Error In Macro When Auto-pasting Code
Jun 4, 2014
I'm new to VBA but have had it working well for me, until the other night when a user complained that when he ran a macro, it came up with the error "Paste method of Worksheet class failed". I should note that this has worked time and time again, so I'm lost. I also found tonnes of answers with a Google search but they were all relative to that persons code.
So this is the code I am using to paste from the clipboard into another tabbed worksheet :

I have a sheet pasted below for reference. I am trying to make a macro that when I type the word "Completed" into "Sheet1" row N then in this sheet pasted (ProductionList) below the corresponding row gets deleted. I hate explaining this stuff. I'm so bad at it.

I've attached a sample workbook in which there are 3 macro-buttons.
The buttons will paste a shape in the active cell. So this means the buttons themselves could be deleted and replaced with a shape.
Since locking and then protecting the cells disables the macros, how can I amend the code to make sure the buttons' cells are protected from the copying and pasting macros? Or, how do I ensure that the macros only work in A1 - E5?

Why this error is coming up on a macro. Now to what I'm trying to accomplish is I have 1 sheet called GDL and I want to pull certain data from that sheet into another sheet called data sheet. I have formulas set in the data sheet to pull the information I want. However, I want to create a macro to pull the data for those formula or I guess another way of looking at it would be a auto fill function, except with a macro button. Please see the following error I receive when trying to run the macro.
Run-time error '1004': Autofill method of range class failed. The following is the macro.
VB:

Consider two instances of Excel - one with a workbook containing a chart and some VBA code, the other containing a blank workbook. When I paste a chart from the first instance of Excel to the other, all the VBA code from the original workbook is also pasted into a new third hidden workbook in the second instance of Excel! If that weren't weird enough ON WINDOWS XP (but not Windows 2000) if the VBA code included WorkbookOpen or AutoOpen this code is executed in the second instance of Excel, which of course fails if it references sheets that only existed in the workbook open in the first instance of Excel! This is the first time I've seen the same version of Excel do different things on different versions of Windows! Example attached - What's going on!? Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;...note: this does not happen when pasting charts between workbooks open in the SAME instance of Excel

I have a spreadsheet to create with columns A-I, this will be used by others when I am away and the problem is I dont want them to have to keep going into the data-sort option. Is there a way that I can get the items to auto sort into alphetical and numerical order across the columns? Personally I would be happy with sorting the columns manually each time it's accessed but I know the others using the program won't be!! How would it work if its poss? would it auto sort on saving?

I want a Macro to be able to copy a formula down from cell A2 down the entire column within the data range. But, the problem I've got is that the spreadsheets I'll be using the Macro on will be different sizes. Currently, the VBA looks like this:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "= LOWER(RC[3])"
Range("A2").Select
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("A2:A17340"), Type:=xlFillDefault
Range("A2").Select
So the "Destination:=Range("A2:A17340")" part copies the formula into all cells from A2 to A17340. Other spreadsheets might only have data up to cell A200, or Awhatever - is there a way of getting the macro to populate just the cells in column A but only where there is data adjacent in other columns?
Also, I want the Macro to be able to delete all rows wherever "DELETE" appears in a certain column - I had a look at the "Delete Entire Row Based on Criteria" Macro but I'm looking for a fully automated solution, rather than the question boxes coming up and asking which cell/criteria, I need to run this macro on multiple sheets and the criteria/column position will always be the same -

Why does the "else" section of this code cause an error when part of a sheet code but runs fine in a macro?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("B3")) Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub
Else
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheets("Current").Select
Cells.Select
Selection.ClearContents
Target2 = Range("Analysis!A1")
Sheets(Target2).Select
Cells.Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("Current").Select
Cells.Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _

Application.ScreenUpdating = True

I am getting a 1004 error "Paste method of range class failed"
I'm opening a workbook, copying the Detail Budget worksheet, switching to the active workbook, unprotecting the sheet in the active workbook and then pasting the copied worksheet. Both sheets are named Budget Detail. Any ideas?
Using either the pastespecial or activesheet.paste gives the error.
Workbooks.Open newfn
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Sheets("Detail Budget").Select 'select Detail Budget tab in the Budget Template file
Cells.Select
Selection.Copy
'now paste in the this workbook
ThisWorkbook.Activate
Sheets("Detail Budget").Select 'select Detail Budget tab in the BCL workbook
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Detail Budget").Unprotect PSWRD
Range("a1").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAll, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
' ActiveSheet.Paste
(both paste methods fail)

I've created a form and would like to use a macro to transfer the form information details (form) from an intermediate worksheet (database intermediate) to the main database worksheet (database).
So far I've only been able to record a simple macro that will do just that. However, when I click on my assigned macro again, the information is washed away and the new form details have replaced it. Been trying to use the x1down coding to make it such that each new data goes onto the subsequent line? But I can't seem to get it right without getting an error message.
I've attached the file to give you a better picture,

I am trying to create a macro that will take inputs entered into a range of cells in 1 worksheet and then paste it into another range on another sheet. The target range is selected based on a condition and once the values have been pasted then the target range should be locked.
I have been trying the following code but keep getting the Run-time error 1004 telling me that the PasteSpecial method of range class has failed. Can some one explain what I may be doing incorrectly?
Code:
Dim i As String
i = Range("Month").Value
Select Case i
Case "January"
Sheets("INPUT SHEET").Select
Range("Input_In").Select
Selection.Copy

I have created a daily operating room schedule in which each time slot has a drop down box for the Doctor doing the procedure and the Group of doctors from which he/she came.
It is a yearly schedule with each day of each month duplicated on a tab for that month - the same daily schedule for each.
I have been able to duplicate each day right up until the 25th of the month in which I attempt to save the spreadsheet and am given an error stating it can not save some of the data, though the data appears to be intact (the validation drop down lists)
Upon closing and reopening the spreadsheet, all of the cells that contain validation including and after the 25th of the month are simply gone.
I have attempted to attach a copy of the file but I keep encountering an error with the database.
Zip file with xls file has been added

I have a cell built into my spreadsheet that serves as an error check (i.e. returns the word 'ERROR' if certain criteria are fulfilled on the spreadsheet). I'm trying to write something into a Macro that will check this cell and not allow it to run if it states ERROR, returning a dialog box to notify this, is this possible?

I cannot figure out how to get my error handler to work, or actually, not work. It seems to work fine when there is an error, but the code still gets read even when there was not an error. Basically, I am trying to open a file, which may or may not be there. When it is not there I want a message to pop up informing the user. However, when the file is there and it opens, the error handler still gives the message box. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Private Sub btnOK_Click()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Dim LCSfile As String
LCSfile = frmSelectFile.Listbox1.Value
On Error Goto ErrHandler
Workbooks.Open Filename:=sPath & sDate & "" & LCSfile & "QUANT.CSV"
ErrHandler:
MsgBox ("File is not quantitated. Please select another file.")

I have got a workbook with 20 or more worksheets. Every quarter I need to paste/append new data on these worksheets (which has already got existing data from previous quarters). All worksheets have different rows of data, for eg One worksheet may have 10rows, the other may have 50. Hence when I am writing my code, I cannot specify the destination cell as for eg A11, or A51.
How do I write up a VBA code that looks for the last row of data on these various worksheets and then pastes the new information on the next row(new row).
