hehe yeah i had i feeling that it would be difficult to understand. I have
used a filter by using nonblanks and a list of 50 countries showed up. I
want to not add data to these 50 countries by pasting data from another
template as the countries are in the same order. However when i paste the
data it does not paste to the 50 filtered countries, it pastes in the
original data with all the countries. In other words, it pastes in the 50
first cells but the 50 fitered countries are scattered. Hope this is
clearer. Best Regards

Your post isn't all that clear. Just a guess... If you have an autofilter
in place Excel hides the rows that do not match the criteria. The data is
still there, just not visible. If you paste more data to the end of the
filtered list Excel does not automatically extend the autofilter range to
include it. You have to turn off the filter and then reset it. I have no
idea if this helps but maybe you can clarify your question if it doesn't.
