Compile Error: Ambiguous Name Detected: Worksheet_Change
Oct 28, 2008
Receiving the following error:
Compile Error:
Ambiguous name detected: Worksheet_Change
How can I resolve this? Is there a way to combine these two (2) statements?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$O$3" Then
Range("B2:L13").ClearContents
Range("A17:A27").Copy
Sheets("Letter").Range("A16:A26").PasteSpecial xlValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "TextBody" Then
Range("A17:A27").Copy
Sheets("Letter").Range("A16:A26").PasteSpecial xlValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
Hello, Im using a script that allows me to autocomplete a data validation list using a combo box and the code shown below. However I am getting a compile error ambigous name detected and the following line is highlighted
"Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)"
I know its because this is used twice but I am not sure what to do in order to fix this.
I need to have this spread sheet date when a cell is changed. I have set up the Visual Basic editor and it works for the column D when updated puts the date in column E.
But I have duplicated what I want for the other columns but I get ambiguous name detected and the other columns do not work my knowledge of macros has hit its limit ...
I need to use both of these VBA scripts in my excel project. The first is this:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) If Sheets("Sheet2").Range(ActiveCell.Address).Value = 1 Then ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3 End If End Sub
The second is this:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) Dim lScrollRow As Long Dim lScrollColumn As Long Dim lTargetRow As Long Dim lTargetColumn As Long Application. ScreenUpdating = False lScrollRow = ActiveWindow.ScrollRow lScrollColumn = ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn..................
When I enter both into the script box and then try to run it, it says that there is a compile error with an "ambiguous name detected "worksheet_selectionchange"
my macros to search for the word "Cancel" in columns "T". Once found, I need the macros to make that entire row a certain pattern ( .Pattern = xlGray16)
There will be other wording in these cells that contain "Cancel" or "Cancelled".
A compile error keeps occurring. It says "Ambiguous name detected: FormatCell"..
I want to include a progress bar in my macro and have got the code from another website. However, after the progress bar is displayed i cannot get it to move to the next line of code in the module. In the example i've got, the code in the user form window simply calls a sub called "main" and continues on through that sub. Whenever i call one of my sub routines an error box states" ambiguous name detected". This never happens with the sub called "main"? Why is this happening? A portion of the code is shown below. After "userform1.show", the user form is displayed but the program will not move on to "get_blades" sub routine?
Browse_Folder ' Sub routine "browse_folder" selected to select folder ' containing the mea files.
UserForm1.LabelProgress.Width = 0 UserForm1.Show
' HourGlass
get_blades (lookinname) ' Use sub routine get_blades
Option Explicit Public Const ARK As String = "Inddata-ARK" Public Const VVS As String = "Inddata-VVS" Public Const KON As String = "Inddata-KON" Public Const EL As String = "Inddata-EL" Public Const LD As String = "Inddata-LD" Public Const KØL As String = "Inddata-KØL" Public Const OpDat As String = "Opdatering"
And then macro's under it... So the aboce is in module "INIT_S". Now in another module "RUN_P" I have a sub-rutine that uses these constants with a select case. Likes this:
Sub OpEksInitNu() Select Case ActiveSheet. Name Case ARK With OpEks 'more stuff Case VVS 'more stuff Case KON 'more stuff End Sub
But when I try to run OpEksInitNu i comes with ambigious name with ARK as the error, later down I use another public constant. But i keep getting the ambigious name error.. What could cause that... I have tried to locate all ARK, VVS etc. to try to determine if it is used later on, but it's not! I only declare the constants one time, and no module is called ARK, VVS etc.

I am trying to run create a simple macro that copies and paste special values - something I have done 100's of times but for some reason I keep getting an error message - even though I recorded the macro and didnt write it by hand - see below:
Sub Macro6() Cells.Select selection.Copy selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _ :=False, Transpose:=False End Sub
For which I get 'Compile Error - Expected Function or Variable'
I have some code that, although works fine in Excel 2003, does not in Excel 1997. I receive this error when I try running it:
COMPILE ERROR: NAMED ARGUMENT NOT FOUND
Sub HPVAL() Dim r As Range, myStr As String myStr = "HP" Set r = Cells. Find(What:=myStr, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _ :=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _ False, SearchFormat:=False) If Not r Is Nothing Then r = r.Value While Not r Is Nothing Set r = Cells.FindNext(r) If Not r Is Nothing Then r = r.Value End If Wend End If End Sub
It looks like Excel is getting hung up on the "SearchFormat:=" portion of the code.
