Sub test()
' to use sheet name, change ActiveSheet by Worksheets("Sheet1")
rownum = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
colnum = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count
MsgBox "Row: " & rownum & vbNewLine & "Column: " & colnum
End Sub

Example of how to use it:

Sub test()

rownum = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
colnum = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count
' copy line 2 and paste to sheet2 on line 2
' change Sheet2 by your sheet
Range("A2:C2").Copy Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A" & rownum)
' copy line 2 and paste to sheet3 from line 1 to line 2
' change Sheet3 by your sheet
Range("A2:C2").Copy Worksheets("Sheet3").Range("A1:A" & rownum)
End Sub
