    My answer will better look like a comment but it is too long to fit in a comment (and cannot be formatted properly).

    How to loop over a range

    I advise you to have a look at Chip Pearson page about optimizing VBA, especially looping over range in VBA.

    When you loop over range, you shoul use the for each statement as described in this example:

    Dim WS as Worksheet
    For Each WS In Worksheets
        MsgBox WS.Name
    Next WS
    
    Dim i as Integer
    For i = 1 To Worksheets.Count
        MsgBox Worksheets(i).Name
    Next i
    

    Finding the last empty cell

    Your code seems to try to find the last empty cell. You can do it easily with

    With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
        .Cells(.Rows.Count,1).End(xlUp)
    End With
    

    You can find some more tips on ozgrid (even if they don’t use rows.count)

    Avoiding Selects

    Your code will be very very slow if you are trying to Select every cell in a loop.

    You’d better use the object model of VBA.
    For instance, if you only want to copy the value of a cell:

    Don’t do

    Range("A1").Select
    Selection.Copy
    Range("A2").Select
    Selection.Paste
    

    Do

    Range("A2").Value = Range("A1").Value
