Deleting extra rows
 

Hi,

I created a macro that copies a set of data into a template.

Since the data vary in size, I had to make full column ranges so I
would always cover the cells with data. I also recorded a macro that
creates a formula based on two of those columns then copy/pastes the
formula down to the end of the spreadsheet (eg cell D65536).

After I run the macro to copy the data into the template and perform
the necessary calculations, how can I delete the remaining rows so all
I have are blank cells under the last row of data on my template.

Range("EXP_LF").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("Sheet8").Select
Range("N2").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Range("O2").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-3]-RC[-7]"
Range("O2").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("O3").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormulas, Operation:=xlNone,
_
SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Application.CutCopyMode = False

Thank you

Hi,

Instead of filling down and then delete try this

Range(Range("N2").End(xlDown).Offset(0, 1), Range("O2")).FillDown

You can also refine the macro a little:

Range("EXP_LF").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("Sheet8").Select
Range("N2").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Range("O2").FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-3]-RC[-7]"
Range(Range("N2").End(xlDown).Offset(0, 1), Range("O2")).FillDown
Application.CutCopyMode = False

Thank you very much. This is what I needed to do in the first place.

The other problem I have is that in order to copy the entire ranges
without leaving any data behind, I created (defined) ranges from A2 to
A65536, and B2 to A65536 and so on.

Once I export my data to Excel, and run the macro, is there a way to
only select the cells that have data in them? or do I have to do this
to prevent leaving something behind?

Why not sort the data to remove the blank lines.
