Setting A Range Using String Variable

Jan 8, 2014

I'm having trouble setting the Range "UtilizationRange" using a variable, "CurrentRange" to store that range. I get the error "Run-Time error 1004: Method 'Range' of object'_Global' failed".The rest of my code works when I set the utilization range using the actual range for my purposes, but the problem is the range will change each month and I don't want to change it manually each time. There's a cell in the excel sheet this refers to (AG3) that holds the range value, which in this case is [N7:N75], and I would just like to return that value to the variable "CurrentRange" and set UtilizationRange equal to that.

The value is returned to CurrentRange, but it's the last line that's giving me the problem.

Sub RangeTest()Dim UtilizationRange As Range, Cell As RangeDim CurrentRange As String
CurrentRange = Range("AG3").Value MsgBox (CurrentRange)
'This returns the value [N7:N75], which is what I want
Set UtilizationRange = Range("CurrentRange")End Sub

Setting Top Value - Error 1044

Oct 9, 2009

I am using some code to amend the top value of some autoshapes on various sheets.
I am getting a 1004 error: unable to set the top value.

This is a stripped down part of the code, this still gives me exactly the same error

Dim shName As Variant
Dim shTag As Variant
Dim buttName As Variant

Sub GraphButtNew(shName, shTag)
buttName = "B_" & shTag
Sheets(shName).Shapes(buttName & "_1_1").Select
Selection.Top = Range("A52").Top
End Sub

Variables passed to this routine are:
shname = "Sheet1"
shtag = "SH1"

i have an autoshape called "B_SH1_1_1" on Sheet1 but it wont allow me to amend the top value

i have compiled a multipage using some borrowed code and some code i have written myself. most of it works, but i have a problem populating listbox2.the error is in Private subCmbFindAllJobNo_Click(). i have put h1 tags around the line of code which shows the error when i debug. this code works ok as a stand alone, so i suspect i have done something wrong in the userform initialise.

Const FirstRow As Long = 2

A Macro Setting That Would Cause A Run-time Error 1004

May 6, 2009

Is there a setting within excel that could cause a user to get a run-time error 1004? I have a workbook with a macro that adds additional sheets to the workbook when a button is clicked. The thing works fine on my machine and 3 or 4 other machines that I have had guys test it out, but I have a user that it will not work for. He is at a location about 3 hours away so I cant see exactly what he is doing, but he says after he clicks the button he gets a run-time error 1004 that says "Unable to set the PrintQuality property of the Page Setup class". I'm thinking that it is a setting within excel?

Run-Time Error Setting Worksheet Variable

Aug 30, 2007

The user is asked for one piece of information "Enter the ID Number.

What the macro should do then is go to Wks1 find the ID Number and change some cells as a result. This bit works.

Set Wks2 = Worksheets(strWks)

7 rows from the bottom.

My intention was to capture the the name of another worksheet which is held on the same row as the ID Number on Wks1 and call it strWks.

Then further down the macro set the value of Wks2 to that of strWks so that the macro will then go to that sheet and remove data from the row with the same ID Number.

I get a Time Run Error 9.

It just seems to be the bit at the bottom where I am trying to identify Wks2 using strWks.

Sub Macro01C_Auto_Resign()
Dim Wks1 As Worksheet, Wks2 As Worksheet
Dim strFind As String, rngFound As Range
Dim lngRow As Long, rngUnion As Range, strWks As String ............................

Invalid Qualifer Error -setting Variable Using Getpivotdata

Mar 22, 2007

We have a very long macro that at the end sends an email to each training coordinator. Within the body of the email, we want to autopopulate the completion status from a pivot table using getpivotdata.

We first try to set the variable but get an error: [compile error:invalid qualifier].

.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = CurrentSheet.Name & " Training Plan Status as of " & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy")

Return Contents Of 1 Cell Based On Contents Of Another Cell?

Mar 12, 2014

I thought this was a pretty simple formula but I am having difficulty creating it. I am attaching a little test spreadsheet. Sheet 1 is where the data will be entered. The Reimbursed column has a drop down choice of yes or no. The next 2 columns are the cost of registration and the cost of accommodations. On sheet 2 is where I would like the formulas. So in cell A4 I would like a formula that says if B3 on sheet 1 is Yes populate this cell with the contents of Cell C3 only, B4 of sheet 2 would then be B3 if A3 on sheet 3 is Yes and so on with the Not reinbursed if sheet 1 the Reimbursed column is no.
