I have been getting this '5' error a lot lately and I dont know why. Many of my macros have had this error. Run-time error '5': Invalid procedure call or argument. The offending (Highlited in Red)
I have the following issue and hope someone can help:
I'm setting a conditional formatting formula in a range of about 2000 cells using VBA. The procedure works fine on my PC, but generates "runtime error 5" on all of my colleagues PC's. (We all use the same version of Excel 2003).
Why this error is coming up on a macro. Now to what I'm trying to accomplish is I have 1 sheet called GDL and I want to pull certain data from that sheet into another sheet called data sheet. I have formulas set in the data sheet to pull the information I want. However, I want to create a macro to pull the data for those formula or I guess another way of looking at it would be a auto fill function, except with a macro button. Please see the following error I receive when trying to run the macro.
Run-time error '1004': Autofill method of range class failed. The following is the macro.
VB: Sub ResetDataSheet() ' ' ResetDataSheet Macro ' Macro recorded 11/13/2012 by asdf ' [Code] ....
The below example creates a new worksheet and tries to get the new worksheets codename. The problem is when I run the code, I can't seem to be able to pull the codename from the newly created sheet (ie Cell A1 = "" instead of "sheetx").
Sub test()Set mysht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Add    x = mysht.CodeName    mysht.Range("A1") = xEnd Sub
This is a simplified version of an earlier, long winded post that clouded my actual question. Can I use a variable to refer to a worksheet by its CodeName? For example, let's assume I have several worksheets, with CodeNames of mySheet1, mySheet2, mySheet3, and so on. I understand that I can refer to them directly,
mySheet1.Range(myRangeName).value = someValue mySheet2.Range(myRangeName).value = someValue mySheet3.Range(myRangeName).value = someValue . but what if I want to do this using a loop? Is it possible to preload an array of CodeNames and do it that way? I'm thinking along the lines of something like...
Dim CodeNames CodeNames = Array( mySheet1, mySheet2, mySheet3 ...)
For x = 1 to HoweverMany CodeNames(x).Range(myRangeName).value = someValue Next x
I have a VBA macro for automatically create a word report using data in Access and Excel. The macro is hosted within a Excel document but are using both Word-, Excel and Access objects/dataTtemplates for the creation.
The errors appears what it seems randomly. The macro iterates the same code a few times even in Office 365 but then it crashes. The most common error messages are:
Error 1:
Run-time error '-2147417851 (80010105)':
Automation error : The server threw an exception.
Error 2:
Run-time error '462':
The remote server machine does not exist or is unavailable
Error 3:
This action cannot be completed because the application () is busy. Choose Switch To to activate and correct the problem.
(no options are working, this hang the application)
If I debug usually the error originates from the code where I ether close the workbook template I'm using:
excelWorkbook.Close False
... or when I paste a chart from Excel to the Word report:
wordDocument.ActiveWindow.Selection.PasteSpecial
Even more strange are that sometimes if I continue to run the macro its all working again. This ONLY happens when the client office installation is O365. Office 2013 works just fine. I thought O365 and Office 2013 was fairly equal?
I can get a worksheet name and index, how do I get the worksheet (Name)? Example:
I delete sheet1, copy sheet3 before sheet2, rename to sheet1 but the VBA name is Sheet4. The index number will be 1 but it is not Sheet1 in the VBA Project Explorer.
I am writing a VBA macro to update a financial workbook. 10 of the sheets within the file are re-names depending on the start of production date. So, in one file they may be CY09, CY10, CY11...and then in another CY10, CY11, CY12. I need to update the Cell L14 on the first CY page to a value on the BOM page.
I want CYXX!F12 = BOM!L14 And CYXX's code name is Sheet3411
To do this, I want to use the code name - because it is the same in all the files I have (100+).
But I cannot find enough/right Codename reference information to make this work.
I would appreciate if someone could help with this particular issue. (A little explanation of when I can and cannot use the codename would be appreciated as well. As this is something I will be maintaining for years.)
I have a Userform that allows a user to select a year eg (2007) from a listbox called yearbox where Yearbox.Value = AddYear. When the user Presses 'OK' the following code runs: ...
I have a cell that is data validated via a list. Currently it contains the entire list of options (Office Names) that I want to be included. However, I am trying to use passwords that I will assign to users (Office Managers) that will allow them to only select their offices from the list. I struggle with VBA so any help would be appreciated!
I use a macro that automatically generates a pivot table, re-formats the data, and then makes sure there are no blanks and that the DATA area of the pivot table is set to SUM OF and not COUNT OF.
It was working just fine yesterday but today it is giving me the following error and is highlighting this section of my
In Excel I've declared an array outside of any sub or function.
Dim programList() As String
Now I want to use that array, populating and depopulating as needed by calling these subs from elsewhere:
Sub addProgramToArray(ByVal x As String) ' Adds worksheet names to an array for use with adjusting program lengths If IsArray(programList) Then thisCount = UBound(programList) End If Redim Preserve programList(thisCount + 1) programList(thisCount) = x
End Sub
Sub removeProgramFromArray(ByVal x As String) ' Removes worksheet names from array, for use with adjusting program lengths ' We do this without resorting the array If IsArray(programList) Then For i = 0 To UBound(programList) - 1 If programList(i) = x Then programList(i) = "" End If Next End If
End Sub
But when run it generates an Error 9 Subscript Out of Range error on the addProgram or removeProgram subs. I suspect it might be the ubound on an empty array, or the fact that I'm trying to use an array I declared outside of the subs.
