The Autofilter is turned on in the code below.

The copy/paste work (the data is transfered to another worksheet) but
the macro crashes on "WorkSheets("2005").PasteP - with the error
message: "Paste method of worksheet class failed."

When I look at the source worksheet I can see the "marching ants"
around two seperate ranges.

One range is the row that the filter itself is in (rows 2 through 7).
The filter is in Row 7. Rows 1 thorugh 6 are unneeded header
information.

The second range is the data that I am copy/pasting (and it works).

I have killed myself on this one for two days. Can anyone help this
undeserving Newbe?

I also need to find the last row of filtered data not hard code the
range (A2:Z157).

Set srceRng = Range("A8:z157")
srceRng.Select
srceRng.Copy

Now I need to select only the visible rows to copy and eliminate th
hard coding. This skill has been escaping me too.

Thanks

ActiveSheet.Cells.Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVis ible).Select has worked for
me.

Hi Craig,

Set srceRng = Range("A8:z157")
srceRng.Select
srceRng.Copy

Now I need to select only the visible rows to copy and eliminate the
hard coding. This skill has been escaping me too.

Try something like:

Sub TestIt()

Dim Rng1 As Range, Rng2 As Range
Dim srceRng As Range
Dim destRng As Range

Set destRng = ActiveSheet.Range("H200") '<<=== CHANGE
Set Rng1 = ActiveSheet.AutoFilter.Range
Set Rng2 = Rng1.Offset(1).Resize(Rng1.Rows.Count - 1)

Set srceRng = Rng2.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
srceRng.Copy Destination:=destRng

End Sub

Thanks for your suggestions and help.

I would have never got this one to work correctly by myself.
