Copy/paste cells based on match criteria to different rows on multiple sheets
hoping to get extra eyes on this - I've only dabbled with VBA on personal projects before, but have been successful in the past! This one is a doozy though, never done anything so complex. I'm working with a spreadsheet - first tab is the master list, with multiple questions on it - the following tabs are different questionnaires that use the questions in different sequences.
I'm trying to make a macro that will search through the other tabs and compare the "Q" column, which holds the question #. If a tab has a Q cell that matches to the master list, I'd like to copy A#:Q# from the master list row and paste it on that sheet.
With a lot of searching on this site, here's how far I got:
Sub Refresh()
Refresh Macro
Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+r
Dim wM As Worksheet, wR As Worksheet
Dim r1 As Range, R2 As Range
Dim cel1 As Range, cel2 As Range
Dim LastRow As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set wR = ActiveSheet
Set wM = ActiveSheet.Next
With wR
Set R2 = .Range("Q1", .Cells(.Rows.Count, .Columns("Q:Q").Column).End(xlUp))
End With
With wM
Set r1 = .Range("Q1", .Cells(.Rows.Count, .Columns("Q:Q").Column).End(xlUp))
End With
LastRow = 1
On Error Resume Next
For Each cel1 In r1
With Application
Set cel2 = .Index(R2, .Match(cel1.Value, R2, 0)) 'find match in active page
If Err = 0 Then
copyResult cel2, LastRow 'copy result to next page
End If
Err.Clear
LastRow = LastRow + 1
End With
Next cel1
End Sub
Sub copyResult(cel As Range, row As Long)
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = ActiveSheet.Next
cel.EntireRow.Copy ws.Cells(row, 1)
End Sub
I'm stuck in two places:
1. trying to find a way to trigger the next sheet for "wM" to get updated
2. getting the copyResult section to copy just part of the row - there's a note section on each tab that shouldn't get overwritten. I tried doing cel.Range("A" & cel.row:"Q" & cel.row).Copy, but it didn't work.
Open to all and any thoughts - thanks in advance!

@Brotato - thanks. I tried this: cel.Range("A" & cel.row & ":Q" & cel.row).Copy ws.Cells(row, 1), and added text to row 6 on ACtiveSheet. But instead of copying from the beginning of the row and adding it to the correct row on the next tab, it copied from Q5 and pasted in A5.

@StoneGiant, it is similar, but I don't know if I can use the match logic since theirs is numeric? I also have multiple sheets to compare to the first one, I'm not sure how to loop through correctly.
