ActiveSheet.Paste Error
Apr 27, 2009
I have looked at previous posts and found some information about ActiveSheet.Paste errors, which appear to be related to having activate, select and paste functions in the wrong order.
I am still getting an error at the ActiveSheet.Paste point of my code which I cannot seem to overcome, although this same code works on another macro doing exactly the same action...

Private Sub Workbook_Open()

Dim Filename As String
Dim nFam As Integer
Dim cRow As Integer
Dim i As Integer
ws As Worksheet
Filename = "O:BVRMusers_sharedJCIntraday ToolFamily List.xls"

'Count the number of rows (Families) in Filename (Family List)
Set ws = ActiveSheet
With ws
. Cells(1, 1).Select
cRow = .UsedRange.Rows.Count
End With
End Sub
i cannot get ws to be set as the ActiveSheet. i receive a run time error 91 each time and cannot figure out what is wrong. i've used this code before under subform functions, but this is the first time i've placed it in the "ThisWorkbook" area.

This macro works fine on my machine but not with other users:
This should copy/paste certain cells then paste 3 sheets into a new work book.
ON other computers it seems to paste in a picture? works OK for me?

I wrote a macro on mac office 2004 which work perfectly on my pc but not on my mac.
The macro is very simple
Sub Delete_Next_Sheet()
ActiveSheet.Next.Delete
End Sub
It just delete the next sheet after the activesheet. However on the mac, it doesn´t recognize the Next. It display an alert mesage "Invalid or unqualified reference".
I was woundering if there is another way (as simple and as fast if posible) to get a macro avoiding loop and sheet.count to delete the next sheet after the activesheet.

I am trying to write a small sub which will make do an "AutoFit" for all columns of the Active Sheet. For example, the code below does an "AutoFit" for columns A:J of a sheet. How can I make it do the same for all columns (not only for columns A:J) of the ActiveSheet?
Columns("A:J").EntireColumn.AutoFit

I am trying to use ActiveSheet.Name formula to rename the active sheet. It is only working part of the time and I can't figure out why. I do know, however, when it is going to work and when it is not going to work. If cell A2 contains two words, it does not work. If cell A2 contains only one word, it does work. Here is the code. The highlighted part in blue is the code that names the sheet. I have attached sample spreadsheet if needed.

I've currently got a problem with renaming the ActiveSheet when multiple worksheets are present. The code below, utilizes existing fields on the worksheet and a concat with static text. The code works great if only one sheet is present. However, as soon as the second sheet is inserted in the workbook, I'm now receiving a 1004 error (application-defined or object-defined error).
Code:
Private Sub updateWorksheetName_Click()
Dim fNumber
Dim pCheckNumber

I have a ComboBox. When a user selects an item from the ComboBox and clicks a command button (Add Button) the selection that the user selected writes to a row in the active worksheet and then resets the ComboBox allowing the user to make another choice after clicking the "Add" command button. I am trying to remember how to write the code for row offset so that when the user makes their next selection from the ComboBox and clicks the "Add" command button it puts it the selection in the next row of the active spreadsheet thus creating a running list of the users choices. Here is a line of the
Private Sub cmbAdd_Click()
ActiveSheet.Cells(2, 3) = cbxSeverity
cbxSeverity.Value = ""
End Sub
After the tcbxSeverity.Value ="" line I was testing trying to get to the next row by using something like this:
Private Sub cmbAdd_Click()
ActiveSheet.Cells(2, 3) = cbxSeverity
cbxSeverity.Value = ""
ActiveCell.Offset(1,0).Select
End Sub
I know that this code is incorrect but I cannot remember how to offset or check Rowsource to move to the next line.

I am working on transfering some code from 2003 to 2007. I have gotten almost everything to work, but am now having an issue with the way it places the pictures into my spreadsheet.
The code asks the user to select a folder containing .jpg files. It then places each of the .jpg photos onto a single spreadsheet. Each picture is suppose to be placed in a different cell. When I step through the code, the active cell changes correctly based on the offsets, but it always pastes each photo in cell B4. Through some research I have found others to see this problem with ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert in 2007.
Following is the
Private Sub BatchProcessThumb2x3()
Msg = "Select a file containing the photos you want to insert."
Directory = GetDirectory(Msg)
If Directory = "" Then Exit Sub
If Right(Directory, 1) "" Then Directory = Directory & ""

how to go about or refer me to how exactly you assign a closed workbook to be active. I know this sounds off and its probably the wrong way to word it so here's my problem. I am developing a macro in Visual Basic 2005 using VB. I have a connection string that looks like this:
Private m_sConn4 As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=C:2005.xls;" & _
"Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES"""
What I need to do is connect to it and update which I have done successfully, then save it as 2006.xls. Is there some sort of m_sConn4.SaveAs or something of that nature.

