I'm trying to copy entire column in sheetA to Sheet B. sheetA column has values formed with formuls. I'm copying SheetA column values only using xlPasteValues. But it is not paste the values to another sheetB. The column in sheetB is empty. My VBA Code
Public Sub CopyrangeA()
Dim firstrowDB As Long, lastrow As Long
Dim arr1, arr2, i As Integer
firstrowDB = 1
arr1 = Array("BJ", "BK")
arr2 = Array("A", "B")
For i = LBound(arr1) To UBound(arr1)
With Sheets("SheetA")
lastrow = Application.Max(3, .Cells(.Rows.Count, arr1(i)).End(xlUp).Row)
.Range(.Cells(1, arr1(i)), .Cells(lastrow, arr1(i))).Copy
Sheets("SheetB").Range(arr2(i) & firstrowDB).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End With
Next
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub

If you are wanting to just copy the whole column, you can simplify the code a lot by doing something like this:
Sub CopyCol()
Sheets("Sheet1").Columns(1).Copy
Sheets("Sheet2").Columns(2).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End Sub
Or
Sub CopyCol()
Sheets("Sheet1").Columns("A").Copy
Sheets("Sheet2").Columns("B").PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End Sub
Or if you want to keep the loop
Public Sub CopyrangeA()
Dim firstrowDB As Long, lastrow As Long
Dim arr1, arr2, i As Integer
firstrowDB = 1
arr1 = Array("BJ", "BK")
arr2 = Array("A", "B")
For i = LBound(arr1) To UBound(arr1)
Sheets("Sheet1").Columns(arr1(i)).Copy
Sheets("Sheet2").Columns(arr2(i)).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
Next
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub
since you only want values copied, you can pass the values of arr1 directly to arr2 and avoid copy/paste.
code inside the For loop, inside the With block, after lastrow calculation:
Sheets("SheetB").Range(arr2(i) & firstrowDB).Resize(lastrow).Value = .Range(arr1(i) & 1).Resize(lastrow).Value
Personally, I would shorten it a touch too if all you need is the columns:
For i = LBound(arr1) To UBound(arr1)
Sheets("SheetA").Columns(arr1(i)).Copy
Sheets("SheetB").Columns(arr2(i)).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Next
as from this code snippet, there isnt much point in lastrow or firstrowDB
You may use this too
Sub CopyPaste()
Sheet1.Range("A:A").Copy
Sheet2.Activate
col = 1
Do Until Sheet2.Cells(1, col) = ""
col = col + 1
Loop
Sheet2.Cells(1, col).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End Sub
I've had this problem before too and I think I found the answer.
If you are using a button to run the macro, it is likely linked to a different macro, perhaps a save as version of what you are currently working in and you might not even realize it. Try running the macro directly from VBA (F5) instead of running it with the button. My guess is that will work. You just have to reassign the macro on the button to the one you actually want to run.
you may use this:
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
selection=selection.values
this do things at a very fast way.
