I wish to run a macro that will find a specified value in a range, say C1:C9, when that value is found I want the macro to ?Cut? this value as well as the value in the cell to the right, lets assume that the specified value is 17 in cell C4, then highlight this and cell D4, Cut and paste to C10, I?m using the following example to do this.. Dim myCellPtr Dim myNew Set myNew = Range("C4:C9") For myCellPtr = 1 To myNew.Count If myNew(myCellPtr) = "17" Then myNew(myCellPtr).Cut Range("C10").Select ActiveSheet.Paste End If Next myCellPtr Set myNew = Range("C4:C9") For myCellPtr = 1 To myNew.Count If myNew(myCellPtr) = "18" Then myNew(myCellPtr).Cut Range("C11").Select ActiveSheet.Paste End If??. How do I get the macro to select both cells i.e. C4 and D4? |

Hello gregmalbaust-ga, and thanks for your Question! For your specific example, what you will want to do in order to select both the cell where the value is found, and the cell to the right of it, is to replace the current line: myNew(myCellPtr).Cut with the line: Range(myNew(myCellPtr), myNew(myCellPtr).Offset(0, 1)).Cut The difference is to define a Range, following the pattern: Range(Cell1, Cell2) where Cell1 and Cell2 are, respectively, the upper-left and lower-right corners of the rectangular range (ex. A1 to C5) and the Offset method of referencing a cell; in this case, offsetting from myNew(myCellPtr) by zero rows down, one column right. By extension, if you wanted to use this method to find an index value in the first column of a table, then copy the value and the next six cells to the right of the index value, you would use 'Offset(0,6)'. If you want to select two rows' worth of the next six cells to the right, you would use 'Offset(1,6)'. Just remember that, for the Offset method, zero references the row and column of the referenced cell. I hope this helps!
