    Duplicate data to another .xls file automatically

    Hello,

    I need to duplicate some information from an *.xls file to another *.xls file automatically, everytime user closes the Main file it should check and copy the new inserted data to another file.

    I attached two files, Main.xls and Copy.xls

    For example:

    The information is inserted in Main.xls, now when smb closes the file it should check if A & B columns in the Copy.xls have the same data as in Y & Z column after that it should copy the data from AB & AC column of Main.xls to J & L colmun of Copy.xls file.

    I hope I made myself understood, if not, I will do my best to rephrase, but better take a look at the files.

    Thank you in advance.

    Couple of questions/comments

    You left out some information
    ........have the same data as in Y & Z column after that it ....
    This should be:
    ........have the same data as in Y & Z column of the MAIN workbook after that it..........

    Also do you want to overwrite the existing data on columns J & L or copy after the bottom row on those same columns? (ie replace or add?)

    Also if the data is the same, do want to do nothing?

    Yes, of the MAIN workbook .

    It should add the data, in the example I gave it already had the information, but for future they will be blank.

    Nothing.

    "It should add the data, in the example I gave it already had the information, but for future they will be blank."

    So you want to overwrite any data in those columns?

    Doesn't matter, because columns J & L will be blank anyway in the original Copy.xls
