    Method 'Paste' of object '_Worksheet' failed

    I keep getting a method paste of object _Worksheet failed error on my ActiveSheet.Paste command in the code below:

    Public Sub CopyRows()
    Sheets("Sheet2").Select
    ' Find the last row of data
    FinalRow = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
    ' Loop through each row
    For x = 34 To FinalRow
    ' Decide if to copy based on column A
    ThisValue = Range("A" & x).Value
    If ThisValue > 0 Then
    Range("A" & x & ",B" & x).Copy

    Sheets("Sheet3").Select
    NextRow = Range("B65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1
    Range("B" & NextRow).Select
    ActiveSheet.Paste


    Sheets("Sheet2").Select
    End If
    Next x
    End Sub

    Can anyone help?

    I had not tried your earlier code, but now after trying it, I find that it is working fine without any errors. (i.e. by using .Paste)

    Can you tell which line is higlighted when you get the error.

    ActiveSheet.Paste is where I'm getting the error

    When I do it in a cleen workbook, I don't get any errors either - it's only happening in the workbook where all of my data is

    I'm starting to think the workbook is somehow corrupted, but I don't really know what to look for to fix it

    What is the kind of data you have in this particular sheet. Is this the only code that you have. And do you have "Sheet3" in your workbook. After the error, which is the sheet that is displayed. Is it Sheet3...?

    The data is nothing special, some general data, some text, some numbers - but it has been copied between various workbooks a few times before it wound up in my hands (which leads me to believe the data could be corrupted)

    Yes there is a Sheet3, it successfully pastes into the first cell before it errors. I also checked the clipboard, and it successfully copies all of the data out of Sheet2

    What is the number of rows that you need to copy. Also it could be possible that you are going out of the sheet range and thats where it is failing to paste. Maybe you could send me your worksheet and I'll have a look at it. send it to [email protected]
    Don't forget to remove the text remove this from the email id.
