how to select multiple rows using a macro
I am trying to use 2 different variables and either the ROWS or RANGE command
in a macro to select a continuous block of rows. I want to copy this block from one sheet to another sheet. I have been trying to use the following syntax with no avail: ROWS(firstrownumber,lastrownumber).Select I also tried using: RANGE(firstrownumber:firstrownumber,lastrownumber: lastrownumber).Select I have to use a variable, because the actual row numbers I will be copying and pasting will change every time I run the macro. I can make it work if I only select and copy one row at a time, but in one of my sheets I need to select and copy 2880 rows of data, and doing that one at a time takes about 5 minutes. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thanks. |