I'm trying to "export" data from a static ws "order" (Sheet2) to a selected (active) worksheet. This will happen with 15 different (random) cells.
I got this far but the copying isn't happening from the correct sheet or going to the active sheet. The data in "G5" on "order" should go to the first unused row on the active sheet. What I got was backwards.
Once I get the first one to work I can finish the code for the other 14 cells. I appreciate getting pointed in the right direction

I have a workbook with 25 sheets containing metric information as part of a performance management model. Fundamental to this is the visual success or failure of each of these 25 sheets which I've highlighted by setting the worksheet tab colour accordingly. The code to achieve this is detailed below. This code is triggered by the Worksheet_Change event at the workbook level and works fine in single user mode. When the workbook is shared however, an error 1004 is generated.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
For Each c In Range("PassFail")
If c.Value = "Fail" Then
ActiveSheet.Tab.ColorIndex = 3
ElseIf c.Value = "Pass" Then
ActiveSheet.Tab.ColorIndex = 4
End If
Next c
End Sub

I'm running Excel 2003 and I have a workbook with an Auto List in Column G. When I attempt to paste a row of data I get the following message.
The operation is not allowed. the operation is attempting to shift cells in a list on your worksheet.
To work around this, I have to convert the list to a range, copy the data and then reapply the Auto List.
Is there another way to work around this or will I have to create vba code or record a macro?

Why this code doesnt work. I'm trying to copy data from one workbook into a specific row in a different workbook. Stepped through the code and get caught out at the last step, which is pasting as values in the 2nd sheet.
The code is posted below. Note: this macro is called from another one and therefore both files are already open. First bit of the code relates to the opened file (not referenced here)
PHP Code:
Sub compilation()Dim lastrow As LongDim r As RangeDim AWB As WorkbookDim lastrow2 As LongSetÂ
AWB = ActiveWorkbookWith AWB.Sheets(1)    Â
lastrow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row  Â
[Code] .........
All works fine until the pastespecial bit. Then I get a 1004 PasteSpecial method of Range class failed.

The procedure below worked quite happily for two months. Now it (usually, but frustratingly not always) fails, with the following error on the asterixed line:
Paste Method of Worksheet Class Failed
If anyone has the inclination, please could you put me out of my misery and suggest what is going wrong, as I have been trying on and off for two weeks to rectify this. What disheartens me is, as I say, I have had no problems with this procedure up until a couple of weeks ago. It takes the ordering info for a particular day and pastes it into the correct day's sheet on the invoicing spreadsheet. Sometimes, when I re-run the procedure it then works......???
Sub Transfer_To_Invoicing()
Dim answer As Variant, active_workbook As Variant
day_num = Range("a127").Value
answer = MsgBox("Do you want to transfer " & Weekday(day_num) & "'s figures to the INVOICING SYSTEM now?", vbYesNo)
If answer vbYes Then Exit Sub
answer = MsgBox("Have you updated the values from the despatch sheets?", vbYesNo)
If answer vbYes Then Exit Sub
Range("a1:dj129").Copy
active_workbook = ActiveWindow.Caption
For Each w In Workbooks.............

I am trying to use the Special Cells Goto and Paste, but I am getting an error saying 'this operation requires the merged cells to be identically sized' when I do the Copy the value that I want, Goto Special|Constants, then Edit|Paste Special|Values|Multiply. The cells containing constants are selected and if they are together, e.g. B7 & B8, then there is no problem, but if they are apart e.g. B7 & B9, I get the error.

I've created a form and would like to use a macro to transfer the form information details (form) from an intermediate worksheet (database intermediate) to the main database worksheet (database).
So far I've only been able to record a simple macro that will do just that. However, when I click on my assigned macro again, the information is washed away and the new form details have replaced it. Been trying to use the x1down coding to make it such that each new data goes onto the subsequent line? But I can't seem to get it right without getting an error message.
I've attached the file to give you a better picture,

I'm working in a rather large (20meg) Excel file with multiple worksheets, references, formatting, etc.
Suddenly, when I attempt to Copy > Paste Special > Formats using more than a few cells at a time, I receive this error message...
"Selection is too large."
That's it - no reference, no nothing. Doesn't matter if I select a few cells, or entire rows, I get the same message everytime. However, I can copy-n-paste the entire 8000+ rows of data into a NEW file with no problems whatsoever. It handles everything - data, formatting, formulas, etc. But within my working file (same worksheet even) I get the error everytime.
I'm not using a macro. This file has worked fine for months. I'm doing absolutely nothing differently than ever before. This error literally just started today.
I know there is some issue with copy/paste of 8100+ non-contiguos cells, but I'm using contiguos cells. And again, I can copy nearly 10K entire rows of data and paste into a new workbook - just not within the same workbook and worksheet.
I've searched online - here, Mr.Excel, Microsoft, everywhere I can think of. Of all the problems I've found answers too, I have yet to find ANYTHING dealing with this problem - except in the context of a macro, which I am not using.
