I currently have some code that searches a range for a specific value in one
column. When it finds that value the entire row is selected and added to
range of rows using the Union method. When the search is over, the rows are
deleted.

I want to adapt the code to find the rows as it does, but then select the
same range of columns within each row so that I can copy and paste them to
another sheet. However, I can't paste rows into the cell I want to because
the selections don't match.

My dilemma is that I know how to capture the number of rows selected from
the code, but don't know how to select the same number of rows on the paste
sheet, starting at a specified row.

Alternately, if I could select just the range of columns within the selected
rows in the first place, that would help too. I looked at various angles, and
finally tried this: rngFoundAll.Columns.Select = "B:F". Unlike previous
attempts with Columns property syntax, it at least compiled, but generated
Error 424 (object required) after running the code above it.

If someone could help with this, as always, much appreciated. I think the
second approach would be more elegant, but either one would accomplish what
I'm looking for. Thanks again.

Unless you are not stating everything, it is not necessary
to know how many rows or columns are in the selection
simply paste to a single cell range.

My subject line may have caused confusion. It should have read "selection of
Rows".

Because my code captures entire rows, all the way from column A to column
IV, I can't paste into a range of cells. I have to paste into a corresponding
number of selected rows. Thus my dilemma. Sorry about the typo in the subject
line, and thanks for looking at it. That said, any additional thoughts on how
to change the selection of entire rows to just a range of columns within the
entire row?

Hi Dan,
You would have to paste into a single cell in Column A,
and the out receiving range would be expanded accordingly.
You would have to paste to Column A because that is the
only way the number of columns will match.
