asked on 

find specific text in row one then copy from that cell down

I have searched EE but cannot find the specific code I need. Would appreciate the help of an expert.

My specific need is to find the word 'book' in column 'B' then move 6 to the right then copy all cells from that cell down to the last cell that contains data.

Many thanks

Does it have to be "book", or also when it's part of that cell like "abcbookdef" ?
Does "down to the last cell that contains data" mean that if "book" is found in B3, and column B runs through B100, that H3 should be filled through H100 (copied from B3:B100)?
Or did you mean Only fill H4 when the next "book" is encountered in column B?

Hi kimputer,

in this instance it will be Book, so, if 'Book' is found in B3 I need to move 6 to the right and then copy from H3 to H100

If column B runs through B100, then I need to copy H3 through to H100 I will then Paste this data in column A in Sheet2 cell A2
