Compare data from 2 workbook sheets and inserting new/missing data












0














I am very green to code so apologies if this has already been answered but I am struggling to find a code that covers what i would like to do.



So i have to two workbooks, one has a list of my projects the other also lists these projects but is used for a different purpose, currently defined as "January_2019". Currently i manually enter new rows in the second workbook containing January_2019 and physically copy and paste the new projects names and numbers over from Projects workbook. Simple enough but wondered if this could be automated with VBA.



I need to bring in the project number I allocate (column A in WB1) and paste it in column B in WB2. As well as and the Name (column F in WB1) and paste into column C in WB2.



Can the data set be compared and rows inserted to suit the new data?



I have had a go at the code based on what i have found but all help would be appreciated as i am getting an runtime error 9 for the "else" part.



Sub InsertJobs()

Dim wbkA As Variant
Dim varSheetA As Variant
Dim varSheetB As Variant
Dim strRangeToCheck As String
Dim iRow As Long
Dim iCol As Long

Set wbkA = Workbooks.Open(Filename:="P:Projects.xls")
Set varSheetA = wbkA.Worksheets("Job_List")

strRangeToCheck = "A1:G500"
Debug.Print Now
varSheetA = Worksheets("Job_List").Range(strRangeToCheck)
varSheetB = Worksheets("January_2019").Range(strRangeToCheck)
Debug.Print Now

For iRow = LBound(varSheetA, 1) To UBound(varSheetA, 1)
For iCol = LBound(varSheetA, 2) To UBound(varSheetA, 2)
If varSheetA(iRow, iCol) = varSheetB(iRow, iCol) Then
' Cells are identical.
' Do nothing.
Else
' Cells are different.
Sheets(varSheetA).Range("A" & "F").Copy
Destination:=Sheets("January_2019").Range("B" & "C")

Dim i As Long, r1 As Range, r2 As Range
For i = 4 To 500
Set r1 = Range("A" & i)
Set r2 = Range("B" & i & ":C" & i)
Next i
End If
Next iCol
Next iRow

End Sub
