Script/Formula to move data to another cell

Hi Experts,

See attached.

How do I

1) Move all numeric values in cell 'H' to the adjecent cell 'I' (same row)
2) Clear the cell 'H' after step 1 is completed
3) Move text with 'Answer' to the cell J (same row)
4) Clear the cell after the move

is this possible? new to intense VBA !!

Kind Regards

Mike

I wear a lot of hats...

"The solutions and answers provided on Experts Exchange have been extremely helpful to me over the last few years. I wear a lot of hats - Developer, Database Administrator, Help Desk, etc., so I know a lot of things but not a lot about one thing. Experts Exchange gives me answers from people who do know a lot about one thing, in a easy to use platform." -Todd S.

There's no attachment I'm afraid.

For the first part you could try this.
Dim Ar As Range

    For Each ar In Range("H:H").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants, 1)
        ar.Offset(,1).Value = ar.Value
        ar.ClearContents
    Next ar

Open in new window

I didn't post anything for the 2nd part as, to me anyway, it isn't clear what you want to do - kind of hoped the attachent would have helped.:)

Anyway, is it that you want to find 'Answer' in column H and if found move it to column J?

Actually move to J if the word contains 'Answer'

We can use similar code for that but we since we are looking for a specific value, ie 'Answer', we need another loop.
Dim ar As Range
Dim cl As Range

    For Each ar In Range("H:H").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants, 2)
        For Each cl In ar.Cells
            If ar.Value = "Answer" Then
                ar.Offset(, 2).Value = ar.Value
                ar.ClearContents
            End If
        Next cl
    Next ar
