    Hello robby10,

    To make your posts easier to read, copy, and edit please wrap your code. I did it for you this time. Here is how you can do it next time.

    How to wrap your Code using the # icon
    1. Select all your code using the mouse.
    2. Click on the # icon on the toolbar in the Message window. This will automatically wrap the text you selected with the proper Code tags to create a Code Window in your post.

    To manually wrap your code, use these Bulletin Board Code Tags
    [code]Please [url=https://www.excelforum.com/login.php]Login or Register [/url] to view this content.[/code] at the end of the last line.

    Remember To Do the Following....

    1. Use code tags. Place [CODE] before the first line of code and [/CODE] after the last line of code.
    2. Thank those who have helped you by clicking the Star below the post.
    3. Please mark your post [SOLVED] if it has been answered satisfactorily.

    Hello robby10,

    The problem occurs because the Insert method does the pasting. When you execute the ActiveSheet.Paste, the clipboard is already empty. Here is the working code.
