Moving Data into destination sheet and formatting output
I have my data in columns A:L in Sheet2 and wish to copy each block based on the starting point, as certain cell text and the end point, again as certain cell text! The data is in columns A:L and move down down block by block
The code I have is very nearly 100% complete, but the last part I am trying to achieve is to put each item in a specific order on the destination sheet. As we know columns are A:L I want to paste my first block into Columns A:L in the destination then the next one in M:X then the final one in Y:AJ.
As there are about 10 of these blocks, Tank Engine, Weatherman etc I envisage, that I will need three blocks first, then a about three rows which are gaps before it is then repeated.
An example of this
The rows are dynamic but never more than 11 in length. The code I have is
Option Explicit
Sub MIKE3()
Dim wsSrc As Worksheet 'define source
Set wsSrc = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
Dim wsDest As Worksheet 'define destination
Set wsDest = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2")
Dim FindList As Variant 'defind search words
FindList = Array("Tank Engine")
Dim i As Long
Dim FindItm As Variant
For Each FindItm In FindList
Dim CopyRange As Range
Set CopyRange = FindMyRange(wsSrc.Range("A:L"), FindItm, "INFORMATION: " & FindItm)
If Not CopyRange Is Nothing Then
CopyRange.Copy wsDest.Range("A1").Offset(ColumnOffset:=i) 'note that if the first column uses merged cells the ColumnOffset:=i otherwise it is ColumnOffset:=i*12
i = i + 1
End If
Next FindItm
End Sub
Function FindMyRange(SearchInRange As Range, ByVal StartString As String, ByVal EndString As String) As Range
'find start
Dim FoundStart As Range
Set FoundStart = SearchInRange.Find(What:=StartString, LookAt:=xlWhole)
If FoundStart Is Nothing Then GoTo ERR_NOTHING_FOUND
find end
Dim FoundEnd As Range
Set FoundEnd = SearchInRange.Find(What:=EndString, LookAt:=xlWhole, After:=FoundStart)
If FoundEnd Is Nothing Then GoTo ERR_NOTHING_FOUND
Set FindMyRange = SearchInRange.Parent.Range(FoundStart, FoundEnd).Resize(ColumnSize:=12)
Exit Function'
ERR_NOTHING_FOUND:
FindMyRange = Nothing
End Function
