.

There is always the chance I won't be leaving. Microsoft might renew my MVP
status in October... if they do, I expect I would continue in the Excel
forums. I only gave the heads up because I don't think the volume of my
posting this year will be enough to re-qualify... I had to take nearly a
month off to attend to a problem that needed fixing in my house and then
there is an upcoming family wedding stealing some of my time as well. Maybe
the volume of my postings from now to October will make up for the earlier
deficit, but I kind of doubt it. Anyway, we will see what will be.

However, I do sincerely wish you best of best wishes for your
future plans. I promise I will be your fan for life, and I'll work
diligently to prove myself worthy of this honor.

Thank you for the kind words and sentiments... they are much appreciated.

Hi Rick
Sorry I wasn't clear enough.

The Sub Terranean macro is the quickest but we need to put the data after
some existings data. That's the one that I hope can be modified.

Also need a macro to clear data from the carryover sheet where column N has
a value. This macro will be run before the one to move the data from sales.


Cheers

Alan

 

[Rick Rothstein]

Here is a revision for Sub Terranean for you to try...

Sub Terranean()
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = Sheets("Carryovers").Cells.Find(What:="*", _
SearchOrder:=xlRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, _
LookIn:=xlValues).Row
On Error Resume Next
Intersect(Sheets("Sales").Columns("A:T"), Sheets("Sales"). _
Columns("N").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks). _
EntireRow).Copy Sheets("Carryovers").Cells(LastRow + 1, "A")
End Sub

 

[Rick Rothstein]

Also need a macro to clear data from the carryover sheet where
When you say "clear", I am assuming you mean to delete the entire row so
that no gaps appear in your data rows. You can use this macro to delete the
rows of data on the Carryovers sheet where Column N has a value placed in
it...

Sub ject()
Sheets("Carryovers").Range("N2:N" & Rows.Count). _
SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants).EntireRow.Delete
End Sub

Isn't that the truth!

Well, the ALS know-it-alls can't figure out why I'm still here. They
claim my passion for my work is what keeps me going. (I was diagnosed
Mar '95 after 2+ years of tests)

I am really very sorry to hear this. I hope the progress of this terrible
disease goes as well as possible for you.

Thanks for the sentiment! What would make me happy is if its progress
doesn't go so well!<g> That way I'll live longer!<bg>

Yes, your name is familiar from both NGs.

Your participation is most welcome.

Thanks! I'll do my best to make it worthy of membership!

I was a math major in college.

I was a math failure until I started having to use it every day whether
I liked to or not.

I worked for 32-1/2 years with the New Jersey Department of Transportation
here in the US before retiring. The first half of that time was spent
designing roads (I'm a Licensed Professional <Civil> Engineer) and the latter
half in the department's CADD Development group (providing programming
supporting for the engineers and draftsmen in their use of the system).

That's interesting. When I first started programming in VBA, it was
while working for one of the major engine rebuilding equipment
manufacturers, designing machine fixtures and specialty tooling. I've
been using CADD software since the late 80's. I still do some free
lance stuff. During those years I got a chance to work with many
programs, some mickey mouse but most fairly serious (AutoCad, ME10/ME30
(Unix), CadKey, SolidWorks, ..to name a few) I now just use SolidWorks.

CNC machining programming was all I was familiar with before getting
into VBA.

I moved to Excel solely to be able to continue offering VB help in the
newsgroups. The classic VB newsgroups started to become very slow about five
years ago or so, mainly because of the introduction of VB.NET five years

changed my MVP discipline from VB to Excel.

Well, I'm sure glad you're here!

You remember the exact date? Good memory! I have no idea what the date was
when I started in on Excel.

I remember because it seems like a week ago or so. Hey.., I'm a newbie,
and so it goes that I should still remember!

Damn, I forgot the On Error statement (needed in case all of Column N is
blank)...

Sub ject()
On Error Resume Next
Sheets("Carryovers").Range("N2:N" & Rows.Count). _
SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants).EntireRow.Delete
End Sub

 

[ajm1949]

Hi Rick
Sorry to say that the new code samples seem to be missing something as they
don't work.

Revised Sub terranean come up with error 9 subscript out of range with the
lastrow=etc highlighted as the culprit.

Sub ject macro does nothing at all

I am using excel 2003 with all the latest service packs an updates

Cheers
Alan
