I am trying to add to add date from a Userform on one workbook to another workbook that holds my data. Here is the code I have currently:

VBA Code:
Private Sub imgGenerate_Click()
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim x As Integer
With Sheet12 'Worksheets("Sample Router")
    .Range("INV").Value = cntrl5.Value
    .Range("SON").Value = cntrl6.Value
    .Range("Cust").Value = cntrl8.Value
    .Range("IDate").Value = cntrl7.Value
    .Range("EDate").Value = cntrl4.Value
    .Range("RouterX").Value = (.Range("RouterX").Value + 1)
    '.Range("A1:O62").PrintOut
End With
On Error GoTo Err
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

    With Application
        .DisplayAlerts = False
        .Visible = False
        .ScreenUpdating = False
    End With
    
    Set wb = Workbooks.Open(Filename:="C:\Users\caleb.owen\Documents\Cordial FileTracker tobezip\XLDataBaseforCordial.xlsm")
    Set ws = wb.Worksheets("Sheet1")
    
    'find first empty row in database
    'iRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
    iRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
    'copy the data to the database
    ws.Cells(iRow, 0).Value = Me.cntrl1.Value
    ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value = Me.cntrl2.Value
    ws.Cells(iRow, 3).Value = Me.cntrl5.Value
    ws.Cells(iRow, 4).Value = Me.cntrl6.Value
    ws.Cells(iRow, 5).Value = Me.cntrl7.Value
    ws.Cells(iRow, 6).Value = Me.cntrl8.Value
    ws.Cells(iRow, 7).Value = Me.cntrl4.Value
    ws.Cells(iRow, 8).Value = Me.cntrl9.Value
    ws.Cells(iRow, 9).Value = Me.cntrl3.Value
    ws.Cells(iRow, 10).Value = Me.cntrl10.Value
Err:
    Workbooks("XLDataBaseforCordial.xlsm").Close True
    
With Sheet12 'Worksheets("Sample Router")
    .Range("INV").Value = ""
    .Range("SON").Value = ""
    .Range("Cust").Value = ""
    .Range("IDate").Value = ""
    .Range("EDate").Value = ""
End With
cntrl2.Value = Sheet12.Range("RouterV").Value
For x = 5 To 10
Me.Controls("cntrl" & x).Value = ""
Next x
End Sub

It is not populating correctly at all. It will only add the data to the first line then it will stop.

Try removing the error handler, that way you can see if there are any errors.
I'm surprised anything gets added to the database

I am curious why you are surprised?

Because I would have though the error handler would kick-in before anything is written to the database sheet.

I did get an error - 1004. On this ws.Cells(iRow, 0).Value = Me.cntrl1.Value line of code.

Why is that? I am not greatly experienced in VBA -- only do I know some weird, quirky things.

You cannot have a column 0, it should presumably be
Rich (BB code):
ws.Cells(iRow, 1)

What is the "COLOR?" That does not belong in the code.

I do not get the error anymore:)
