I have tried recording it manually using a macro as Dave suggested and
the code Deepak suggested with no luck.
Here's the weird part, if the source is anything other than another
Excel workbook, the past special code works fine. For example if I
copy something out of Word, IE, Outlook, or even the same Excel
workbook, the past special VBA I have works with no errors. But if my
copy source is another Excel workbook, I get the "Run-time error
'1004': PasteSpecial method of Range class failed" message.
I was thinking maybe it had something to do with selecting the right
workbook, so I tried:
Workbooks("Workbook.xls").Activate
Sheets("Sheet_Name").Select
Range("A1").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
Range("A1").Select
Workbook.xls is the name of the workbook I am pasting to and
Sheet_Name is the name of the sheet in Workbook.xls I am pasting to.
Any thoughts on this one? Thanks.
