Insert copy row excel - Word и Excel - помощь в работе с программами

When you move or copy rows and columns, by default Excel moves or copies all data that they contain, including formulas and their resulting values, comments, cell formats, and hidden cells.

When you copy cells that contain a formula, the relative cell references are not adjusted. Therefore, the contents of cells and of any cells that point to them might display the #REF! error value. If that happens, you can adjust the references manually. For more information, see Detect errors in formulas.

You can use the Cut command or Copy command to move or copy selected cells, rows, and columns, but you can also move or copy them by using the mouse.

By default, Excel displays the Paste Options button. If you need to redisplay it, go to Advanced in Excel Options. For more information, see Advanced options.

Select the cell, row, or column that you want to move or copy.
Do one of the following:
- To move rows or columns, on the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click Cut or press CTRL+X.
- To copy rows or columns, on the Home tab, in the Clipboard group, click Copy or press CTRL+C.
Right-click a row or column below or to the right of where you want to move or copy your selection, and then do one of the following:
- When you are moving rows or columns, click Insert Cut Cells.
- When you are copying rows or columns, click Insert Copied Cells.
Tip: To move or copy a selection to a different worksheet or workbook, click another worksheet tab or switch to another workbook, and then select the upper-left cell of the paste area.

Note: Excel displays an animated moving border around cells that were cut or copied. To cancel a moving border, press Esc.

By default, drag-and-drop editing is turned on so that you can use the mouse to move and copy cells.

Select the row or column that you want to move or copy.
Do one of the following:

VBA Copy / Paste Rows & Columns

In this Article

This tutorial will teach you how to copy (or cut) entire Rows or Columns using VBA. We cover copying and pasting ranges of cells in another article.

First we will show you how to paste or insert copied rows/columns and discuss the differences. Then we will show you all of the different ways to references rows and columns when copying or cutting.

Rows & Columns – Paste vs. Insert

When pasting rows and columns you have two options: You can paste over the existing row (or column) or you can insert a new row (or column).

Let’s look at the difference…

Copy & Paste Over Existing Row / Column

This will copy row 1 and paste it into the existing row 5:

This will copy column C and paste it into column E:

Copy & Insert Row / Column

Instead you can insert the copied row or column and shift the existing rows or columns to make room.

This will copy row 1 and insert it into row 5, shifting the existing rows down:

This will copy column C and insert it into column E, shifting the existing columns to the right:

Copy Entire Row

Below we will show you several ways to copy row 1 and paste into row 5.

Cut and Paste Rows

Simply use Cut instead of Copy to cut and paste rows:

Странно, что не рассмотрено копирование ячеек, которые Cells.
Например, следующая строка копирует ячейку A1 в B2

а эта делает тоже самое, но демонстрирует,
как можно добавить размер и смещение:

Здравствуйте!
Скажите, как можно копировать на Лист 1, а вставить на Лист 2 диапазон ячеек целиком, либо отсортированный по 1 признаку диапазон(например по какому-то определенному значению, скажем, числу «500» в одном столбце Листа 1)?

Привет, Максим!
Вот пример сортировки таблицы по значению 500 в первом столбце на «Лист6» и копирования диапазона с «Лист6» на «Лист4» :

Спасибо большое, только я, наверно, неправильно описал ситуацию.
Сперва из эталонной таблицы Лист 1 копируем весь список на существующий Лист4.
Затем, пропускаем шапку, и, начиная со строки7, уже на Лист4 ищем строку, у которой в столбце 5 стоит число 500.
Вырезаем эту строку и вставляем на позицию строки 7. т.е первая после шапки.
Ищем следующую строку — вырезаем, потом вставляем на позицию строки 7+1=8 и т.д.
В итоге оставим только те строки, у которых в столбце 5 стоит число «500», остальные удаляются строки.

(пробовал менять местами строки в предыдущем коде, ошибок нет, копирует, переходит на лист 4, но строки на нем не удаляет, циклы пошагово проходят, но ничего не изменяется.)

This should do it:

Private Sub newRow(Optional line As Integer = -1)
Dim target As Range
Dim cell As Range
Dim rowNr As Integer

    Set target = Range("A2:D3")

    If line <> -1 Then
        rowNr = line
    Else
        rowNr = target.Rows.Count
    End If

    target.Rows(rowNr + 1).Insert
    target.Rows(rowNr).Copy target.Rows(rowNr + 1)
    For Each cell In target.Rows(rowNr + 1).Cells
        If Left(cell.Formula, 1) <> "=" Then cell.Clear
    Next cell
End Sub

If you start recording a macro and actually do the task in hand, it will generate the code for you. Once finished, stop recording the macro and you’ll have the code needed which you can then amend.

