Hello,

I have an excel sheet (Sht1) with data in one format -
A2,B2,C3,D2
A3
A4
A5,B5,c5,d5
A6
A7
A8,B8,C8,D8
A9
A10

I need to transfer the data to another sheet in the following format - to be able to sort
A2,B2,C3,D2,E2(Sht1-A3),F2(Sht1-A4)
A3,B3,C3,D3,E3(Sht1-A6),F3(Sht1-A7)
A4,B4,C4,D4,E4(Sht1-A9),F4(Sht1-A10)...etc.

I have started to transfer some of the data using the ='sheetname'!cellref format for each cell, and it works, but have not found a way to populate each cell in the downstream sheet in an efficient manner without typing the format in each cell independently. Is there away to copy this fomat efficeintly to 1000-4000 cells, or can this be a accomplished with VB code? Any help really appreciated. Thanks.

So if a row has only 1 column used (column A), then that needs to be copied to the the last row above it that had A-d column populated ? Ok it sound confusing. What I am trying to ask is that, row 1 has 4 columns populated, row 2 has only one, then row 3 has only one and row 4 has 4 columns populated
so row1 remains row 1
row2 gets removed and its value get populated in cell E of row 1
row 3 gets removed and its value get populated in cell F of row 1
row 4 remains same

The first part you are are understanding correctly. You would copy & combine the information from rows 2,3,&4 in sheet 1 into row 2 of sheet 2 and then take the next three rows, 5,6,& 7 and copy & combine the information from these rows in sheet 1 into row 3 of sheet 2. (The rows consist of Inventory part data in the 4 cells of the first row, personnel data in the first cell of the 2nd row, and Asset data in the first cell of the 3rd row then repeat over again in the following rows with Part, paeronnel & asset data.) I need to combine these 3 pcs from the first sheet and copy them into the same row of the next sheet for sorting. Thanks

There might be a possibility where multiple parts data rows exist before the personnel & asset exist. I also need to identify the parts data (4 cells) each time in sheet 1 and copy it at the start of a new row in sheet 2 each time followed by personnel & asset data , and not add it onto the end of a row already populated with parts data from the row before from sheet1. (there may be a chance multiple rows of parts data is scanned consecutively into rows in sheet 1 before personnel & asset data are scanned in the following rows.) Thnks

Could you post a sample workbook with how the data is and how you would look like on some shared site and post a link back here.

no problem here's the link.

the "071411 ScanSheet" tab contains an example of the inventory data scanned into the system, and the "071411 SortSheet" tab contains an example of how i want the data transferred over for sorting purposes later on.

Try this

   Dim wsSrc            As Worksheet

   sSrcSheet = "071411 ScanSheet"
   sDesSheet = "071411 SortSheet"
   
   lTotalSrcRow = getItemLocation("*", Sheets(sSrcSheet).Rows)
   If (lTotalSrcRow < 2) Then Exit Sub
   
   Set wsSrc = Worksheets(sSrcSheet)
   Set wsDes = Worksheets(sDesSheet)
   
   lDesRow = getItemLocation("*", wsDes.Rows)
   If lDesRow = 0 Then lDesRow = 1
   lSrcRow = 2
   Do While (lSrcRow <= lTotalSrcRow)
      If (wsSrc.Cells(lSrcRow, "B") <> vbNullString) _
      Then
         If (wsSrc.Cells(lSrcRow + 1, "B") = vbNullString) _
         Then

            wsSrc.Range(wsSrc.Cells(lSrcRow, "A"), wsSrc.Cells(lSrcRow, "D")).Copy
            wsDes.Cells(lDesRow, "A").PasteSpecial
            wsSrc.Cells(lSrcRow + 1, "A").Copy
            wsDes.Cells(lDesRow, "E").PasteSpecial
            wsSrc.Cells(lSrcRow + 2, "A").Copy

            lSrcRow = lSrcRow + 2
