Macro to filter copy and paste to another wor Closed

Question

Hello,

I am a novice in macros.

I am trying to create a macro that finds a number in one workbook then goes to another workbook, filters the data using that number and copies and pastes the data of the selected rows back to the first workbook.

The data is in a spreadsheet called "Lines" (in one workbook). The other workbook with a spreadsheet called "Anlines".

In "Anlines" Row1 Column A is an account number.

I want to read this account number.
Goto the other workbook (spreadsheet "Lines") , filters the column "J" to find this account number.

Then copies all the filtered rows into the "Anlines" spreadsheet starting from 3rd row.

Is it possible?

Thanks for your help.

Regards
KM

Thanks for that but the two files/workbooks already exist and I am looking for the actual macro that will cut and paste between the workbooks.

you will find two Macros in the same VB Script file, so you can select first and copy the code and then go to another macro and select( you will find in the same script file) paste it.
