You can use Visual Basic for Applications in Excel to transfer data from one workbook to another Excel workbook automatically.
The process is simple once you understand the steps. It involves creating 3 variables or containers for data. Now we transfer the data from one workbook to the variables. Next we open the other workbook, locate the correct empty row and then the appropriate cells. Here we finally transfer the data from the variables into the cells and automatically save the workbook.
Get a cup of tea or coffee or a diet coke and just work through the code. It's easy!

Thank you for this video, it has been mighty helpful.
However, I am having trouble with adding more than one entry set. What would you add to the code so that you can put multiple item names and prices at a time, instead of one by one? I am creating new variables, but only the last entry is being displayed.
Hello Sir
this tutorial is very useful.
But I have one question, can the marco update the "posting.xlsx" without open it?
Thank you
Great video!! Thank you very much
Glad it helped!
Thank You Sir!
Thank you so much, you are really great. 👍
Most welcome 😊
Instead of the RowIndex use the ColumnIndex. Hope this helps!
Thanks it really helped me, but the data I have to copy from input file is changed every day means I have new file every. So how to select file
very useful code, excellent.
Hello Dinesh, I have viewed all the recommended videos and still can not find a solution to my problem. I can not get the code to transfer to a specific worksheet based on my criteria. In Column "G" there is a number (29, 50, 75, or 100). Depending on what number is in "G2" in current workbook, I need to have the entire row copied to the specific worksheet in the master workbook to the next blank row in that worksheet. The worksheets are already named, I just need to have the data transferred to the correct worksheet. I currently have a code that is working to transfer from current workbook to master workbook, but I can not get the multiple criteria to work for me.
Thanks for videos could you please explain the logic of writing these vba project?
This video was very helpful for me at work, thank you!
I have one question: After the VBA code saves the file that the data was transferred into I have it set to .Close the file (which also works), but after that I want the original worksheet (i.e. your video "enterData") to print and then delete the information. Can you help with this please?
thanks a lot.
very useful , thanks a lot , Edward,
Excelllent help.
hi sir i am riza from philippines, i am your no.1 follower. i currently working as accounting assistant and you are a big help to me. your tutorial is very clear.keep it up sir..thank you a lot!
Welcome!
Thank you for all of your videos. They have been very helpful to me. I have a question regarding this VBA code. What happen if I have more than two columns of data to transfer? I have a total of 14 columns of data for each record that I need to transfer over to a data collection workbook or worksheet. I have used the code you've written on another video of yours but added the additional Dim's for the additional columns but I keep getting such errors as "Type Mismatch" and "Overflow". Can you please help me? Thank you again.
Many thanks
This is fascinating: I do though have question, as I am working on a similar issue. My example/issue is I have one workbook with 6 worksheets, I am looking to copy the data within each worksheet, with a conditional value parameter , then export each worksheet to a existing /new workbook and into a pre-defined tab. Any recommendation.
Thank you for the guidance - after a few tweaks got the spreadsheet to work exactly as your instructions - brilliant.
Now comes my poser - I have multiple users - two input data, the rest works on the information just input and is therefore shared by approx 30 users. Each person can be at a different stages in the master file but using this code it appears to open up every time data is input stopping others from working - can it be amended in any way
You suggested to get a cup of tea or coffee or a diet coke. Oh my goodness for this I had to pour some Vodka. Thank you.
Thnks a lot sir,
GOOD TUTORIAL..
Glad you liked it. Please share with your friends too.

Hi Dinesh,
I created a purchase order and I retrieve my data sets from a listbox, which I created in Userform. When I export the data from the listbox it looks for the next available cell; however I would like the data to be transferred into selected cells like A20, B20,C20 D20, E20, F20, G20.
How can I transfer the data set into selected cells?
Please advise...

If instead of price I have date what will be the command instead of 'single' in vba ?
Question.
I have a workbook with 5 sheets named for each day of the week.
How do I copy an open sheet to another workbook? Since like today is Tuesday and to copy it, but tomorrow is a different day and that too will be copied when that day is here.
So how do I copy each of these days sheets when I have one open?
If this makes sense
Compare today's date 'day name' with the worksheet name and then copy. You can get the day's name like so:
sDayName = Format(Date, "dddd")
where sDayName is a string variable.
Try this: instead of the RowIndex use the Columnindex in the cell(x,y) OR just use the Range("A4:A1023") and Range ("R4:R1023") property.

