I am new to VBA and I am struggling trying to make this work. I am in need of a macro that will process each cell\column on Sheet1 and put the results on Sheet2. I'm sure this is pretty easy for those who are more advanced with VB code. It contains many columns..

Anytime we encounter a or an empty cell, we populate the cell with -999 (see the example on Sheet2) on the first column, which contains "0-2". Then we create 2 new columns and populate them with 0 on the first column and 2 on second column (see example on Sheet2). If a value is found on only one side, we then populate both sides with the same number.

As each column is being process in Sheet1 and

Sheet1:


A               B
Column1         Column2
Title           Title2
0–2             0–4
3               —
—               5
—               
—               —
10–23           11—29

And the results should look like this on Sheet2

Sheet2


A          B            C            D
Column1    Column1      Column2      Column2   
Title-A    Title-B      Title-A      Title-B
0          2            0            4
3          3            -999         -999
-999       -999         5            5
-999       -999         -999        -999
—999       -999         -999        -999
10         23           11           29
