A Macro Setting That Would Cause A Run-time Error 1004
May 6, 2009
Is there a setting within excel that could cause a user to get a run-time error 1004? I have a workbook with a macro that adds additional sheets to the workbook when a button is clicked. The thing works fine on my machine and 3 or 4 other machines that I have had guys test it out, but I have a user that it will not work for. He is at a location about 3 hours away so I cant see exactly what he is doing, but he says after he clicks the button he gets a run-time error 1004 that says "Unable to set the PrintQuality property of the Page Setup class". I'm thinking that it is a setting within excel?

I have a macro, operating in my excel document. It works and does it's function. The only problem is every time this macro is running I get the run time error 1004, Method 'SaveAs' of object '_Workbook' failed. After clicking End in the error window it opens up a newly created sheet that I need. I don't need to save the file in the desktop, I need it just to open up like it does right now.

I have created a macro which sorts 4 columns of data in asceding order numerically. I have assigned this macro to a button so that when the button is clicked, the columns of data are sorted.
Unfortunately when the button is pressed i get a vba run-time error 1004. I havent a clue how to resolve this. I recorded the macro useing the excel recorder function as opposed to typing it out manually.
The code created is given below. If i click debug when the error pops up, the code referring to column f:f is highlighted yellow.

Basically my code is bombing at the red highlighted code. Error: "Run-time error '1004': Copy method of Worksheet class failed"
Sheet "Blank Form" is a hidden sheet. Can I alter the red section of code to work while being a hidden sheet? I tried a few variations but nothing seems to work..

Im almost finished my first code where the basic idea was to make activecell.name=activecell.value in the first column for the first 3 sheets. After messing with it i figured i couldnt have spaces in the cell name...then i learned i couldnt have random '()-'/ either. So i have the code formatted to do that and then its supposed to call to rename everything as well. but after the 1 sheets column is renamed the 2nd sheet gets error 1004 when range("A3").select is hit. What gives?
This is what ill be using the code on
[URL]
Here is the code
Code:
Sub RemoveChars()
' Works through first 3 sheets '
Sheets(1).Select

I am using the below code to select some spreadsheets under a folder, open them, select the entire font, change it to Arial and close the file. I am passing the file names from Column A and calling the below procedure in a loop. Everything works fine except the below problem.
If the file name I passed doesn't exist or the file is not accessable, I am getting an error message "File cannot be accessed. The file may be read only......" with two options "Retry" and "Cancel". When I click Cancel , it takes me to my code and stops at the line marked in red with Run-Time error '1004', Method 'Open' of Object 'Workbooks' failed. When the above error occurs , I need to just pass the value "ERROR" to ErrMsg filed and proceed further with the next file name.
Sub ChangeFont(FileName As String)
Dim objXL, objWb, objR ' Excel object variables
Dim Title, Text, tmp, i, j, file, name
Dim strPathToSaveTo As String
Dim strFileName As String
Dim wkb As Workbook
Dim wkb2Print As Workbook
strFileName = FileName
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Set wkb2Print = Workbooks.Open(strFileName)
Cells.Select
With Selection.Font
.name = "Arial" .............

The user is asked for one piece of information "Enter the ID Number.
What the macro should do then is go to Wks1 find the ID Number and change some cells as a result. This bit works.
Set Wks2 = Worksheets(strWks)
7 rows from the bottom.
My intention was to capture the the name of another worksheet which is held on the same row as the ID Number on Wks1 and call it strWks.
Then further down the macro set the value of Wks2 to that of strWks so that the macro will then go to that sheet and remove data from the row with the same ID Number.
I get a Time Run Error 9.
It just seems to be the bit at the bottom where I am trying to identify Wks2 using strWks.
Sub Macro01C_Auto_Resign()
Dim Wks1 As Worksheet, Wks2 As Worksheet
Dim strFind As String, rngFound As Range
Dim lngRow As Long, rngUnion As Range, strWks As String ............................

I have 4 command buttons (A-D) so that the users can update after inputting new or revised Data.
My problem is that if updated in order, button D Macro below stops at the first "Selection.AutoFilter..." as if it cannot turn on the Auto Filter.
It will run if I manually set the AutoFilter on the sheet.
I think, and as I am completely new to this please feel free to correct me, the reason that it stops is that on the Button B is a "AdvancedFilter" Macro.

I have inherited a spreadsheet and code that I don't understand much about. I have code
Range("B4").Select
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("Kh07Pivot").PivotFields("Specialty").Subtotals = Array(False, _
False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, _
False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, False, _
False, False, False, False, False, False, False)
which error (run time 1004) and says 'unable to set the SubTotals property of the PivotField class'. If I make the number of False's equal to 12, then it doesn't error. However I don't know whether it is having an adverse effect on the data?

Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(257, 257)).Select
This gives the Run-time error '1004'
I searched these forums for any old posts to work around this but did not find any threads. If anybody knows a good thread about this, I would be greatful.
Basically I run some code to generate Startcolumn, StartRow, EndColumn, EndRow. If there is a limitation of 256, the code is basically useless. I don't know of a way to use the A1 range method whilst using the Range("A1:....")

I have been working on the following worksheet, which has A3-Z27 cells right now and will grow/shrink with time. The spreadsheet shown below is just a portion of the entire worksheet. My vbscript is below the worksheet. I have two worksheets PL Dbase and Waiting List. I am copying columns B thru G from Waiting List if Column J is = to "Yes". To the next available row in worksheet PL Dbase columns B thru G...These columns have the same headings on both worksheets. I am getting the following error, when I click the button I assigned the macro to: Run-Time Error 1004 Copy Method of Range Class Failed.

Sub paste()
' paste Macro
' Macro recorded 2/20/2009 by lawryad
Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1).Select
ActiveSheet.paste
ActiveSheet.paste
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ActiveSheet.Range("p1").Copy
ActiveSheet.Range("a1").Select
End Sub
Now everything works good with this code unless there is nothing copied to paste. In that case it will go to a "run-time error'1004' " I would like instead for a msg box to appear saying "You must copy required data first"

I want to paste data from a table without the header row from one workbook (Test1) into another (Test2), from Test2. Test1 is closed before this operation starts. I'm using the following
Sub Macro2()
Dim myTable As Range
Set myTable = Range("A1").CurrentRegion
Workbooks.Open "C:ExcelTest1"
myTable.Offset(1).Resize(myTable.Rows.Count - 1).Select
Selection.Copy
Workbooks("Test2").Activate
ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End Sub
When I have both workbooks open, comment out the line that opens Test1 and step through the code, it works fine but when I close workbook Test1, and run the macro, it generates the following error message: Run-time error 1004 Application defined or object defined error. When I click 'Debug' it has highlighted the row that has the offset instruction so there is no trouble with opening the workbook Test1.

im having problems calling the hlookup function in vba. Here is the code im using. I get run time error '1004'. Ive tried both setting the range, and manually inputting it. The User Defined Function takes no inputs, but is designed to get the value based on the relative position of the cell in the spreadsheet.
Option Explicit
Option Base 1
Function lastrow()
Sheets("template").Select
Range("A65536").Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
lastrow = ActiveCell.Row
End Function
