Transfer cell values to another cell by selecting button.

G

I would like to be able to select a 'Button' within a cell or beside a cell
to send the contents of that cell to another cell. The Control Toolbox has a
Command Button but I do not know how to set it up. *The Cell in question has
a formula to retrieved info from another sheet.* I have tried to set up a
Macro for a small triangle put into the cell but I am new to Macros and can't
seem to get it to work properly.

Cell contains: =Players!C2

Macro I used was:

Sub MoveData()
Range("E6").Copy Range("F6")
End Sub

(E6 has formula: =Players!C2 )

I want to be able to click on that cell or a button or object in or beside
the cell that will then transfer that cell value to another cell on same
sheet.

Try using something like:
Sub MoveData()
If Range("G6").value <>"" then Range("A1").value = Range("G6").value
' Modify the A1 to the required cell.
End Sub


I prefer a Forms Button from the Forms Toolbar.

1). Copy the code between the Sub and End Sub
2). Ad the Forms Button to the sheet where you want it
3). You will be prompted to attach a macro
4). Select New
5). Paste the copied code to the New macro
ALT+Q to exit VBA.

hi
open the control toolbox and drop a command button on the sheet. place it
where you wish. while in design mode, right cllick the command button and
from the popup, select view code.
if the button is already there then open the toolbox and click on the design
mode icon. looks like a protractor with pencil and ruler.
the click event is the default command button event so the
commandbutton1_click should default when you selec view code. paste this code
in...
'Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() ' this like should default
Dim r As Range
Dim ro As Range
Set r = Range("E6")
Set ro = Range("F6")
ro.Value = r.Value

'End Sub ' this like should default

so that each time you click the button, the value of E6 will transfer to F6.
is that what you wanted?
