Format destination data

[gotroots]

First here is code currently being executed:

Please Login or Register  to view this content.

Originally the source was source.Range("D4:D1858").Copy

Then I added colE E4:E1858

The problem is colE is a percentage field, whereas colD is a numbers field.

I am not quite sure how to go about formatting this additional field. Perhaps there is a different approach I should be taking.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Administrative Note:

Welcome to the forum.

We would very much like to help you with your query, however you need to include code tags around your code.

Please take a moment to add the tags. Posting code between tags makes your code much easier to read and copy for testing, and it also maintains VBA formatting.

Please see Forum Rule #2 about code tags and adjust accordingly. Click on Edit to open your post, then highlight your code and click the # icon at the top of your post window. More information about these and other tags can be found here

Maybe use xlPasteValuesAndNumberFormats

Percentages are really numbers too. Try to treat them as numbers, then at the end format them back: Selection.Style = "Percent"

Terribly sorry about that Alan, will pay more attention to the rule the next time.

Simple enough solution in the end, many thanks.

You had two solutions suggested; which was the one used?
