I have a monthly sheet (Aug. Profits) that has 2 columns of concern, F & G. How to copy the values in column G to another workbook (Actual) in the column of the current month?
Knowing that:
1- The order of names in the first sheet is different from month to another.
2- Sometimes there are no names available in column F, so the corresponding values are useless.
3- Some names and values maybe unwanted. In other words, I want to only copy the values in column G which have names in the second sheet.

A very helpful member of the forum had suggested this code:

Code:
Sub CopyValues()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim Rng As Range, RngList As Object, WS1 As Worksheet, WS2 As Worksheet, Val As String, arr1 As Variant, arr2 As Variant, i As Long, fnd As Range
    Set WS1 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
    Set WS2 = Workbooks("Actual.xlsx").Sheets("Sheet1")
    Set fnd = WS2.Rows(1).Find(Left(MonthName(Month(Date)), 3))
    If Not fnd Is Nothing Then
        arr2 = WS2.Range("A2", WS2.Range("A" & WS2.Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
        arr1 = WS1.Range("F2", WS1.Range("F" & WS1.Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Resize(, 2).Value
        Set RngList = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
        For i = LBound(arr1) To UBound(arr1)
            Val = arr1(i, 1)
            If Val <> "" Then
                RngList.Add Key:=Val, Item:=arr1(i, 2)
            End If
        Next i
        For i = LBound(arr2) To UBound(arr2)
            Val = arr2(i, 1)
            If RngList.exists(Val) Then
                WS2.Cells(i + 1, fnd.Column) = RngList(Val)
            End If
        Next i
    End If
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

The code is working properly with him and fulfilling my needs. When copying the same code to a new module on my setup, it didn't work at all !! N.B Both of us are using Windows 10 and Office 2010.

Any help ??
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
With the test sheets you should get

Ok, with that sheet as the active sheet, run this
VBA Code:
Sub Check()
MsgBox ActiveWorkbook.Name & vbLf & "|" & ActiveSheet.Name & "|"
End Sub
What does the message box say?

Ok, how about
VBA Code:
Sub CopyValues()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim Rng As Range, RngList As Object, WS1 As Worksheet, WS2 As Worksheet, Val As String, arr1 As Variant, arr2 As Variant, i As Long, fnd As Range
    Dim Mnth As String
    Set WS1 = Workbooks("Aug Profits.xlsx").Sheets("Sheet1")
    Set WS2 = Workbooks("Actual.xlsx").Sheets("Sheet1")
    Mnth = Choose(Month(Date), "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec")
    Set fnd = WS2.Rows(1).Find(Mnth, , xlValues, xlPart, , , False, , False)
    If Not fnd Is Nothing Then
        arr2 = WS2.Range("A2", WS2.Range("A" & WS2.Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
        arr1 = WS1.Range("F2", WS1.Range("F" & WS1.Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Resize(, 2).Value
        Set RngList = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
        RngList.comparemode = 1
        For i = LBound(arr1) To UBound(arr1)
            Val = arr1(i, 1)
            If Val <> "" Then
                RngList.Add Key:=Val, Item:=arr1(i, 2)
            End If
        Next i
        For i = LBound(arr2) To UBound(arr2)
            Val = arr2(i, 1)
            If RngList.exists(Val) Then
                WS2.Cells(i + 1, fnd.Column) = RngList(Val)
            End If
        Next i
    Else
      MsgBox "Month Not found"
    End If
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Ok, how about
VBA Code:
Sub CopyValues()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim Rng As Range, RngList As Object, WS1 As Worksheet, WS2 As Worksheet, Val As String, arr1 As Variant, arr2 As Variant, i As Long, fnd As Range
    Dim Mnth As String
    Set WS1 = Workbooks("Aug Profits.xlsx").Sheets("Sheet1")
    Set WS2 = Workbooks("Actual.xlsx").Sheets("Sheet1")
    Mnth = Choose(Month(Date), "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec")
    Set fnd = WS2.Rows(1).Find(Mnth, , xlValues, xlPart, , , False, , False)
    If Not fnd Is Nothing Then
        arr2 = WS2.Range("A2", WS2.Range("A" & WS2.Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
        arr1 = WS1.Range("F2", WS1.Range("F" & WS1.Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Resize(, 2).Value
        Set RngList = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
        RngList.comparemode = 1
        For i = LBound(arr1) To UBound(arr1)
            Val = arr1(i, 1)
            If Val <> "" Then
                RngList.Add Key:=Val, Item:=arr1(i, 2)
            End If
        Next i
        For i = LBound(arr2) To UBound(arr2)
            Val = arr2(i, 1)
            If RngList.exists(Val) Then
                WS2.Cells(i + 1, fnd.Column) = RngList(Val)
            End If
        Next i
    Else
      MsgBox "Month Not found"
    End If
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Finally, it worked !!!
Would you explain where the problem was please?

The way the code was written, it needed to be in the Aug Profit workbook, but as that's an xlsx file the code must be in a different file.
So this line
VBA Code:
    Set WS1 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
is looking at the workbook containing the code, not the Aug Profit.xlsx workbook.
