Default Copy Paste Special Values


Hello again!
I have a formula IF(A1=2,"",A2) if there is a 2 in A1 and I cop
the cell and then paste-special-values to another cell it leaves a ' i
the cell which is causing me problems when I use an end-up or down t
select the range. I only want to select cells that have data in the
not '. Is there a way to leave a cell "truely blank" when using
formula in it? or! Is there a way I can delete the ' s only from
range and leave the rest of the data to be selected?
The goal here is to take the data produced from a range of formula
(not all rows produce data each time) and copy it to a list that can b
added to by the same process. In other words the list just keeps gettin
longer (no empty rows) each time data is "Posted " from the range o
formulas.
I'm sure there is a more efficient way to do it than my "cop
paste-special-values and sort" method.
As always, help is greatly appriciated. Thanks!

Default Copy Paste Special Values

Instead of using paste=Special, Values use

ActiveCell.Formula = ActiveCell.Value
