Hi all

I've been using the following code that repeats its self continuously until stopped. I was hoping that I would be able to stop the by pressing the escape key. Alas this doesn't work but pressing ctrl + pause/break does stop the code. However this then creates an error.

This is a link to the sheet with the data removed from the sheet leaving the vba code only.


The code is as follows;

VBA Code:
Sub logBalance()
   
Dim source As Worksheet
Dim destination As Worksheet
Dim emptyColumn As Long

Set source = Sheets("Sheet8")
Set destination = Sheets("Sheet1")


source.Range("D556:D567").Copy
destination.Range("O5:O16").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False

source.Range("D543:D554").Copy
destination.Range("Y5:Y16").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
        
              

source.Range("D540:D567").Copy

emptyColumn = destination.Cells(2, destination.Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column

If IsEmpty(destination.Range("Z2")) Then
    destination.Cells(1, 1).PasteSpecial Transpose:=True
       
Else
    emptyColumn = emptyColumn + 1
    destination.Cells(2, emptyColumn).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
        
      
End If

destination.Range("X4:X44").Copy

emptyColumn = destination.Cells(31, destination.Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column

If IsEmpty(destination.Range("Z31")) Then
    destination.Cells(1, 1).PasteSpecial Transpose:=True
       
Else
    emptyColumn = emptyColumn + 1
    destination.Cells(31, emptyColumn).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
        
    
    
    source.Range("D540:D567").Copy

emptyColumn = source.Cells(28, source.Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column

If IsEmpty(source.Range("A28")) Then
    source.Cells(1, 1).PasteSpecial Transpose:=True
       
Else
    emptyColumn = emptyColumn + 1
    source.Cells(28, emptyColumn).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
        
        
  source.Cells(28, emptyColumn).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
    
    End If
    
        
     source.Range("D540:D567").Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
     
    Call Repeat
     
 End If
End Sub

Sub Repeat()

RunTimer = Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")

Application.OnTime RunTimer, "logBalance"
Call logBalance
End Sub

Hopefully some kind soul can point me in the right direction on this :)

Many thanks

RBW

Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().

Ok sorry.

Code was in sheet 1. Moved to a module and it works fine.

Beyond my knowledge why that is guess I need to read-up.
