Dir Function - Invalid Procedure Call Or Argument

Jun 25, 2013

When I step-through my code below, it always opens the first file in the directory "C:Pyramid Files", but when it comes back to the Pyramid Files sub after fully processing the first file via various other subs, the VB Editor apparently doesn't like something about this line: StrFile = Dir(), since it quits after "snapping-back" to the previous sub Initialize(). I have also tried StrFile = Dir, but that doesn't work either. I did Dim Strfile in the General Declarations. When I set Watches for Dir and Dir(), I get the value "Invalid procedure call or argument" for both, as if the directory function lost the value. I can't determine why this is happening.

VB:
Dim WSM As Worksheet, WSB As Worksheet, WS1 As Worksheet, [U]StrFile As String[/U], StrDirectory As String, ClientCode As String
Dim Filename As String, LastRowb As Long, LastColB As Integer, LastRow1 As Integer, NextRowC As Integer, x As Integer, y As Integer

Invalid Procedure Call Or Argument On Second Run

Jan 10, 2007

I have some VBA that appears to work perfectly on the first run, but I get the following error if I run it again or any alternate runs;

Title: Error (App_WorkbookBeforeClose)
Number: 5
Message: Invalid procedure call or argument

The only way my code currently works is if Excel has just been launched. The VBA creates, saves and modify's files so I imagine it has something to do with the ThisWorkbook object when a file is being saved or closed. I have googled the error but didn't really get anywhere as it is pretty generic and seems to be returned for a number of Excel products.

Invalid Procedure Call Or Argument Referencing Files

Nov 6, 2006

I am using a procedure to loop through all files in a folder and am encountering an

Invalid procedure call or argument, error on the ChDrive line:

mypath = "\Eo1
_iSurveysNALCReturns"
ChDrive mypath

Is it something to do with the mypath syntax? Recently our drives have been reorganised. I used to just use "G:Surveys..." which always worked. Does anyone have any thoughts? I hope I've explained properly - you can probably tell I don't know much about this sort of thing.

Invalid Procedure Call Using ASC

Jan 27, 2008

I am getting an invalid procedure call when the portion of the code that has the ASC function runs. The only change I made to the workbook was to increase the available rows that this macro is totaling from 150 to 300. If I don't increase the rows I do not get the error.

What this code is doing is grouping information from 20 different sheets and totaling them and placing the total in the correct group. Most of the totals will begin with a number, however there will be a small amount that will begin with a letter. The items with letters need to be grouped in the 17000 category.

Dim c As Range
Dim rng As Range
Set rng = Range(Cells(3, "R"), Cells(lastrow, "R"))
For Each c In rng

If c < 20 Then c.Offset(0, 1) = "01000"
If (c > 19) * (c < 26) Then c.Offset(0, 1) = "02000"
If (c > 25) * (c < 161) Then c.Offset(0, 1) = "02600"
If c > 159 Then c.Offset(0, 1) = WorksheetFunction.Text(c, "000") & "00"
If Asc(Left(c, 1)) > 58 Then c.Offset(0, 1) = "17000"
If c > 170 Then c.Offset(0, 1) = "18000"
Next c

Run-time Error '5' Invalid Procedure Call (CommandBars)

Nov 13, 2009

I create and load a commandbar, prior to loading it I attempt to check if it exists, then delete it, and recreate.

I dont understand why this seemed to work for months and now creates an error.
It appears that every now and then the created commandbar is not created when I open a file. Thats when the error pops up. I can manually run the Create_Bar sub and it will be fine, for a while.

Run-time error '5':
Invalid procedure call or argument

This section is in my personal.xls file in "ThisWorkBook" of personal.xls.

Combo Box Additem - Run-time Error - Invalid Argument

Nov 28, 2008

I've written an Excel (using 2007, compatibility mode to 2003) app for our stock control. Basically it's a protected stock sheet which the user adds/removes stock via a form.

When the user runs the form the following code loops through the stock list header adding item names to a combo box. Problem is I get a run-time error if there's more than 60+ items but while the error always occurs, it happens at different places in additems.

Run-time error '-2147024809 (80070057)
Invalid argument.

In the code I've allowed a loop to 1000 items but in reality they'll be no more than 150.

Call Macro With An Argument

May 7, 2007

i want to create a lot of buttons, one in each line, that, when you click on them, open a file. The filename is in a cell in the same row as the button.

Of course every button should open a different file, and that is the problem. As far as i know (not very much) the buttons can only call other subs, and not with an argument.

What should i put into the "onAction" property of each button, so that each button opens a different file? I really dont want to create hundreds of subs just to get this done, there must be another way.

PS: By the way, how can i delete all but one buttons of a sheet with a vba script? Or shall I open another post for that?

Call Procedure From Add-in

Nov 27, 2007

I have a userform in an add-in (which is loaded), when I try and call it from an excel sheet, I get the following error "Variable not defined"

Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()

UserForm1.Show

End Sub

The code in the userform is all private subs.

Similarly when calling a public sub from the add-in such as;

Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()

Call SillySub

End Sub

I get the error "Sub or Function not defined".

How should I be doing this?

I have 46 drop downs that I need to call from a main sub. I want to create one loop that will call each one to perform its function. Below is a simple example of what I am trying to do, but where I need help is with the 'Call Y' line.

Sub testitout()
Dim y As String

For X = 1 To 2
Sheets(" Lookup"). Range("E3").Value = X + 4
y = "dropdown" & X & "_change()" 'this will return "dropdown1_change()" for the first loop

Call Procedure And Pass Range Info

Mar 22, 2007

Have a spreadsheet for creating employee schedules (any number of employees, 3 rows per employee, 5 columns for each day). I want to move all employees' info for one day (5 columns and XX rows) to another area and then clear the employees' data for that day. I have the code working for Monday but I don't want to duplicate it 6 more times for Tue -Sun. I have set up named ranges (i.e. MonFT, TueFT, etc.

I would like to call one subprocedure to do this and pass parameters for each day so the ranges can be changed to reflect the desired day?

I am doing this for holidays; i.e. if there is a Wed. holiday, store all of Wednesday's data and clear Wed. Then restore all Wed data when preparing the schedule for the following week.

Lookup Function Call: Vlookup Call In Sheet

May 21, 2006

I have a work book with 3 sheets. Sheet 1 is the main sheet and sheets 2 and 3 will use (I hope vlookup) to update 3 columns from info in sheet 1. my attempt at a vlookup call in sheet 2 is: =VLOOKUP($b3,[master_AoJ_2.xls]Sheet1!$B$3;$B$65,false)

my understanding is that: - $b3 is the cell in sheet 2 that will be updated as a result of the vlookup call. - [master_AoJ_2.xls]Sheet1!$B$3;$B$65 refers to range $B$3:$B$65 on sheet1 of master_AoJ_2. it does not work... infact I get nothing at all. when I type the call into cell $b3 of sheet2 excel thinks it is stariaght text. this is how I coded the function call =VLOOKUP($b3,[master_AoJ_2.xls]Sheet1!$B$3;$B$65,false)
