here is the code:

VBA Code:
Sub Copyfrom_EXP12017_APINVOICE()
Dim Wb1, Wb2 As Workbook
Dim ws1, ws2 As Worksheet
Dim Row, i, j As Long

'Set Variables
Set Wb1 = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\jose.rossi\Desktop\Excel Files\EXPENSES_TESTING\EXP12017_IMPORT\EXP12017.xlsm")
Set Wb2 = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\jose.rossi\Desktop\Excel Files\EXPENSES_TESTING\EXPENSE_IMPORT.xlsm")
Set ws1 = Wb1.Worksheets("EXP12017")
Set ws2 = Wb2.Worksheets("EXPENSE")
Row = ws1.Range("A2").End(xlDown).Row
j = 2

'Stop Screen Updating
' Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'Application.EnableEvents = False
'Application.DisplayStatusBar = False
'Application.Echo False

'Copy Column A
For i = 2 To Row
    ws1.Range("A" & i).Copy
    ws2.Activate
    ws2.Range("A4" & j).Select
    ActiveCell.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
    ws1.Activate
    j = j + 1
Next i

'Copy Column B
j = 2
For i = 2 To Row
    ws1.Range("B" & i).Copy
    ws2.Activate
    ws2.Range("B4" & j).Select
    ActiveCell.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
    ws1.Activate
    j = j + 1
Next i
'Copy Column F
'j = 2
'For i = 2 To Row
    'ws1.Range("F" & i).Copy

    'ws2.Activate
    'ws2.Range("B19" & j).Select
    'ActiveCell.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
    'ws1.Activate
    'j = j + 1
'Next i

'Copy Column I
j = 2
For i = 2 To Row
    ws1.Range("I" & i).Copy
    ws2.Activate
    ws2.Range("A19" & j).Select
    ActiveCell.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
    ws1.Activate
    j = j + 1
Next i

'Copy Column J
j = 2
For i = 2 To Row
    ws1.Range("J" & i).Copy
    ws2.Activate
    ws2.Range("C4" & j).Select
    ActiveCell.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
    ws1.Activate
    j = j + 1
Next i


'Copy Column K
j = 2
For i = 2 To Row
    ws1.Range("K" & i).Copy
    ws2.Activate
    ws2.Range("D4" & j).Select
    ActiveCell.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
    ws1.Activate
    j = j + 1
Next i


'Close Wb1
'Wb1.Close

'Cancel Variables
Set Wb1 = Nothing
Set Wb2 = Nothing
Set ws1 = Nothing
Set ws1 = Nothing
Row = 0
i = 0
j = 0

'Restore Screen Updating
'Application.ScreenUpdating = True
'Application.EnableEvents = True

End Sub


Putting all of t them row 42:

Thank you,
it hard to say what wrong when your problem not cleary but i can change your code like this:
VBA Code:
Sub Copyfrom_EXP12017_APINVOICE()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
    Dim Wb1 As Workbook, Wb2 As Workbook
    Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet
    Dim lr As Long, i As Long
    Set Wb1 = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\jose.rossi\Desktop\Excel Files\EXPENSES_TESTING\EXP12017_IMPORT\EXP12017.xlsm")
    Set Wb2 = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\jose.rossi\Desktop\Excel Files\EXPENSES_TESTING\EXPENSE_IMPORT.xlsm")
    Set ws1 = Wb1.Worksheets("EXP12017")
    Set ws2 = Wb2.Worksheets("EXPENSE")
    lr = ws1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row 'your old code had duplicate "Row" variable with VBA, and it just find to next empty cell, that means if in row A has empty cell, it will stop at that
    'because you set j=2 and it equal to i so i change it to 40+i, that mean ws2 start at row 42
    'i deleted all "select" and "activate" because we don't need them and its made code run slower
    For i = 2 To lr
        ws2.Range("A" & 40 + i).Value = ws1.Range("A" & i).Value
        ws2.Range("B" & 40 + i).Value = ws1.Range("B" & i).Value
        ws2.Range("A" & 190 + i).Value = ws1.Range("I" & i).Value 'you copy value from column I of ws1 to row 192 column A of ws2 right?
        ws2.Range("C" & 40 + i).Value = ws1.Range("J" & i).Value
        ws2.Range("D" & 40 + i).Value = ws1.Range("K" & i).Value
    Next i
    Set Wb1 = Nothing
    Set Wb2 = Nothing
    Set ws1 = Nothing
    Set ws1 = Nothing
    Row = 0
    i = 0
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
