Hello,
Good day.

I need some advices on how to copy and paste data upon mouse click.

I have a set of data on A2 to A10. When I hit cell B1 which contain the word "January", the data will be copied into B2 to B10. If I hit cell D1 which contain the word "March", then the data will be copied into D2 to D10.

In another word, I would like to have the data copied and pasted into the columns that I have clicked.

Appreciate the advice from everyone.

Thank you.

Best regards,
wliang

Hi Wliang,

I assumed you have one column for each month, so the code will only be activated when a cell in the range B1:M1 is selected.

This code should do the trick: 
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("B1:M1")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Range("A2:A10").Copy Destination:=Cells(2, Target.Column)
End Sub

If you would like the code to work for the entire first row then change
Range("B1:M1") into Rows(1).

Best regards,
Trowa

Hi Trowa,

Thanks for your advice. The codes work just fine.

Can I apply these codes to a text box as well, i.e. when a textbox is clicked, the codes will be activated? Please advise.

Thanking you in advance for your help.

Best regards,
wliang

Hi Wliang,

You can activate the code by double clicking the textbox, but how does Excel know which column to paste in? Would an inputbox be something?

Try this: 
Private Sub TextBox1_DblClick(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
On Error Resume Next
Range("A2:A10").Copy Destination:=Cells(2, InputBox("Please enter column letter:", "What is the destination column?"))
End Sub


Best regards,
Trowa
