Hi, I have the following code. What it does is that it automatically adds a new row when some conditions are fullfilled. This works good, but I am having problem with the next step, which is to copy and paste the value in "D35" To the new created row in column "AB".

As you can see below, after I added a new row I have the following code:
Range("D35").Copy .Cells(R, Col).Offset(1, 2).Paste

But this gives me error 438: "Object Doesn't Support This Property or Method". Anyone have a solution for this?



Code:
Sub Addrows()


    Dim Col As Variant
    Dim BlankRows As Long
    Dim LastRow As Long
    Dim R As Long
    Dim StartRow As Long


        Col = "Z"
        StartRow = 1
        BlankRows = 1


            LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, Col).End(xlUp).Row


            Application.ScreenUpdating = False


            With ActiveSheet
For R = LastRow To StartRow + 1 Step -1
If .Cells(R, Col) = Range("D35") And .Cells(R, Col).Offset(0, 2) <> "" And .Cells(R, Col).Offset(1, 0) = "" Then
.Cells(R + 1, Col).EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlDown


Range("D35").Copy .Cells(R, Col).Offset(1, 2).Paste




End If
Next R
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True


End Sub

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Use
Code:
Range("D35").Copy .Cells(R, Col).Offset(1, 2)

Use
Code:
Range("D35").Copy .Cells(R, Col).Offset(1, 2)

Hmm, this created another issue thought.. I only want to paste the value. How can I do this? Normally I would use PasteSpecial but because we do not use .paste, how can I achieve that?
