Why wouldn't this code work in a macro activated by a command button! It copies the cell to the clipboard but won't finish with the paste! Stumped!!:confused:

P.S. Button is on active cell sheet.

Code:
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("N2").CopyActiveCell.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
ActiveCell.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
I basically used triangle shapes with no fill to show bases and then filled black what I needed.

Shapes will not copy over as they are nothing to do with the format.

I just used this and it worked for that particular cell! hmmm..

Code:
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("N2").SelectSelection.Copy
Range("F13").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste

Lol, no, it''s still not doing what I would like it to do. I need it to copy to the active cell in the sheet. I can't use the range for a single cell since it will vary.

In that case is this what you want
Code:
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("N2").Copy
ActiveSheet.Paste
