Hi,

I am looking for some help in automating a copy on paste of a list of values, Repeating a specific line a number of times before moving to the next line.

An example of the input data would be

ABCDEFGHIJ
MaterialPlantSlocDeliv.QtyUnPicked QtyUn2Gross WeightDescriptionLabels Required
Material 1
6200​
620​
2​
PC
2​
KG
18​
Description 1

Material 2
6200​

KG
14.4​
Description 2
8​
Material 3
6200​
620​
8​
PC
8​
KG
1.84​
Description 3
4​

From this data, I would like to copy this data to a new sheet, I would like the lines repeating in the new sheet based on the value in "Labels Required" without the output looking like the below.

I would assume the VBA would be best suited to handle this, but I have no grasp of it to be able to come close to what I want it to accomplish.

Column references would never change with the data, though it could be created as a table if that's easier.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,
 
You are welcome.
Glad I was able to help!