I needed to roll a solution that worked like the way a data connection query expands a result-range with optionally autofilling formulas off to the right. Perhaps two years late for the bounty, but I’m happy to share anyway!

Public Sub RangeExpand(rangeToExpand As Range, expandAfterLine As Integer, Optional linesToInsert As Integer = 1, Optional stuffOnTheRight As Boolean = False)
    Debug.Assert rangeToExpand.Rows.Count > 1
    Debug.Assert expandAfterLine < rangeToExpand.Rows.Count
    Debug.Assert expandAfterLine > 0

    If linesToInsert = 0 Then Exit Sub
    Debug.Assert linesToInsert > 0

    Do
        rangeToExpand.EntireRow(expandAfterLine + 1).Insert
        linesToInsert = linesToInsert - 1
    Loop Until linesToInsert <= 0

    If stuffOnTheRight Then
        rangeToExpand.Item(expandAfterLine, rangeToExpand.Columns.Count + 1).Select
        Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
        Range(rangeToExpand.Item(expandAfterLine, 1), Selection).Select
    Else
        Range(rangeToExpand.Item(expandAfterLine, 1), rangeToExpand.Item(expandAfterLine, rangeToExpand.Columns.Count)).Select
    End If
    Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range(rangeToExpand.Item(expandAfterLine, 1), rangeToExpand.Item(rangeToExpand.Rows.Count, Selection.Columns.Count))

This Answer addresses the following 3 issues with the currently Accepted Answer from @marg originally posted Apr 13 ’10 at 9:43.

target.Rows(rowNr + 1).Insert: 1.1. does not extend the Named Range by one Row (AFAIK the only way to do so implicitly via Insert Row (vs. explicitly modifying Range definition) and to do so after specified Row # is via Row #’s 1 to Count — 1) and 1.2) only shifts Columns in the target Range down by one Row. In many (and probably most) cases, Columns to the right and/or left of the target Range need to be shifted down as well.
target.Rows(rowNr).Copy target.Rows(rowNr + 1) does not copy
the Formats which are often if not usually desired also.

Private Sub InsertNewRowInRange( _
TargetRange As Range, _
Optional InsertAfterRowNumber As Integer = -1, _
Optional InsertEntireSheetRow As Boolean = True)

' -- InsertAfterRowNumber must be 1 to TargetRange.Rows.Count - 1 for TargetRange to be extended by one Row and for there to be
' --    Formats and Formulas to copy from (e.g. can't be 0).  Default: If -1, defaults to TargetRange.Rows.Count.
' --    Recommend dummy spacer Row at the bottom of TargetRange which, btw, would also be necessary to manually extend a Range
' --    by one Row implicitly via Insert Row (vs. explicilty via changing Range definition).

        If InsertAfterRowNumber = -1 Then
            InsertAfterRowNumber = TargetRange.Rows.Count
        End If

        If InsertEntireSheetRow Then
            TargetRange.Cells(InsertAfterRowNumber + 1, 1).Select
            Selection.EntireRow.Insert
        Else
            TargetRange.Rows(InsertAfterRowNumber + 1).Insert
        End If

        TargetRange.Rows(InsertAfterRowNumber).Select
        Selection.Copy

        TargetRange.Rows(InsertAfterRowNumber + 1).Select
        Selection.PasteSpecial _
            Paste:=xlPasteFormats, _
            Operation:=xlNone, _

Here’s another solution building on answer from @Tom. It does not use «Selection», and it’s possible to insert multiple rows.

' Appends one or more rows to a range.
' You can choose if you want to keep formulas and if you want to insert entire sheet rows.

Insert Rows in Excel

When working manually with Excel, you can insert rows in the following 2 steps:

Select the row or rows above which to insert the row or rows.
Do one of the following:
1. Right-click and select Insert.
2. Go to Home > Insert > Insert Sheet Rows.
3. Use the “Ctrl + Shift + +” keyboard shortcut.

You can use the VBA constructs and structures I describe below to automate this process to achieve a variety of results.

Excel VBA Constructs to Insert Rows

Insert Rows with the Range.Insert Method

Purpose of Range.Insert

Use the Range.Insert method to insert a cell range into a worksheet. The 2 main characteristics of the Range.Insert method are the following:

Range.Insert can insert a single cell or a cell range. For purposes of this VBA Tutorial, you’re interested in inserting entire rows.
To make space for the newly-inserted cells, Range.Insert shifts other cells away.

