Hello there,

In workbook1, I have data in column A for 'Name1'.

2019-04-18
2019-04-19 (cell filled in with blue)
2019-04-20 (cell filled in with red)
2019-04-21

In workbook2, I have columns in row 1:

Name1 ...... Name2 ...... Name3

I'm wondering if there's a code that will search for 'Name1' in workbook2 and then copy the data I have in workbook1 underneath 'Name1' in workbook2. In addition, if there is already data underneath 'Name1' to simply override what's there with the new data.

Thank you in advance!
 

Excel Facts

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().
The parameters are not clear. Why search for Name1 in workbook2, we know it is the first column? Do you mean search for Name1 in workbook 1 then copy data beneath Name1 from workbook 1 to the Name1 column in workbook 2? If the latter is what you really mean, then can you give a better example of what column A in workbook 1 looks like? Would column A of workbook 1 also have Name2 and Name3 listed with data beneath?
