    select dynamic range with dynamic start point

    I need to select a dynamic range (known number of columns, unknown number of
    rows), where the starting row always changes, and paste it to another workbook

    I'm always able to determine the starting cell of the range by searching
    (FIND) for the heading in the report and offsetting by 1 row. I know that
    the data should be in columns A through F, with a dynamic number of rows.
    So, at first I just used some simple code to select the range:
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select

    This worked fine until a report came back with no data under the report
    heading. The above code caused me to have too many columns to paste in the
    other workbook. The number of rows were okay because of the heading for the
    next section of the report stopped the .End(xlDown)

    Any ideas on how to select the range or if the section is blank how do I
    skip this part of the macro?

    THANKS!

    You should be able to adapt the code in