Syntax of Range.Insert

expression.Insert(Shift, CopyOrigin)

“expression” is a Range object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Range.Insert(Shift, CopyOrigin)

Parameters of Range.Insert

Parameter: Shift.
- Description: Specifies the direction in which cells are shifted away to make space for the newly-inserted row.
- Optional/Required: Optional.
- Data type: Variant.
- Values: Use a constant from the xlInsertShiftDirection Enumeration:
  - xlShiftDown or -4121: Shifts cells down.
  - xlShiftToRight or -4161: Shifts cells to the right.
- Default: Excel decides based on the range’s shape.
- Usage notes: When you insert a row: (i) use xlShiftDown or -4121, or (ii) omit parameter and rely on the default behavior.
Parameter: CopyOrigin.
- Description: Specifies from where (the origin) is the format for the cells in the newly inserted row copied.
- Optional/Required: Optional.
- Data type: Variant.
- Values: A constant from the xlInsertFormatOrigin Enumeration:
  - xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove or 0: Newly-inserted cells take formatting from cells above or to the left.
  - xlFormatFromRightOrBelow or 1: Newly-inserted cells take formatting from cells below or to the right.
- Default: xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove or 0. Newly-inserted cells take the formatting from cells above or to the left.

How to Use Range.Insert to Insert Rows

Use the Range.Insert method to insert a row into a worksheet. Use a statement with the following structure:

Range.Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown CopyOrigin:=xlInsertFormatOriginConstant

For these purposes:

Range: Range object representing an entire row. Use the Worksheet.Rows or Range.EntireRow properties to return a Range object that represents the entire row. Please refer to the sections about the Rows and EntireRow properties below.
xlInsertFormatOriginConstant: xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove or xlFormatFromRightOrBelow. xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove is the default value. Therefore, when inserting rows with formatting from row above, you can usually omit the CopyOrigin parameter.

You can usually omit the Shift parameter. By default, VBA decides how to shift the cells based on the range’s shape. When inserting a row, this usually results in Excel shifting the cells down.

Specify Rows with the Worksheet.Rows Property

Purpose of Worksheet.Rows

Use the Worksheet.Rows property to return a Range object representing all the rows within the worksheet the property works with.

Worksheet.Rows is read-only.

Syntax of Worksheet.Rows

expression.Rows

“expression” is a Worksheet object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Worksheet.Rows

How to Use Worksheet.Rows to Insert Rows

Use the Worksheet.Rows property to specify the row or rows above which new rows are inserted.

To insert a row, use a statement with the following structure:

Worksheets.Rows(row#).Insert

“row#” is the number of the row above which the row is inserted.

To insert multiple rows, use a statement with the following structure:

Worksheet.Rows("firstRow#:lastRow#").Insert

“firstRow#” is the row above which the rows are inserted. The number of rows VBA inserts is calculated as follows:

lastRow# - firstRow# + 1

Specify the Active Cell with the Application.ActiveCell Property

Purpose of Application.ActiveCell

Use the Application.ActiveCell property to return a Range object representing the active cell.

Application.ActiveCell is read-only.

Syntax of Application.ActiveCell

expression.ActiveCell

“expression” is the Application object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Application.ActiveCell

How to Use Application.ActiveCell To Insert Rows

When you insert a row, use the Application.ActiveCell property to return the active cell. This allows you to use the active cell as reference for the row insertion operation.

Use the Range.Offset property to return a Range object a specific number of rows above or below the active cell. Use the Range.EntireRow property to return a Range object representing the entire row or rows above which to insert the new row. Please refer to the sections about the Offset and EntireRow properties below.

To insert a row above the active cell, use the following statement:

ActiveCell.EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown

To insert a row a specific number of rows above or below the active cell, use a statement with the following structure:

ActiveCell.Offset(RowOffset).EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown

Specify a Cell Range with the Worksheet.Range Property

Purpose of Worksheet.Range

Use the Worksheet.Range property to return a Range object representing a single cell or a cell range.

Syntax of Worksheet.Range

expression.Range(Cell1, Cell2)

“expression” is a Worksheet object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Worksheet.Range(Cell1, Cell2)

Parameters of Worksheet.Range

Parameter: Cell1.
- Description:
  - If you use Cell1 alone (omit Cell2), Cell1 specifies the cell range.
  - If you use Cell1 and Cell2, Cell1 specifies the cell in the upper-left corner of the cell range.
- Required/Optional: Required.
- Data type: Variant.
- Values:
  - If you use Cell1 alone (omit Cell2): (i) range address as an A1-style reference in language of macro, or (ii) range name.
  - If you use Cell1 and Cell2: (i) Range object, (ii) range address, or (iii) range name.
Parameter: Cell2.
- Description: Cell in the lower-right corner of the cell range.
- Required/Optional: Optional.
- Data type: Variant.
- Values: (i) Range object, (ii) range address, or (iii) range name.

