Default Excel not showing steps as I F8 through each line of VBA code

I recently switched from Excel 2003 to 2007. A macro I had would vlookup
information for a particular store into a template sheet, copy that sheet,
paste it as values, and move to the next store. This macro isn't working
anymore. I get an error 440 and it closes Excel for me. So I tried going
showing both Excel and Visual Basic on screen to F8 (step) through the VBA
code. It used to show me what was happening in Excel as I stepped through
each line of code. For example I would F8 on a line of code like
'Sheets("list").Select' and Excel would flip over to the "list" worksheet
before my eyes. So I have two questions.....one, how do I get Excel to
perform as I step through each line of VBA code so I can see what's happening
and two, any ideas on why I'm getting an error 440?
Here's the code:

Sub RunReport()

Default Excel not showing steps as I F8 through each line of VBA code

Youshould use Row.Count as the last row in the worksheet because it could
change. try this

from
Range("a65000").Select

to
Range("A" & Rows.Count).Select

try this is all the places in the code.
