[RESOLVED] Excel - Copy value of cell paste into another cell

[crampz]

Hi All,

Does anyone know if it possible to copy a cell value from the same row the link is on a paste it in another cell on another sheet.

I.e Values are in Column A and the link would be in Column B and copy to sheet 2 cell A1

Sheet 1

Col A ----- Col B
1212 ----- Click Here < would copy 1212 to sheet 2 cell A1
7474 ----- Click Here < would copy 7474 to sheet 2 cell A1
2939 ----- Click Here < would copy 2939 to sheet 2 cell A1

The cell "a1" on sheet 2 must remain formula free

I have got about 40 of these rows that need this type of link and the data in Col A changes everyday.

I hope this makes sense

Thanks in advance

Paste this in the worksheet code area

Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
    If Range(Target.Range.Address).Column = 2 Then
        Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1").Value = Target.Range.Offset(, -1).Value
    End If
End Sub

I was hoping to be a text link saying "Click Here" which when clicked would copy what is in the cell on the same row in Col A to the sheet 2.

See the snapshot.

Once you have pasted the code, simply click on any link in Column 2.

whenever u change any row value in sheet1 Col A, u need that changed row value to be pasted in sheet2 A1, am i right? if yes then why dont u use Worksheet_Change event?
