a complex solution to help mindless work

[bmarquez74]

on a daily basis I have lots of data that needs to be separated into various tabs. Example data below:

1	a	3	f	FEF
2	a	4	f	DFG
3	a	5	f	RET
4	a	3	f	FGH
5	a	7	f	ERT
6	a	3	f	DFG
7	a	4	f	ERT
8	a	3	f	DFG
9	a	6	f	DFG
10	a	3	f	ERTY

<tbody>
</tbody>

Based on the contents of the 3rd column, I need the whole line moved to a new spreadsheet within the workbook. For instance, if column 3 data is '4', I need both of those lines moved to another spreadsheet.

2	a	4	f	DFG
7	a	4	f	ERT

<tbody>
</tbody>

Is this possible? Ideally, I would like to have a macro that I can run to move all the data.

Sure it is possible, but you are going to have to tell us what sheets the various numbers in Column "C" move to.

Thanks Rick, Let's just assume generic names such as sheet1, sheet2, and sheet3.

I have been doing this volunteer stuff for quite some time now and I can assure you that doing what you suggest is usually a bad idea as it means more work for me later when you can't match the code and its loop iterations to your actual sheet names. I rather avoid that if you don't mind. I have trouble believing you do not already have the number-sheet name mappings, so I'll ask again... please tell them to us. Also, what sheet (name) is your main data on? Also, does your data really start on Row 1 as your example shows (that is, there is no header row)?

 

[bmarquez74]

The sheet that the main data is on is different all the time..I suppose we can change it prior to running the code. The the three sheets are labeled as [AT&T Feats] [AT&T Acts] [AT&T Ups]

There is a header row, so the data starts on Row 2. The data that will be checked is actually in Column H. Obviously, I'm not trying to make more work for you, but I do appreciate your assistance.
