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

[Code] .......

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?

Call A Sub Procedure From Another

Jun 19, 2008

how do you call another sub's function from another sub? For example:

Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

StartingDate:
Static STempHolding As String
If STempHolding <> "" Then OldStartingDate = STempHolding
STempHolding = Target.Value

EndingDate:
Static ETempHolding As String
If ETempHolding <> "" Then OldEndingDate = ETempHolding
ETempHolding = Target.Value

End Sub

If i just wanted to call the StartingDate function, from my Worksheet_Change sub how would i do that?

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

Use A Variable To Run Or Call A Procedure By Name

Sep 8, 2007

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. I am not sure what character to use to tell excel to look at what is in the value of Y, not 'Y' itself

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

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.

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.

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.

Invalid Procedure Call Or Argument Referencing Files

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

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.

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)

Calling A Function In A Procedure

Feb 2, 2010

I need to extract the filename “My Excel File” from Worksheets(“Sheet1”).Range(“A1”), whose value = C:Documents and Settingsuser1DesktopMy Excel File

I found on Chip Pearson’s site a Function TrimToChar which, using SearchFromRight and a TrimChar of “” will trim OFF the filename “My Excel File”, leaving the Path.
But, I think I could use his function to tell me the number of characters in the Path and then use that to extract the remaining characters from the total character length (Mid Function)

Problem is, I don’t have a clue how to call a Function in VBA to work on Worksheets(“Sheet1”).Range(“A1”). How do you set the InputText , TrimChar, & SearchFromRight?????

(eventually, this will be in a loop, where I extract the filename from a Dynamic Named Range (list) in Column A)

I wrote a function procedure in VBA. Pasted it into a 'VBAProject' sheet in my workbook. But when I try to call the function (by entering the name and arguments into a cell), the sheet displays "#NAME?".

What have I forgotten?

example:

Public Function TotDays( _EndDate As Date, _StartDate As Date _) As Integer
TotDays = EndDate - StartDate
End Function

cell
a5: =totdays(b2,A2)
b2: 4/1/2007

To Use A Variable In A Call Function

Aug 12, 2008

I'm playing around with the Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean) function. I have a list of people in Column D that I'd like to move data around if the user double clicks on a cell in Column D. The list is about 158 rows long, and could grow beyond that. I've gotten lazy typing:

If Intersect(Target, Range("D4") Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub
Else
{My Code Here}
End If

If Intersect(Target, Range("D5") Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub
Else
{My Code Here}
End If
Etc, Etc, Etc

What I was hoping to do is use a variable (t) to cycle through the rows and call the various functions. So what I came up with is:

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
Dim t As Integer
Dim Subtest As String
For t = 4 To 158
Subtest = "D" & t

I've created Sub D4(), Sub D5(), and Sub D6() as a test. This didn't work at all as it's looking for a Subtest(). Also, clicking on D5, D6, didn't do much either. Is there any way to make this cycle work, or should I keep typing away?

Function Call To UserForm (VBA)

Aug 23, 2006

I wanted to have that one appear whenever a certain cell in a certain sheet gets a specific value, and depending on the answer of the user the Form should set the value of some other cell. So maybe there´s a much simpler solution to this task than what I tried - and I´ll be grateful to learn about it.

Anyway I tried the code which follows below - and it works just fine when I call it from the VBE environment - but inside the UserForm it just stops in between (without any error message) when I operate it from the Excel sheet (but still succeeds with the function). I´ll be very happy if someone could solve this "miracle" for me (even IF there´s a better solution altogether). So I just provided a simple Function which does nothing but call the UserForm and is executed whenever the condition is met (some calls to MessageBoxes in between just have been added to see how far the code gets executed): Function:

Public Function Call_my_form()
Call Option_Form.Show
MsgBox "Call executed"
End Function

Call of the function: =If(E11="Go";Call_my_form();"Nothing")

The UserForm just uses two OptionButtons with code as follows (two versions to check whether one of these would be the reason - both do behave the same way):

Private Sub OptionButton1_Click()...........................

Call Add-in .xla Function From Workbook

Apr 3, 2008

I have created an Excel add-in (.xla) which contains many custom functions. This add-in is stored as read-only on a network drive. I reference it from various spreadsheets and calls to it work perfectly unless I put a call to it in the Workbook_Open event. When I make a call to a function in the add-in from a spreadsheet's Workbook_Open event, Excel crashes completely and I get the dialog that offers to recover the file and report the problem (i.e. Excel shuts down). I have no doubt that this is being caused by the call to the add-in specifically from the Workbook_Open event as removing this call solves the problem. Also, it is not related to a particular function as I have tried various ones; it is ANY call to the add-in from Workbook_Open that causes it. Is this a bug in Excel or is there something that I need to do before referencing the add-in in Workbook_Open? I have tried Application.CalculateFull and Doevents prior to making the call to the add-in and neither approach worked.
