Usedrange adding range that is not used

[Afro_Cookie]

There's a portion of my code I use to cut and paste the used range from one sheet to another. Recently it's started adding extra lines into the used range which is affecting my table by adding blank lines. This is mildly inconvenient as I have to manually delete the lines, but it's not supposed to add them in the first place.

Any advice on how to correct or tweek my code/trouble shoot this?

This is just a portion of the code.

' Remove Duplicates

    ActiveSheet.Range("A:I").RemoveDuplicates Columns:=Array(4, 6, 7), Header:=xlNo

'paste used range after ducplicates are removed

    ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Select
    
    Selection.Cut
    Sheets("abcd").Select
    Range("A" & Cells.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select
    ActiveSheet.Paste

So right now that code should cut and paste 6 lines, but it is taking 10 instead and I have no idea why.

"UsedRange" is not all that reliable. If you delete rows, like your code is doing, it does NOT reset the UserRange.
There are other ways to find the last cell. See: Find last row, column or last cell

If there are no completely blank rows/columns in the middle of your data, you may be able to use CurrentRegion, i.e.
ActiveSheet.Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Select
Otherwise, use one of the other methods mentioned in the link.

Switched the UsedRange to CurrentRegion. Worked perfectly. Thanks.
