Thank u all for immediate response.

The sheet is not protected.
And we are deleting all the contents in the entire region and we need to
copy new contents from other sheet.

We selected the Range and gave selection.delete. but this is not deleting
the contents which is causing problem.

But if we give selection.clearcontents, it is working.
We are little bit confused of this behaviour.

Please help us.

Thanks,
Radhakrishna

Selection.Delete should also include the direction to shift cells otherwise
Excel decides. I wonder if this is causing a problem. Options a-

Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp

Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft

Selection.EntireRow.Delete

Selection.EntireColumn.Delete



Based on your other comments re clear, I suppose you really do want to
delete which removes the rows or columns within the selection and places the
columns to the right or rows from below in their place. Selection.Clear just
removes the data out of the cells.

Hi all,
we are currently using MSExcel 2003 version. We are facing a problem of
deleting perticular data by selecting the range. We are first selecting the
specified range and we are doing the selection.delete operation using macro.
But it is selecting the range but it is not deleting. If i gave
selection.clearformats and selection.clearcontents it is deleting fine. The
selection.Delete is working fine for remaining workbooks. can any one give
your opinion about this.
