Kittie007 Don't know what you mean by PST. And the data you are trying to copy is in A37:E147. Correct? If not, indicate which cells you select, copy and paste. Can you make a screen shot of the error message and upload it as well?

See how it says ""this action wont work on multiple selections or sections""
Out of sheer urgency with tons of work ahead of me I did figure out a remedial way to execute the correct transfer. Just how this info was copied and pasted to EXCEL, I went back to step 1 copied the entire sheet, transferred it into WORD with the correct formatting. I simply selected the time frame from start to stop and pasted it back into EXCEL. Granted this is triple the amount of work for me......but I cant afford to stop lol
Im hopeful you can figure this fundamental out for me Riny! Come on Riny!!

Kittie007 But you still haven't explained what exactly you are copying and pasting. Going from Excel to Word and back doesn't seem to best way, indeed. And, I would like to see the error message. Not just the text. Can't remember that I have ever seen it.
- Kittie007Dec 07, 2021Copper ContributorPacific Standard Time Zone PST and correct. I did this correct yayy!
Ok error code coming next
- Kittie007Dec 07, 2021Copper Contributorhummmm this looks like I didnt save it as a workbook so you can view the doc in EXCEL Spreadsheet!
