Default ActiveSheet.Paste takes FOREVER!!

Hi,

I need booting into a better direction...

I have several sheets containing formulas in Row 2 (sometimes from
columns A to DM..) which need copying down a large (sometimes 2000)
numer of rows. I use something along the lines of...

Worksheets("X").Activate
Worksheets("X").Select
Ranhe("A2").Select
Rnage(ActiveCell,ActiveCell.End(xlRight)).Copy
Range("A2:DM" + intRowCount).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste

...at which stage the processor fan goes a million rpm, and I fall
asleep waiting for something to happen. The normal speed-enhancing
settings are correct( e.g. calculate is xlManual, screenupdating is
false, etc.). Any significant, problem recommendations will warrant
hero-worship.

Thanks

Mike