How to Use Worksheet.Range to Insert Rows

When you insert a row, use the Worksheet.Range property to return a cell or cell range. This allows you to use a specific cell or cell range as reference for the row insertion operation.

Use the Range.Offset property to return a Range object a specific number of rows above or below the cell or cell range. Use the Range.EntireRow property to return a Range object representing the entire row or rows above which to insert the new row or rows. Please refer to the sections about the Offset and EntireRow properties below.

To insert rows above the cell range specified by Worksheet.Range, use a statement with the following structure:

Worksheet.Range(Cell1, Cell2).EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown

To insert rows a specific number of rows above or below the cell range specified by Worksheet.Range use a statement with the following structure:

Worksheet.Range(Cell1, Cell2).Offset(RowOffset).EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown

If the cell range represented by the Worksheet.Range property spans more than 1 row, the Insert method inserts several rows. The number of rows inserted is calculated as follows:

lastRow# - firstRow# + 1

Please refer to the section about the Worksheet.Rows property above for further information about this calculation.

Specify a Cell with the Worksheet.Cells and Range.Item Properties

Purpose of Worksheet.Cells and Range.Item

Use the Worksheet.Cells property to return a Range object representing all the cells within a worksheet.

Once your macro has all the cells within the worksheet, use the Range.Item property to return a Range object representing one of those cells.

Syntax of Worksheet.Cells and Range.Item

Worksheet.Cells

expression.Cells

“expression” is a Worksheet object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Worksheet.Cells

Range.Item

expression.Item(RowIndex, ColumnIndex)

“expression” is a Range object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Range.Item(RowIndex, ColumnIndex)

Worksheet.Cells and Range.Item Together

Considering the above:

Worksheet.Cells.Item(RowIndex, ColumnIndex)

However, Item is the default property of the Range object. Therefore, you can generally omit the Item keyword before specifying the RowIndex and ColumnIndex arguments. I simplify as follows:

Worksheet.Cells(RowIndex, ColumnIndex)

Parameters of Worksheet.Cells and Range.Item

Parameter: RowIndex.
- Description:
  - If you use RowIndex alone (omit ColumnIndex), RowIndex specifies the index of the cell you work with. Cells are numbered from left-to-right and top-to-bottom.
  - If you use RowIndex and ColumnIndex, RowIndex specifies the row number of the cell you work with.
- Required/Optional: Required.
- Data type: Variant.
- Values: You usually specify RowIndex as a value.
Parameter: ColumnIndex.
- Description: Column number or letter of the cell you work with.
- Required/Optional: Optional.
- Data type: Variant.
- Values: You usually specify ColumnIndex as a value (column number) or letter within quotations (“”).

How to use Worksheet.Cells and Range.Item to Insert Rows

When you insert a row, use the Worksheet.Cells and Range.Item properties to return a cell. This allows you to use a specific cell as reference for the row insertion operation.

Use the Range.Offset property to return a Range object a specific number of rows above or below the cell. Use the Range.EntireRow property to return a Range object representing the entire row above which to insert the row. Please refer to the sections about the Offset and EntireRow properties below.

To insert a row above the cell specified by Worksheet.Cells, use a statement with the following structure:

Worksheet.Cells(RowIndex, ColumnIndex).EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown

To insert a row a specific number of rows above or below the cell specified by Worksheet.Cells, use a statement with the following structure:

Worksheet.Cells(RowIndex, ColumnIndex).Offset(RowOffset).EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown

Specify a Cell Range a Specific Number of Rows Below or Above a Cell or Cell Range with the Range.Offset Property

Purpose of Range.Offset

Use the Range.Offset property to return a Range object representing a cell range located a number of rows or columns away from the range the property works with.

Syntax of Range.Offset

expression.Offset(RowOffset, ColumnOffset)

“expression” is a Range object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Range.Offset(RowOffset, ColumnOffset)

Parameters of Range.Offset

Parameter: RowOffset.
- Description: Number of rows by which cell or cell range is offset.
- Required/Optional: Optional.
- Data type: Variant.
- Values:
  - Positive number: Moves down the worksheet.
  - Negative number: Moves up the worksheet.
  - 0: Stays on the same row.
- Default: 0. Stays on the same row.
Parameter: ColumnOffset.

- Usage notes: When you insert a row, you can usually omit the ColumnOffset parameter. You’re generally interested in moving a number of rows (not columns) above or below.

