Question

I've exported data from Project 2010. The result is a long table containingg 7 types of information. I want to copy portions of the table to adjacent columns. I used the macro recorder to

add autofilters

select the section I want to copy using the autofilter.

deselct the autofilter

scroll to the cell I want to paste the date to.

I receive an error 1004 that the paste method of worksheet class failed.

Here's the code:

    ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$H$288").AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="1"
    Range("A1").Select
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
    Range("A1:G42").Select
    Selection.copy
    Selection.End(xlUp).Select
    ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$H$288").AutoFilter Field:=3
    Range("I1").Select
    ActiveSheet.Paste

The code failed at "ActiveSheet.Paste"

Thanks in advance for the help!!!!.

Explanation / Answer

Perhaps if you modify the code like this:

    ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$H$288").AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="1"
    Range("A1").CurrentRegion.copy Destination:=Range("I1")
    ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$H$288").AutoFilter Field:=3
