VBA code for copying and pasting content in multiple worksheets - vba

Question

Please help me with a macro for copying and pasting text from Input sheet (worksheet1) to the Reports sheet (worksheet 2) within the same excel file.
Input Sheet Format:
Name- cell J5
Date- cell J6
Start Time- cell J7
End Time- cell J8
Downtime- cell J9
I need a macro for copying J5:J9 and paste it in A2:E2, using transpose function.
Also, the sheet is shared with multiple users so it needs to be pasted in the last available row in the Reports sheet (worksheet 2).
Presently, I am using the following macro code:
Sub Report()
Sheets("Input").Select
Range("J5:J9").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("Reports").Select
Range("A1").Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=True
Range("A1").Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Sheets("Input").Select
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-5
Sheets("Input").Select
Range("J5:J9").Select
Selection.ClearContents
End Sub
I am getting error at "ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select" while running the macro.
Please advise any changes to the code which can help me fixing the issue.
Thanks

You can rewrite everything you're doing in a few lines:
Sub Report()
' Copy the range from J5:J9 on INPUT worksheet
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Input").Range("J5:J9").Copy
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Reports")
' Find the LAST ROW in COLUMN A
Dim lROW As Long: lROW = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
' Paste in cell A-lROW with transpose
.Range("A" & lROW).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, Transpose:=True
End With
' Clear entry in original INPUT sheet
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Input").Range("J5:J9").ClearContents
End Sub
I'm not sure why you're getting an error for offsetting by one row, it works for me - but it's probably to do with your method of "selecting" the last row
