macro script for IF & print functions

[rhua5436]

hi everyone,

I am trying to automate a print process.
In the attached sample spreadsheet, I would like to have a macro to perform this function:

IF sheet 1's cell a1 has a value or not, then sheet 2's cell a1 would equal sheet 1's cell a1, and print sheet 2.
IF next row's column 1 has a value, then sheet 2's cell a1 would equal sheet 1's cell a1, and print sheet 2.
This would continue until sheet 1's next row does not have any value present.

Can anyone please help me out on this? Thank you so much!

Hi TMShucks,

Thanks for your help! But im sorry, i incorrectly wrote out my requirement.

IF sheet 1's cell a1 has a value or not, then sheet 2's cell a1 would equal sheet 1's cell a1, and print sheet 2.
IF next row's column 1 (a2) has a value, then sheet 2's cell a1 would equal that cell's value (sheet1's a2), and print sheet 2.This would continue until sheet 1's next row does not have any value present.

Could you please help me modify the script you gave me? I tried.... but hopelessly failed.....

Thank you so much!

That's how I interpreted your question and that's what the code does ... although I have assumed the range of cells in column 1 has no gaps in it

This:

works out the last row in column A with data in it. If that were, say, 6, it would be the same as:

And the loop would be:

set the value of cell A1 in Sheet2 to the value in the "cell being processed".

prints it out, and:

loops around for the next value.


So, what is it that doesn't work? Does it fail because it tries to print a sheet with no data in it? Are the sheets actually called Sheet1 and Sheet2? Which cells actually have data in them? How would you like me to help you modify the script?

[rhua5436]

yes! you are right! it works
I ran the macro when i was in sheet 2 and it didn't work.
but when i ran the macro when sheet 1 was open, it worked.

Thank you so much for your help. Greatly appreciated!
