How to create a macro to copy and paste in the next empty row

 

Requirement:

 

The user has a range of rows and wants to copy the last range and paste to the next empty row.

For example, in the attachment file, there is 3 set of data separate in three Sprints, anytime the user wants to add a newsprint would like to copy the last sprint and add it to the next empty row. The idea is to create a macro to automate it through a button.

This is the current VB macro code:

Sub NewSprint()
'
' NewSprint Macro
' including new sprint
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+M
'
Range("A29:P40").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial (xlPasteAll)

End Sub

Solution:

 

Code:
Sub NewSprint()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim LastRow As Long
    LastRow = Cells.Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
    Dim findSprint As Range
    Set findSprint = Range("A:A").Find("Sprint", After:=Cells(1), LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
                        SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=False)
    If Not findSprint Is Nothing Then
        Range("A" & findSprint.Row & ":P" & LastRow).Copy Cells(LastRow + 2, 1)
    End If
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
