Question

Below is my excl data:

A    B       c  ... F               G

1   test    vb1     testing1        open
2   test1   vb2     testing1        close
2   test2   vb3     testing1 
4   test3   vb4     testing1

I want to move F column data to B column and shift B column data to right; so before B will be C.

How can I do with this using Excel VBA programming?

Answer 1

Try this:

Option Explicit

Sub MoveColumns()

With ActiveSheet
    .Columns("F:F").Cut
    .Columns("B:B").Insert Shift:=xlToRight
    .Columns("C:C").Cut
    .Columns("E:E").Insert Shift:=xlToRight
End With
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub

To use this:

• open the Visual Basic Editor: Tools > Macro > Visual Basic Editor
• insert a module (right-click on VBAProject and Insert > Module)
• paste the above code in this new module.

You can then execute the code from Excel: Tools > Macro… > Macros…

[EDIT] Another try without copy-pasting

Option Explicit

Sub copyWithArray()
Dim lLastrow As Long
Dim aValues As Variant

With ActiveSheet
    lLastrow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "AE").Row
    'store data from the column F
    aValues = .Range("F1:F" & lLastrow).Value
    '"move" data a column further
    .Range("C1:AE" & lLastrow).Value = .Range("B1:AD" & lLastrow).Value
    'copy data from column C to column B
    .Range("B1:B" & lLastrow).Value = .Range("C1:C" & lLastrow).Value
    'restore data copied from column F to column B
    .Range("B1:B" & lLastrow).Value = aValues
End With
End Sub
