I have the following code that copies & pastes data...so far it is only written for one IF case. Eventually it will have many different cases and will be pages upon pages of code. Just wondering if there is any way of condensing the code so that it isn't as long? Sorry for the long post! :eek:

Code:
Sub CREATEESTIMATE()

Dim wsEst As Worksheet
Dim wsList As Worksheet
Dim wsData As Worksheet
Dim smallrng As Range
Dim destrng As Range


Set wsEst = Worksheets("Estimate")
Set wsData = Worksheets("Brk-oil-44kv-data")
Set wsList = Worksheets("Estimate List")
lngMax = wsList.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row

For Each Cell In wsList.Range("F2:F" & lngMax)

  
    If Cell.Value = "BR-O-44-RR" Then
    Sheets("Estimate").Activate
    ActiveSheet.unprotect
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    myrow = Cells.Find("Total Station Electrical / Cable / Mechanical / Civil Maintenance Estimate").Row - 6
    mycell = Cells(myrow, 2)
    mynum = Right(mycell, Len(mycell) - InStr(mycell, "#")) + 1
    
        With Range(Cells(myrow, 2), Cells(myrow + 5, 2))
            .EntireRow.Copy
            .EntireRow.Insert Shift:=lxDown
            newrow = Cells.Find("Total Station Electrical / Cable / Mechanical / Civil Maintenance Estimate").Row - 6
            Range(Cells(newrow, 3), Cells(newrow + 5, 5)).Value = wsData.Range("B2:E7").Value
            Range(Cells(newrow, 12), Cells(newrow + 5, 12)).Value = wsData.Range("F2:F7").Value
        End With
            Application.CutCopyMode = False
            Cells(myrow + 6, 2) = "Task#" & mynum
            Application.DisplayAlerts = True

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
What is the code actually meant to do?

And why do you keep on repeating this section of code?
Code:
  Sheets("Estimate").Activate 
    ActiveSheet.unprotect 
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False 
    myrow = Cells.Find("Total Station Electrical / Cable / Mechanical / Civil Maintenance Estimate").Row - 6

The code copies raw data from one sheet and enters it into an Estimate Sheet that creates costs of particular jobs. The users have a series of generic estimates that they work from, and they wanted me to create something where they only have to input some information and based upon that the estimate gets generated for them.

I kept repeating that part because I thought I had to. I'm relatively new to writing VBA and I just kept copying and pasting the section of code.

Thanks,
Tnemom
