I tried to do search, copy and paste to sheet2 from sheet1. First I need to search a value of a column in sheet2 then match the value in sheet1, and copy then paste the entire row to sheet2. For example I have this data below
Sheet2
A   B    C         D    E   F
        1200-24                 
        1201-24                 
        120-24                  
        1218-24                 
Sheet1
A  B   C           D     E      F   
2 345  1200-24     ABD   1er    3.4     
3 456  1201-24     CDF   de3    6.6     
7 780  120-24      EFg   d45    9.6 
9 657  1218-24     VGA   9ml    8.7
so I want all data from c1 on sheet 2 to be searched on sheet 1, if matched then paste to row 2 sheet 2, c2 on sheet 2 to be searched on sheet 1, if matched then paste to row 3 sheet 2, etc.
I found this code from this site:
Sub SearchForString()
Dim LCopyToRow As Integer
On Error GoTo Err_Execute
'Start copying data to row 2 in Sheet2 (row counter variable)
LCopyToRow = 2
Dim sheetTarget As String: sheetTarget = "sheet2"
Dim sheetToSearch As String: sheetToSearch = "sheet1"
Dim targetValue As String: targetValue = Sheets(sheetTarget).Range("C2").Value  'Value in sheet2!A1 to be searched in sheet1
Dim columnToSearch As String: columnToSearch = "C"
Dim iniRowToSearch As Integer: iniRowToSearch = 2
Dim LSearchRow As Long 'As far as it is not clear the number of rows you will be considering, better relying on the long type
Dim maxRowToSearch As Long: maxRowToSearch = 2000 'There are lots of rows, so better setting a max. limit
If (Not IsEmpty(targetValue)) Then
    For LSearchRow = iniRowToSearch To Sheets(sheetToSearch).Rows.Count
        'If value in the current row (in columnToSearch in sheetToSearch) equals targetValue, copy entire row to LCopyToRow in sheetTarget
        If Sheets(sheetToSearch).Range(columnToSearch & CStr(LSearchRow)).Value = targetValue Then
            'Select row in Sheet1 to copy
            Sheets(sheetToSearch).Rows(LSearchRow).Copy
            'Paste row into Sheet2 in next row
            Sheets(sheetTarget).Rows(LCopyToRow).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
            'Move counter to next row
            LCopyToRow = LCopyToRow + 1
        End If
        If (LSearchRow >= maxRowToSearch) Then
            Exit For
        End If
    Next LSearchRow
    'Position on cell A1
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    Range("A1").Select
    MsgBox "All matching data has been copied."
End If
Exit Sub
Err_Execute:
MsgBox "An error occurred."
End Sub
but it won't let me move from c2 to c3 on sheet2, and also the code LCopyToRow = LCopyToRow + 1, not moving to the next row on sheet2.
Your help much appreciated.
thank you
EDITED:
I change the line Dim targetValue As String: targetValue = Sheets(sheetTarget).Range("C2").Value ---- >> it was range ("A2"). thank you
