Conditional Formatting W/VBA Generates Runtime Error 5?
Aug 1, 2008
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).
The procedure I am using is: ...

I delete sheet1, copy sheet3, rename to sheet1 and then attempt to rename the CodeName to Sheet1 as well.
This worked initially with out errors.
Now on the first run of the macro it generates an error:
Run-time error '32813':
Method 'name' of object '_VBComponent' failed
This fails to rename the CodeName of "Sheet1" (.Name)
Run it again and it renames the CodeName but generates yet another error:
Run-time error '-2147221080 (800401a8)':
automation error

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()

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 am using conditional formatting to highlight all cells where the value <> 0.00. It's working for 98.9% of the records, but for some reason, about 5 of the records with 0.00 are being highlighted for some reason. I've checked the field formats and they're the same as the other numbers.

I have a lot of data (regarding graffiti) in a table and all my formulas work well. But, because I sometimes make an error in two columns of data I sometimes get results that do not balance. I want to put in a conditional format (?Is there a better way?) that will highlight the error as I enter the data. Can you help please?
Using Excel 2003 (sp3) and no add ons. There are lots of identical rows, 5:400, making up a table. I will use row 10 as an example.
In column M there is a formula which may or may not give a visible result. (It's a measure of the number of days taken to clean the graffiti and will only hold a result if the job has been finished.) The result for "M10" will be a number between 0 and 5 90% of the time, but may creep up to 30. It may also leave the cell looking blank although the formula itself is still lurking out of sight.
A matching row of cells, O10:T10, have no formulas in them. I must manually enter a "w" or an "a" into ONE of these columns, depending on the graffiti location (Worthing or Adur) and property ownership (Columns for residential, commercial, council etc.)
So now the errors I need to flag up as I enter data are to ensure that M and O:T balance. There should always be a result in M if there is an entry somewhere in O:T and if there is an entry in M there must be an entry somewhere in O:T.
Sometimes I mistakenly put an entry in O:T even if there was no result in M. Sometimes there is a result in M and I fail to put an entry in O:T. I need to be alerted as this happens, if possible. It will save hours of trying to track down my data entry errors.
BUT, there is already one conditional format already in M. It highlights the cell if it goes over 5 days for cleaning. =ISNUMBER(M10)*(M10>5).
If you can help, thank you very much. I thank you, my wife thanks you for me not doing overtime trying to track down my errors, my boss's thank you for making me more efficient and other forum readers may thank you for helping them to improve their sheets.

I can set a cell to format if its own cell contains an error, but is there a way to conditional format if the next cell over contains an error? For example, turn A1 red if B1 contains an error?

Below is some code I am trying to run. What I would like to do is select a certain "data row" in the pivot, and apply some conditional formatting to that. It works just fine until I reach the .colorindex = 3 line. It says I'm getting an application/object defined. how to fix this? I'm on Excel 2007. This was fine on 2000!
pvtCurrent.PivotSelect "'% Dist'", xlDataAndLabel
With Selection
With .Interior
.ColorIndex = 36
.Pattern = xlSolid
.PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
With .FormatConditions.Add(xlCellValue, xlBetween, "0", "0.97")
With .Font
.Bold = True
.ColorIndex = 3
End With
End With
End With

I was wondering it were possible to reference an error. I'd like a cell to have white text if $O19 produces a #N/A error. I tried formula
=($O19=#N/A)
and the formula
=($O19="#N/A")

The code thats generating the error is the following:
For Y = 8 To 131
TmpDate = Empty
Range("A1").Value = "=" + Path + Sheet + "B" + CStr(Y)
TmpDate = Range("A1").Value
For Langd = 1 To Len(TmpDate)
TmpChar = Mid(TmpDate, Langd, 1)
If Not TmpChar = " " Then
TmpComp = TmpComp + TmpChar
End If
Next Langd
TmpDate = TmpComp
TmpComp = Empty
If Len(Dag) = 1 Then
Dag = "0" + CStr(Dag)
End If
Macro continues before the Next-statement...
(it might not be good programming, but I think it should work).
A little explanation to the code.
I have a spreadsheet located on the intranet that has values I need in my spreadsheet. These figures are sorted by date, so I search for the date to find the right figures.
The line Range("A1").Value = "=" + Path + Sheet + "B" + CStr(Y)
works prefectly. I can see the value in my spreadsheet in the cell A1. its the next line that causes the error "Type mismatch".
The value I get from the intranet spreadsheet looks similar to this:
"1 Jul 2006 " (note all the spaces).
What I do is just run it through a loop and cut of all spaces so it will look like this: "1Jul2006" to be sure I dont miss a space or anything.
Now to the funny part.
The error only happens at runtime on the first go.
If I chose to END the macro then and there, and then run it again from the top it works perfectly.
If I set a stopsign to debug the code, it works perfectly on the first go too.
Can anyone explain to me why that happens??
I know enough about programming to handle my syntax errors and so on, but I cant see anything wrong in this one...
Please note that this isnt the the entire code.
I'm building a report on 12 diffrent spreadsheet. The main macro is almost 2000 rows of code, and it call other Subs too (because of limitations in the VBA-editor. A macro cant to be too big), so its impossible for me to post the entire macro...