I am looking for a more efficient way to write a macro (a sample from the macro is below). This is just the first part of the macro. I need to repeat these same steps (seen for row 5 below) for rows 5 to 50. My script worked until I hit row 35 and then I got the "compile error.." message. There must be a way to use "loop" to write this more efficiently, no?
I am using the following code to put a combo box in my userform. When I try to run it I get the following Compile Error: For without next. What does it mean and how do I fix it?
just make some files to make my work easier. Few too many watching the game last night, and I think im lost here. Am I attempting to do too much here ? I ran the first For statement Fine, but I cant get the second to work. I dont understand where my next statement should be entered.
VBA but familiar with other programming languages.
I have looked through previous posts with the same problem and I see that most people forget to add the "endIf" before looping. From what I can tell, I have ended all of my "If" statements.
The goal of this macro is to take temporary data and finding a match in other sheets and copying from "Temp" and pasting into the other sheets (possibly in the first blank cell, depending on the case) then deleting the row and moving on to the next row and repeating the process until "Temp" is empty.
Every time I wrote something wrong I stupid and annoying pop windows appears and I have to press ok different times and be quick to correct the problem, otherwise it appears again.
I'm trying to write a macro that will insert a excel formula into a specific cell. When I try to run the macro I receive a compile/ syntax error. I don't understand why as the formula works in excel. Here is the code (formula only)
I have an application that will require I create 20+ objects from a class I have created call "cWorkCenter." This is my first project using objects in VBA. I've created a string variable called "Title." THe application will loop through a list of resources on a worksheet, assign the name of that resource to the variable called "Title" (eg. Title=Range("A1")), then create an object named whatever the string is that "Title" represents. For example, if the first item in my list is "Resource1", then the first object created should be called "Resource1"
When I do this I get the following error: Compile Error: Duplicate declaration in current scope.
Below is the part of the code giving me trouble.
VB: Public Title As String Sub Loader_OO() Title = "Resource1" [code].....
Have two worksheets in same workbook. First worksheet is "ReArrangedAddr" Which basically has a command button to click to run a "Sub" behind the second worksheet "Orig SH Register". When I click on button on first worksheet, I get error "Compile Error: Sub or Function not defined"
New to VBA and just trying to make some edits to some existing code. I have basically copied a pre-existing form and module and changed names from "Appendix" to "Drawing" as I am trying to replicate what the piece of code already produces for a table of appendices, for my drawings.
However, when I try and run the form I get Compile error: Variable not defined with lstDrawings highlighted.
[Code] ...........
Is this something that should be defined in my global module which I am missing?
I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this. I've sent out a worksheet with macros that call up userforms but when someone runs the form and tries to call up some userforms they get this error.
I've written some VB code in Excel 2003 which hides and unhides worksheets dependant upon 'Yes' or 'No' in a named range. This works Ok in Excel 2003, however if I try and use it in Excel 2007 it shows error 'Compile Error in Hidden Sheet'. When I debug it the error 'Compile Error - Method or Data Member Not Found' appears. The code in question is as follows:
I am trying to use the Find function within some VBA code but keep encountering a compile error. Code works fine on it's own as below but doesn't work within the VBA code. I can't figure out what part of code needs to be modified.
I sent the attached to a user who said it wouldn't run when the 'Draw Venn' button is click - some sort of RefEdit compile error. I can't replicate the error and can't find what's causing the error.
I had started using RefEdit control but couldn't get it to work the way I wanted, so just went with input boxes. I run this on XL07 SP2, other user has XL03 - not sure if that's relevant to the error they're getting.
I have Compile error coming up when I try to run Sub DeleteRecord on Sheet 2. It brings me to the VBE with sheet 1 code brought up and the Compile Error showing, with the xlup portion of the code highlighted. I okay the error and it highlights the Sub DeleteRecord on Sheet 2 with a yellow arrow.
Sheet 1 code as follows:
Dim y As Long y = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row Range("A1").AutoFill Destination:=Range("A1:A" & y), Type:=xlFillDefault Range("J1").AutoFill Destination:=Range("J1:J" & y), Type:=xlFillDefault Range("K1").AutoFill Destination:=Range("K1:K" & y), Type:=xlFillDefault Range("L1").AutoFill Destination:=Range("L1:L" & y), Type:=xlFillDefault Range("M1").AutoFill Destination:=Range("M1:M" & y), Type:=xlFillDefault Range("N1").AutoFill Destination:=Range("N1:N" & y), Type:=xlFillDefault Range("O1").AutoFill Destination:=Range("O1:O" & y), Type:=xlFillDefault Range("P1").AutoFill Destination:=Range("P1:P" & y), Type:=xlFillDefault
