VB Macro Help Requested

Sir/Madam,
I am requesting assistance with the coding of a VB macro. Please see attached spreadsheet. In the attached, a macro was created to copy data from the 'CSV' tab into the 'Template' tab (upon running, the final result would appear in the 'Results' tab). The current macro is written for Part I - Fleet (the first table in the 'template' tab, rows 14-49).

Our customers now require additional information for each airline customer. They want to see the employee count. In the 'template' tab I created another table, Part II - Fleet and Personnel (rows 53-63). Unfortunately, my programmer cannot provide the data set needed for Parts I & II in one Excel spreadsheet, thus, tab 'CSV2' has data for Part II.

Can the current macro be updated so that when it runs, it continues to place the data for Part I into the first table, and then places the data for Part II into the second table?

I have attempted to update the program, and had no luck at all (it would embarassing to place it online that is how bad it was!). The "Current Results" is what the code is currently doing. The "Desired Results" is what I am trying to accomplish. When it is completed, each airline should only have 1 page. Though in there are only two airlines of data in the attached, this spreadsheet will be used for 100+ airlines.

Please advise with any questions. Thank you as always for your help!

Attached: My Excel spreadsheet and a Word file with the current macro code.

Kris, this is great, thank you. Is there a way we can make one page per airline? Right now the output for one airline is spread among, it looks like in the Print Preview, 6 pages. Other than that, it looks fantastic! Great job! Thanks!

I have attached the file again that ran with your code. Also attached is the updated macro code (this was one very tiny mistake in your macro code that I fixed, you had called the second tab CSV5 instead of CSV2, no worries, I fixed and it ran).

add these lines at the end of the code(before application.scr...)

ActiveWindow.View = xlPageBreakPreview
    wksResult.VPageBreaks(1).DragOff Direction:=xlToRight, RegionIndex:=1

Kris, very good, thank you. At first I was little confused by what you were trying to accomplish but then I realized where I was.

My last request is that the Airline Name is not actually "AIRLINE1", "AIRLINE2", etc. but instead actually United States airline carriers such as "Delta Airlines", "American Airlines", etc. When using Experts-Exchange, I cannot provide the actual name of the airline carriers so I just use dummy airline names. Next time I will use different 'fake' airline names for the Experts to understand.

Other than that, everything works! Great job. Thank you.
