    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select goes to 65536 instead of last filled row

    Hi I try to make an selection in a macro, but it seems to make an selection to the end of the column. For example... the cells are now filled till B144 but after using Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select it goes to B65536. Same happens when I do this manually with Ctrl End Down keys.

    How can I fix this?

    Is there an other way to make this selection?

    Any reason why you want to do the selection?

    If you want to copy (maybe) the data, you do not need to select. If you want to copy from row 144 (or even a row which changes everytime), do this

    I am not sure if that part of coding will work... and I rather leave it as it works exactly on the part that is selected.

    I figured out what is causing the spaces on all the other cells.

    It is the next part of code:

    This part of coding is autofilling the formula all the way till row 65536. If I can make sure it does not go any further then the last filled cell of column C it would help me out a lot.

    Thanks you all!

    It seemed there was a ")" to many at the end of the formula causing the 1004 error..
    I am using Arlu's version now. but I think Norie's would do as well.
