Hello

I’m looking for a macro to copy records and phone number. The row without phone numbers (referring to COLUMN J) have lots more columns and lot more data I need a macro to transfer or copy the phone number from rows below into to the row above (master record) in case there are multiple child records, and only 1 master record, the macro should insert a row and copy the master row into it.

I suppose the macro should check the numeric and just first alphabetic portion of the address to find the match (e.g. 11213 FOSTER ) since some address have apts and that would throw the macro off.

Then the macro would count how many times the record appeared below and then create the master record and then copy the child records phone number into them.

This is a real challenging one, any help would be greatly appreciated.

If all else failed and it can’t be done then the macro should just copy the very first child record phone number into the master record.

COLUMN F= ADDRESS
G=CITY
H=STATE
I=ZIP
J=PHONE NUMBERS

Below is the DUMMY DATA.

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
The data is merged from two different files and then sorted on the Address, one file has the number and other doesn't, the file that does have number, has other information missing, so I need to transfer the number in to master record that has lot more information.
Hope that help.!
