Good day, Hope you would be able to assist. I got the following code from Use AutoFilter to filter and copy the results to a existing worksheet and would like to incorporate this into my VBA project. The problem however is that this code were written to perform on one workbook and this is where my problem is. My project is between two different workbooks and cannot seem to get this code modified to do what it is supposed to do between these two workbooks. Everything I have tried so far failed. In short what this code would do is to check the existing data on the one sheet (the source) and extract only the data which is meeting my set criteria, and copy this data to the destination sheet. This is what I would like to do between two workbooks. With this the sample code as provided by Ron de Bruin. The sample workbook could be accessed trough the following link http://www.rondebruin.nl/files/Copy5Code.zip. With this the code for matching and copying on one workbook.
Code:
Option Explicit
'<<<< Filter/Copy below the existing data of a existing worksheet(Sheet: RecordsOfTheNetherlands) >>>>>
'This example will copy the filter results below the existing data on the destination sheet.
'Note the sheet "RecordsOfTheNetherlands" must exist in your workbook.
'This example will not copy the header row each time so when you manual add the worksheet
'"RecordsOfTheNetherlands" to your workbook you must add the headers yourself on the first row.
'I commented the Delete line in this tester
'rng.EntireRow.Delete
'Remove the ' before the code line if you want to delete the records you copied
'Note: this example use the function LastRow in the ModReset module
Sub Copy_With_AutoFilter2()
'Note: This macro use the function LastRow
'Important: The DestSh must exist
Dim My_Range As Range
Dim DestSh As Worksheet
Dim CalcMode As Long
Dim ViewMode As Long
Dim FilterCriteria As String
Dim CCount As Long
Dim rng As Range
'Set filter range on ActiveSheet: A11 is the top left cell of your filter range
'and the header of the first column, D is the last column in the filter range.
'You can also add the sheet name to the code like this :
'Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A11:D" & LastRow(Worksheets("Sheet1")))
'No need that the sheet is active then when you run the macro when you use this.
Set My_Range = Range("A11:D" & LastRow(ActiveSheet))
My_Range.Parent.Select
'Set the destination worksheet
'Note: the sheet "RecordsOfTheNetherlands" must exist in your workbook.
Set DestSh = Sheets("RecordsOfTheNetherlands")

My_Range.Parent.ProtectContents = True Then

'In this case the range starts in A so Field 1 is column A, 2 = column B, ......

'This will use the cell value from A2 as criteria
'My_Range.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="=" & Range("A2").Value
''If you want to filter on a Inputbox value use this
'FilterCriteria = InputBox("What text do you want to filter on?", _
' "Enter the filter item.")