if I leave the inputbox blank I get an Excel error. I.e. it says that the formula I tried to type contains an error..... Is the Type:=8 not working properly here?
Dim Addr As Range
On Error GoTo Problem
Set Addr = Application.InputBox( _
Prompt:="Enter or Select a cell in the last record", _
Title:="Select Last Record:", Default:=Selection.Address, Type:=8)
If Addr Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Edit: I guess I should mention that I am trying to retrieve a cell reference from the user via an input box. This cell reference will help me determine the last record in the spreadsheet.

In Excel 2003 I have made a model for evaluating co-workers. The model consist of a number of different questions regarding performance. At the top of the sheet, the user have to select som data from a drop down list, and depending on the answer (upward or downward), som of the questions in the sheets is hidden or shown. For this purpose I have created this string of VB-code in the sheet:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$E$5" And Target.Value = "Upward" Then
Rows("20:41").EntireRow.Hidden = True
ElseIf Target.Address = "$E$5" And Target.Value = "Downward" Then
Rows("20:41").EntireRow.Hidden = False
ElseIf Target.Address = "$E$5" And Target.Value = "" Then
Rows("20:41").EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If...........

I have created a workbook for external users that allows them to track data on a monthly basis and submit to me. Each spreadsheet has a code to sort names alphabetically. Here is the
Sub Button53_Click()
Dim i
For Each i In [B10:K309]
If i.Value = 0 Then
i.Value = ""
End If
Next
ActiveSheet. Unprotect Password:="xxx"
Range("B10:AB309").Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("B10"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, _
OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 10
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll ToRight:=-5
Range("B10").Select
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="xxx", DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
End Sub
Everything works great for the majority of users, but those who are using Excel 97 return a runtime error on the following line: If i.Value = 0 Then. This code was created in Excel 2000 since that was the software our office used.

I'm getting Runtime Error 91 on this line:
destRange = Range(.Cells(destRow, 2), .Cells(destRow, 7))
Here is the overall function:
Public Sub sendRow(myRow As Integer, destinationSector As Integer)
'************************************************************
'1. Copy Row... Cols 2-7
'2. Find First Empty in new Sector
'3. Paste Row on first new Row
Dim myBounds() As Integer
Dim destRow As Integer
Dim destRange As Range
Dim cutRange As Range
Dim y As Worksheet
myBounds = getSecBounds(destinationSector)
This subroutine is being called from the Worksheet_Change event, and should therefore have an active sheet.

Everything seems to work fine until I enter the 55th picture. If it is that, is there a viable work around?

I have read the other posts on here and swapped, Dim timeinc As Interger to Dim timeinc As Long and Dim timeinc As Double but neither worked. They both make the calculation 0 and I can not figure out why. This macro has worked before and is failing only on this new dataset which I have attached as well.
I am solving this problem on a PC and the macro was built for a Mac but I do not think that should change much as when I run it on a Mac it fails the same

I have an application using two userforms. Following sequence is used:
1. Open Userform1 (with uf.show)
2. click on a commandbutton in userform1 opens a second userform on top of userform1.
3. Close userform2 with commandbutton on userform2 (userform2.hide)
(I did not want the user to close the UF via the "X" )
Runtime error 402 : Must close or hide topmost modal form first
So, I changed my code so when the user clicks the commandbutton in userform2
userform1.hide (which is the topmost)
userform2.hide
But again I get the same error.

I have a workbook with some Change Event code posted below. It executes fine 90% of the time; however, cells with dropdown lists create an issue. If I double-click one of the dropdown cells (to directly type a value), then while my cursor is in the cell, click the small arrow to display the list, a 50290 (Method Intersect of Object Global failed) error occurs and highlights the red line in my code. Any ideas what this is about and how I can avoid it? (I've also included my Selection_Change event, as that's the only other code on this sheet).
