I'm Confused........................................
I am trying to copy the value of the last cell with a value on sheet 1 column
B to the first blank cell on sheet 2 column B, but I keep getting errors in my script (please see below) am I missing something really obvious? (Error Message "run-time error 1004") Worksheets(2).Cells(1, 1).Value = "CB Barcode" Worksheets(2).Cells(1, 2).Value = "8 Digit Code" Worksheets(2).Cells(2, 2).Value = " " Range("B2").Select Selection.ClearContents Worksheets(1).Select Range("B1").Select ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell).Select Selection.Copy Worksheets(2).Select Range("B2").Select ActiveSheet.Paste Tia Jonathan |

Hi Jonathan
First: Some of your cells and ranges have a sheet address, some doesn't. Which makes it very fragile. Second, you select and activate a lot. Don't, it's slow, ugly and it moves the cursor so the user end up somewhere else than she were before. See if this make sense: Sub Transfer() Dim rSource As Range Dim rTarget As Range Set rSource = Worksheets(1).Cells(65000, 2).End(xlUp) Set rTarget = Worksheets(2).Cells(65000, 2).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) rTarget.Value = rSource.Value Set rSource = Nothing Set rTarget = Nothing End Sub HTH.

Excel 97 ? Set the button's "take focus on click" to False.
But read my other post regarding all the Select stuff you do. HTH. best wishes Harald "Jonathan" skrev i melding ...

Jonathon, generally speaking a CommandButton_Click event code can only deal
with ranges on the same sheet as the button. In your case, with the button on Sheet2, but wanting to involve ranges on Sheet1, put your macro code in a general module and Call it from the CommandButton_Click event. Also, heed Harold's advice about selecting objects. His code, in a general module, will put the value on Sheet1 as you wanted. Only do a Copy/Paste if you need the cell formatting also transfered.

Doh ! The code is in the worksheet module. Of course. Thanks.
The code CAN to a certain degree deal with remote ranges if properly addressed. But it shouldn't, so I second your advice. Best wishes Harald "Mike Fogleman" skrev i melding ...

Yes, the fact that it is in a worksheet module does affect it.
Worksheets(2).Select Worksheets(2).Cells(1, 1).Value = "CB Barcode" Worksheets(2).Cells(1, 2).Value = "8 Digit Code" Worksheets(2).Cells(2, 2).Value = " " Worksheets(2).Range("B2").Select Selection.ClearContents Worksheets(1).Select Worksheets(1).Range("B1").Select ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell).Select Selection.Copy Worksheets(2).Select Worksheets(2).Range("B2").Select ActiveSheet.Paste By qualifying all your range references, it avoids confusion. the code is probably in worksheets(1), so when you just say Range("B2").Select that is the same as saying worksheets(1).Range("B2").Select. Since you just selected worksheets(2), you can't select a cell on worksheets(1) and you get the error. By specifying worksheets(2) (which is your actual intent), excel understands exactly what you want. In a normal module, an unqualified range reference refers to the activesheet, but in a worksheet module, an unqualified range reference refers to the sheet containing the code. But, as Harald said, I strongly endorse not using select. It is much faster and cleaner. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Jonathan" wrote in message ...
