Question

I’m new to the visual basics language and would like some help in writing some codes. So I’m trying to write a program that imports data from a spreadsheet and shifts current data over. So I have a spreadsheet file with 3 sheets. I would first delete the data in the third and last sheet, then cut and copy the data from the second sheet over to the third sheet and the first to the second. and then prompt the user to select a data file to import to the first sheet. How do I go about doing this ????
Thanks

Answer 1

You can access each cell by using

Cells(row,column)

Where the row and column are both numeric. You can set the values like this

Cell(row,column) = "This is a new value"

You can access the values like this

aString = cells(row,column)

If you want to copy data from one worksheet to another, this code will copy the first twenty six columns and rows from worksheet 2 to worksheet 3…

dim row as integer
dim column as integer

For column = 1 to 26
    For row = 1 to 26
        'Copy worksheet 3 value to worksheet 2's value
        Worksheets(3).cells(row,column)=Worksheets(2).cells(row,column)
        'Clear worksheet 2's values
        Worksheets(2).cells(row,column)=""
    Next
