macro help

[1newguy1]

what i am trying to accomplish is

i have several worksheets in a workbook- i have combobox1 on my "main" worksheet-
my combobox1 is populated with all my worksheet names- so my question is-
How can i Copy a row from "main" and paste it to a worksheet that is selected in my combobox1- i need to find the first free row and all that good stuff when pasting-
i tried recording a macro and i am totally lost.
thanx in advanced

With more information about what row(s) to copy and where to paste them and how to action the macro, you'll get a better answer.

Here's one way - assumes the following:
1. Required cells are selected before selecting an option in the combobox
2. The macro is to run once the user selects an option in the combobox

wow thanx for the quick reply i think iam on the right track- but when i debug i get an error at

ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(ComboBox1.Value).Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial (xlPasteValues)

Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
If ComboBox1.Value <> "" Then
Rows("18:19").Select
Selection.Copy
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(ComboBox1.Value).Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial (xlPasteValues)
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
End Sub

What's the error?
Where i have ComboBox1 you'll need to substitute in the name you have give your ComboBox.
You needn't select to rows first, go straight to copy.
