The code below results in an incomplete paste. Only the 1st cell is pasted
and the rest are blank?!!!

'copy
dataWS.Activate
Set xlrng = dataWS.Range(dataWS.Cells(Row, 5), dataWS.Cells(Row, 256))
xlrng.Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Selection.Copy

'paste
xlws.Activate
xlws.Cells(writerow, 1).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone,
SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False

Ideas anyone?
