Copy and paste Excel Macro

Question

I have a macro I use for pasting in excel it works fine except when copy and pasting from one cell to another. In other words it works fine with say text from a webpage but not from one cell to another. The error message says Run time error '1004': PasteSpecial method of Worksheet class failed. Here is the code:

Sub MousePaste()
'
' MousePaste Macro
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+M
'
    ActiveCell.Select
    ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:= _
        False, NoHTMLFormatting:=True

End Sub

Answer 1

There are two implementations of a PasteSpecial method.

Worksheet.PasteSpecial which pastes from the clipboard and

Range.PasteSpecial which pastes from/to a range.

You probably need the latter, examples in the above links.
