Compare Col A and Col M, if Match, Copy Col N to Col E

[ryguy7272]

I accidentally posted this in the Excel-Functions group; sorry all. Anyway,
I'm trying to get this macro to compare values in Column A and Column M,
starting in Cell(2, 13), and if there is a match, copy the value from Column
N (that corresponds to Column M) into Column E. For instance, 4/1/2008 is
in Cell A1 (and the dates go down consecutively). I have 4/6/2008 in M2 and
5,000,000 in N2. How can I get 5,000,000 into E6 (A6 contains 4/6/2008)?
Confused yet? I am.

Sub MatchAandM()
Dim Lrow As Long
Dim Rng As Range, i As Range, xRng As Range

Lrow = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
Set Rng = Range(Cells(2, 13), Cells(Lrow, 2))

For Each i In Rng
Set xRng = Rng.Find(What:=i.Offset(0, -1).Value, _
LookIn:=xlValues, MatchCase:=False)
If xRng Is Nothing Then
'Else
i.Offset(0, -1).Copy i.Offset(0, 1)
End If
Next i

End Sub


Thanks for the help; I truly appreciate it.

Regards,

Hi,

I think you said if A2=M2 then make E2 equal to N2

so right click the sheet tab, view code and paste this in

Sub MatchAandM()
Dim Lrow As Long
Dim Rng As Range, i As Range, xRng As Range
Lrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set Rng = Range("A2:A" & Lrow)
For Each i In Rng
If i.Value = i.Offset(0, 12).Value Then
i.Offset(0, 4).Value = i.Offset(0, 13).Value
End If
Next
End Sub

Sub MatchAandM()
Dim Lrow As Long
Dim RowCount As Long
Dim xRng As Range

Lrow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row

For RowCount = 2 To Lrow
FindVal = Range("A" & RowCount)
Set xRng = Columns("M:M").Find(What:=FindVal, _
LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole, MatchCase:=False)
If Not xRng Is Nothing Then
xRng.Offset(0, 1).Copy xRng.Offset(0, -8)
End If
Next RowCount

End Sub

Joel, its close. I realize now that didn't describe the problem well enough.
The dates are arranged in descending order in Col A. 4/1/2008 is in A1,
4/6/2008 is in A6 and 5/1/2008 is in A31. 4//2008 is in M2 and 5/1/2008 is
in M3. 5 is in N2 and 2 is in N3. I was hoping to match the dates in Col M
to those in Col A, and if there is a match, copy/paste the values in Col N to
the corresponding row in Col E. Thus, E6 would contain 5 and E31 would
contain 2.

I'll try to fiddle with your code, but I'm a bit lost with this one. If you
know how to modify the code to do what I was hoping to do, please make the
change and send it along...

I think you need only two changes

1) Data in column A starts in row 1 not 2

from
For RowCount = 2 To Lrow
to
For RowCount = 1 To Lrow


2) You want the data in column N to move to the row matching the data in
Column A (not column M)

from
xRng.Offset(0, 1).Copy xRng.Offset(0, -8)
to
xRng.Offset(0, 1).Copy Range("E" & RowCount)

That's it! Thank you so much!!

Mike,

I apologize for piggybacking into Joel's question but I want to do the same
thing but I have a row of data that I need to paste instead of just a cell.

In other words, if M match A then I want to copy N through S in E1. I have
3600 rows of data to match. If a data in M doesn't match any in A, paste N
through S in AA, sort of a collection area.

Thanks
