My macro code is doing a slow hang when I try to extend the formulas in I2 and J2 down through however many rows there are. It only does this when row 2 is the last row, i.e., when there is only 1 row of data below the header labels. By "slow hang" I mean the progress bar pops up, you can tell it's working through something. Then the values in I2 and J2 appear briefly in each cell in columns I and J and then disappear. Here's my code:

Code:
 'Format fields - Change Product code, Quantity, and Pump# for copied rows
        'Product
    Range("I2").Select
        Application.CutCopyMode = False
        ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[-8]>0,2,"""")"
        
        'Quantity
    Range("J2").Select
        ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[-9]>0,RC[17],"""")"
    Range("I2:J2").Select
        Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("I2:J" & Range("A2").End(xlDown).Row), Type:=xlFillDefault

I use "Range("XX").End(xlDown).Row" all the time to find the last row and I've never had problems before. Is this a technique that is not suited to instances where you can't extend--where the row in the code (here row 2) is the final row?

Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Try using this:
Code:
 'Format fields - Change Product code, Quantity, and Pump# for copied rows
        'Product
    Range("I2").Select
        Application.CutCopyMode = False
        ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[-8]>0,2,"""")"
        
        'Quantity
    Range("J2").Select
        ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[-9]>0,RC[17],"""")"
    Range("I2:J2").Select
        Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("I2:J" & Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row), Type:=xlFillDefault
NOTE:If that doesn't work, try removing ", Type:=xlFillDefault"
