Excel Macro: Copy and Paste a Range

One of the most common action you’ll need to learn is copying and pasting a range of data. It’s very easy to do this manually. In normal data, we use either CTRL + C to copy a selection of data and then use CTRL + V to paste the selected data in the target cell. It’s just as easy to copy and paste via VBA.

Range.Copy method

Range.Copy Method is a very convenient Method to copy and paste Range to destination in one line of code. All the formatting and formulas will be copied and pasted.

Syntax

Destination is optional. If this argument is omitted, Microsoft Excel copies the range to the Clipboard. It returns Variant.

Example 1: Copy Range and paste to another worksheet

The below code copy Sheet1 A1 to Sheet2 B1.

If there are more than one Range to copy, you just need to specific the first Range of the destination.

Example 2: copy row

The below code copy from Sheet1 row 1:2 to Sheet2 row 6.

Note that if you copy a row to destination, the destination Range must be a Row or a Range in column A.

Example 3: copy row and paste to new inserted row

Example 4: copy column

The below code copy Sheet1 column A:B to Sheet2 column B:C (because it pastes at B1).

Example 5: copy multiple Range to a new Workbook

In case the copied Columns are not adjacent to each other, Set a Range to combine those Columns (or Rows).

The below code copy range1 and then paste to A1 of new workbook.

Example 6: destination argument omitted

The following code example inspects the value in column D for each row on Sheet1. If the value in column D equals A, the entire row is copied onto SheetA in the next empty row. If the value equals B, the row is copied onto SheetB.

Range.PasteSpecial method

When working with your spreadsheet, you likely often have to copy formulas and paste them as values. To do this in a macro, you can use the PasteSpecial method.

Syntax

It returns Variant.

This will make sure that you have same source data in the target sheet. And this will clear any pre formats and reduce the file size.
• Specify Source and Destination Sheets: Try to specify both of the source and destination sheets. So that you can run your macro from any sheet. If your source range is alwas from active sheet, then do not specify the source sheet.
• Do not perform any other operations between Copy and Paste. It is noticed many beginners copy the range and do some task and then pasting the values. Excel will turn off the CutCopy mode and no data will be pasted in your destination sheet.