Hello Sir, first thank you so much for all your tutorials...they have helped me a great deal:-) Can you please show me how to transfer data from one workbook to a master workbook and based on the criteria of column "G" copy the data to that specific worksheet?

Hi Dinesh, Thank you for your videos. and your help. I do have a question. Is it possible to save to another workbook and to the next empty worksheet available? Thank you very much
Frank Raimondi www.exceltrainingvideos.com/how-to-transfer-data-from-one-excel-workbook-to-another-automatically/www.exceltrainingvideos.com/copy-paste-multiple-rows-of-data-from-one-workbook-to-another-using-excel-vba/www.exceltrainingvideos.com/copy-data-to-another-excel-workbook-based-on-criteria-using-vba/
I looked at these before and I could not see how you would find the next empty worksheet in that workbook that I would like to save the sheet to. In other words, I am trying to make a workbook " Book1", sheet 1, as a fill in the blanks form. When they are finished filling in the sheet they would click a button and it would put the contents of that sheet to another workbook "Book2" into the first empty sheet and name that sheet from one of the cells in that worksheet. Is this possible? It sounds crazy.
Just specify the cells or row where you want the data to be placed in your code.
Try this
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A2").Copy
erow = Sheet2.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
ActiveSheet.Paste Destination:=Worksheets("Sheet2").Range(Cells(erow, 1)
Thank you for this video. It is very helpful. I am looking to modify the VBA code to have members of my team change the Workbooks' names that that Master Workbook will reference. For example, I wanted the Master Workbook to have a Worksheet called "Names" and another called "Data". The "Names" worksheet would reference the file location and the different Workbooks that I want the VBA code to reference instead of hard-coding in VBA. Is it possible to have a VBA that references an entered cell value as a part of it's formula?
Have tried a 'Link'?
I have 2013 version, I am not seeing the "developer" icon. where is it?
nice
Hi Sir,
If I want to change the item price but keep the item name every time I update it, what should I do. the program now update the item name and price every time you click the commend button into a new line. what if for example, I have the item name : intel with price of $50, I posted it to the post to the postings workbook, but later I found the price was wrong, I need to update the price to $100 but I don't want to post it to the new line in postings workbook, I want to update the one in the postings workbook already.
Thanks,
Hi I am new in this Excel VBA and I have the following issueand would like you to help me:-
1. The line of "Rowcount" was popped up and asked me to declair variable. But it stopped after I place the line "Dim RowCount as Interger" at the top. However, it funny enough the error stopped again after I changed it to a note. Why is this happen when no command call "Rowcount"?
2. The error code Run-time Error "438" and the error pointed at the command line "With Worksheet....."
Thank you.
Dear Sir,
I have tried to slightly adapt your code so that it sends the data of interest to a different worksheet (in the same workbook) rather than a new workbook. BUT, I seem to be encountering a Runtime Error 9 before it even gets to the adapted code. Can you please advise? I can send you the workbook if that is easier...
Sub SendSummary()
Dim invoice As Single
Dim invoicedate As Date
Dim customer As String
Dim purchaseprice As Single
Dim postage As Single
Dim cost As Single
Worksheets("Sheet2").Select
invoice = ("g4")
Worksheets("sheet2").Select
invoicedate = ("g3")
Worksheets("sheet2").Select
customer = ("a15")
Worksheets("sheet2").Select
purchaseprice = ("k30")
Worksheets("sheet2").Select
postage = ("k31")
Worksheets("sheet2").Select
cost = ("l30")
Set Summary = Worksheets("sheet1").Select
Worksheets("sheet1").Select
Worksheets("sheet1").rage("a1").Select
RowCount = Worksheets("sheet1").Range("a1").CurrentRegion.Rows.Rows.Count
With Worksheets("sheet1").Range("a1")
.Offset(ColCount, 0) = invoice
.Offset(ColCount, 1) = invoicedate
.Offset(ColCount, 2) = customer
.Offset(ColCount, 3) = purchaseprice
.Offset(ColCount, 4) = postage
.Offset(ColCount, 11) = cost