How to Use Range.Offset to Insert Rows

When you insert a row, use the Range.Offset property to specify a cell or cell range located a specific number of rows below above another cell or cell range. This allows you to use this new cell or cell range as reference for the row insertion operation.

Use properties such as Application.ActiveCell, Worksheet.Range and Worksheet.Cells to specify the base range the Offset property works with. Please refer to the sections about the ActiveCell, Range and Cells properties above.

Specify Entire Row with the Range.EntireRow Property

Purpose of Range.EntireRow

Use the Range.EntireRow property to return a Range object representing the entire row or rows containing the cell range the property works with.

Range.EntireRow is read-only.

Syntax of Range.EntireRow

expression.EntireRow

“expression” is a Range object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Range.EntireRow

How to Use Range.EntireRow to Insert Rows

Use properties such as Application.ActiveCell, Worksheet.Range and Worksheet.Cells to specify the range the EntireRow property works with. Please refer to the sections about the ActiveCell, Range and Cells properties above.

Clear Row Formatting with the Range.ClearFormats Method

Purpose of Range.ClearFormats

Use the Range.ClearFormats method to clear the formatting of a cell range.

Syntax of Range.ClearFormats

expression.ClearFormats

“expression” is a Range object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Range.ClearFormats

How to Use Range.ClearFormats to Insert Rows

The format of the newly-inserted row is specified by the CopyOrigin parameter of the Range.Insert method. Please refer to the description of Range.Insert and CopyOrigin above.

When you insert a row, use the Range.ClearFormats method to clear the formatting of the newly-inserted rows. Use a statement with the following structure after the statement that inserts the new row (whose formatting you want to clear):

Range.ClearFormats

“Range” is a Range object representing the newly-inserted row.

Use the Worksheet.Rows or Range.EntireRow properties to return a Range object that represents the newly-inserted row. Please refer to the sections about the Rows and EntireRow properties above.

Copy Rows with the Range.Copy Method

Purpose of Range.Copy

Use the Range.Copy method to copy a cell range to another cell range or the Clipboard.

Syntax of Range.Copy

expression.Copy(Destination)

“expression” is a Range object. Therefore, I simplify as follows:

Range.Copy(Destination)

- Description:
  - The Mod operator (Mod) (i) divides one number (iCounter – myFirstRow) by a second number (myNRows), and (ii) returns the remainder of the division.
  - The condition ((iCounter – myFirstRow) Mod myNRows = 0) is met (returns True) if the remainder returned by Mod is 0.
  - The condition is met (returns True) every time the macro loops through a row above which blank rows should be added.
    - iCounter represents the number of the row through which the macro is currently looping.
    - (iCounter – myFirstRow) is the number of rows (in the data range) above the row through which the macro is currently looping.
    - ((iCounter – myFirstRow) Mod myNRows) equals 0 when the number of rows returned by (iCounter – myFirstRow) is a multiple of myNRows. This ensures that the number of rows left above the row through which the macro is currently looping can be appropriately separated into blocks of myNRows. In this example, myNRows equals 3. Therefore, the condition is met every 3 rows.
Item: myWorksheet.Rows(iCounter & “:” & iCounter + myRowsToInsert – 1).
- VBA constructs:
  - Statements executed if the condition specified by item #2 above is met.
  - Worksheet.Rows property.

  - The number of rows Worksheet.Rows returns equals the number of rows to insert (myRowsToInsert).
    - iCounter represents the number of the row through which the macro is currently looping.
    - (iCounter + myRowsToInsert – 1) returns a row located a number of rows (myRowsToInsert – 1) below the row through which the macro is currently looping. In this example, myRowsToInsert equals 2. Therefore, (iCounter + myRowsToInsert – 1) returns a row located 1 (2 – 1) rows below the row through which the macro is currently looping.
Item: Insert.
- VBA construct: Range.Insert method.
- Description:
  - Inserts new rows above the rows returned by item #3 above.
  - The number of inserted rows is equal to the value of myRowsToInsert. This is calculated as follows:
```
lastRow# - firstRow# + 1
(iCounter + myRowsToInsert - 1) - iCounter + 1 = myRowsToInsert
```
    In this example, if the current value of iCounter is 8:
```
(8 + 2 - 1) - 8 + 1
9 - 8 + 1 = 2
```
Item: Shift:=xlShiftDown.
- VBA construct: Shift parameter of Range.Insert method.
- Description:
  - Shifts rows down (xlShiftDown) to make space for the rows inserted by item #4 above.
  - You can usually omit this parameter. By default, VBA decides how to shift the cells based on the range’s shape. When inserting a row, this usually results in Excel shifting the cells down.
