Paste Values in linked Cells Only
Goodmorning Everyone!
I have a worksheet within a workbook that contains 1500 rows of data over 14 columns (the 12 months, plus to summary columns) - called the "Year to Date" sheet. The YTD sheet has links to other worksheets within the same workbook. This workbook is used as a roll forward workbook. The YTD sheet does not change, but all other worksheets in the workbook get updated with the current months data. In preparing for a new month, I have written a macro that cleans up a lot of the data from the last month. The problem is that I want the YTD worksheet formulas to remain as constant as possible. One thought that comes to mind is to copy/paste special values only in the cells that link to other worksheets - not all of the formulas - only those linked to other worksheets. The only issue is that it would be too time consuming to do this on a cell by cell basis. Another problem is that I would want to only update the column for the current month with the values only, and leave the formulas in the other months columns... SOOO, a macro is definitely needed... how would I write a macro that does the following.. If cell B4(the current month ending date) = (a value in row 6 - the one that corresponds to the current month end date), then select the whole column that the value appears in. Search each cell and find all linked formulas. Paste special, values only in those cells. -- Thanks for all of the help. It is much appreciated!!!! |