I use a Macro that when run, will generate an email with the excel sheet attached. See attached example.
My two questions are:
- Is it possible for the body of the email that is generated to have spaces within the text? So it shows more like the below:
"Good morning,
Please find today's forecast for Friday, May 07, 2010 attached.
FRC Treasury Team"
- Also, the colors in the spreadsheet change automatically when the macro attaches the sheet. Why is this? Is it possible to do something so that this does not happen?
I’ve been trying for some time now to change the value in a range of cells according to the value selected in a validated cell list. It works perfectly in a trial version in a new workbook, but not in my project. Here is a simplified example of what I am trying to do, but even this fails (error 1004) in my project (but works fine in a new workbook).
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal target As Range) On Error GoTo err_Err5 If target.Address = "$C$26" Then Range("$C$27") = "" Exit Sub
err_Err5: MsgBox Err.Description, vbExclamation, Err.Number End Sub
Am I doing something really stupid? What difference should I be looking for between my project and the new workbook to cause the error? The worksheet is not protected, I just can’t workout what may be going wrong. I would be very grateful for any advice. Why is it working ok in my trial version?
This code works fine, the problem is if I put a number in, and then backspace in the textbox to change the number, I get a runtime 13, type mismatch. This error only occurs when I delete all the numbers in the cell. For example, say the number in the cell is 5025. If i change it to 5123, that is I did not have to delete the first 5, it will work. If I want to change to something like 4167, i must delete the first 5 and it will give the error. I have only been using VBA for a couple weeks, I assume it's something simple.
Private Sub TextBox1_Change() Dim StaffCost As Single Dim AvgDriveTime As Single Dim AddlDrives As Single StaffCost = OLEObjects("TextBox1").Object.Value AvgDriveTime = Range("E5").Value AddlDrives = Range("F5").Value With Range("G5") .Font.Bold = False .Value = StaffCost * AvgDriveTime * AddlDrives End With End Sub
I have an Excel 2003 spreadsheet used to calculate doses of medication. The value of several cells will depend on what optionbuttons the user selects.
I have entered the first two lines of code below w/o a problem to make certain calculations that are displayed in the specified cells.
I then tried to make an additional calculation to display in cell 6,9, but it always triggers a "Application-defined or object-defined error". For troubleshooting purposes, I moved that line of code directly under the other two lines of similar code that I know work, and simplified the problem line to just arbitrarily set the value of the cell to a value of 2 (instead of the actual formula); it still triggers the error.
Now, the problem is that I am unable to recreate the error, and it always works fine for me. I am the 'excel guy' around the office, but I'm still learning VBA, so I am not entierly sure what is going on in this section of code, but I generally follow it.
Trying to increment worksheet in order to summarize data from all other worksheets. I have 70+ worksheets and I'm trying to copy and paste worksheet and cell reference so that the same data on each worksheet is summarized on one sheet. Worksheets are labeled Cost (1), Cost (2), Cost (3) etc. When I copy the cell reference I can't get the worksheet name to change to the next worksheet:
when the accounts exported to excel, all the tabs shown in the file are generated. However, i need to change tab '3' to tab '10' name to the name stated in tab 'menu'. eg tab 1 need to be renamed as 'BB' (not BB/Bunut), tab 2 to 'GEN' (not GEN/General), etc. All must be capital letter.
I need to create a new worksheet and control both the internal and tab names of the worksheet. The following code works to create the new sheet, and set the external (tab) name.
Sub AddAndRenameWorksheet()
Dim ws As Worksheet
With ActiveWorkbook .Worksheets.Add Before:=Sheets(1) .Worksheets(1).Name = "Schedules" 'changes the external name
End With
End Sub
I do not know how to set the internal name For example, I would normally go into worksheet Properties and change the (Name) property. Is there a way to do this in VBA?
On my workbook I have autocalculation off. I'm trying to think of the best way to trigger a "Calculate" upon changing sheets. So everytime you click on a new sheet, it runs a "Calculate"?
I want to select a specific worksheet by it's VB name. In other words, if the sheet comes up as: Sheet3 (ESF) in the VB Editor, I would like to choose it using the Sheet3 designation. I can do it using the (ESF) designation using:
Sheets("ESF").Select
But I prefer to use Sheet3 so when the users change the name, the macro still works.
I have created a workbook. That has 35 worksheets within it. I have created a series of buttons and put in a macro code so that when the user clicks on the button it changes the active worksheet to what they clicked on.
So basically when they click button b it changes to worksheet b and if they click button c it changes to worksheet c, ETC.
The problem I have is that since it is a macro it works fine on my computer but when it is sent to other users, because of security settings on their pcs it will disable the macro [thus the buttons will not work or show up]. I have created a digital trust certificate for it. However it is alot of steps to install this for the basic user. Is there a way to create a button that will do what I want without using a macro code. In that it will be able to go to many different users and wont have to worry about the buttons not working because of security settings?
