Method Open Of Object Workbooks Failed
Feb 9, 2010
I need some help with this error. I have some VBA code in Outlook that runs whenever a task reminder goes off. The code is supposed to open a workbook, send email based on the info in the workbook, then close the workbook and quit excel.
The task reminders are set to go off every two hours. Sometimes this will work fine for days and then randomly (as far as I can tell) I get the error: "Method Open of Object Workbooks failed". If I press Debug and then Run without changing anything at all, it works fine.
I am using Outlook 2007 and Excel 2007. The workbook is a shared workbook on a network drive.
I can post code if needed, but will have to go to that computer.
Why do I occasionally get this error when the workbook definitely exists and has the same name and path?
What does entering debug mode do that then allows the macro to run without error?

I started a new job and my new company uses Excel 2010 (64-Bit). The code below was written for use in Excel 2007. I am trying to open an XML file and simply paste the results in a spreadsheet but I am getting this error, "Method 'OpenXML' of object 'Workbooks' failed" at the "set oWX" line in the code.

I'm trying to get the Find and FindNext methods to work. Column C contains serial numbers and there's a chance that a serial number might appear more than once in the column. What I'm trying to do is get Excel to find the first occurance of the serial number, find what row it's on and then see if this matches the variable 'CurRowNo' (defined earlier in the code). If it doesn't I want it to look at the other occurances of the serial number, find what row they're on and see again if it matches CurRowNo.
The variable 'EngCount is the number of occurances of the serial number (also worked out earlier in the code). I've got the code below, but I get the error 'Method Range of Object Global Failed' on the FindNext line. I have no idea what this error means or why it's happening.

The following code below was very kindly created for me by someone approx 12 months ago and I have been using it without any problems at all.
The purpose of the code is to creates a new Menu/Title item named "Quality" on the main Excel menu bar at the top of Excel and place it between the "Windows" and "Help"
This new Quality menu then has further drop lists which i can add as suited.
Two days ago i started getting the following RunTime Error everytime i open Excel and i can not longer get the new menu "Quality" to show on my Excel menu bar.
run-time error '2147467259 (80004005)':
Method 'Add' of object 'CommandBarControls' failed ........

I have a while loop in which I'm updated information in 2 separate worksheets. I'm using the With-block statements separately to update each, but after the 30th iteration (and it's always on the 30th), the VBA code halts and get the "method 'value' of object 'range' failed" error message pointing to a line with the code as follows:
With Sheet1
.Cells(lngRow, 9).Value = intMonths
End With
where "intMonths" is an integer variable which I'm populated properly, and "lngRow" a long variable. When I debug both variables have proper data in them, and I have no idea why this is bombing.

I'm currently working on a fairly complex VBA project in Excel 2007. Basically though, I'm downloading information from a site, massaging it, creating a lot of graphs, saving them locally, deleting the chart from excel. I then save a copy of the workbook to a local file, clear the Spreadsheet, and then Do the same for information from another site.
When I had all of the code in one Module and ran it as a macro it ran flawlessly.
Now i've put the information into a Class. And am pretty much running the same process via a UserForm.
The problem I have though is that at any point after I execute the (and please assume that all variables have been declared, because they have)

I can't seem to figure out why this keeps giving me that error...
I've checked the row and column values inside and they seem to be ok. blank_ee() is an array of strings.

item = InputBox("Please Select Row Number of Child to be Removed")
myString1 = Range("$a" & item & ":$c" & item, "$e" & item & ":$j" & item).Select
I copied this code from a prior worksheet and the range was not split (i.e. just "$a" & item & ":$c" & item). When I try to make the range selection grab two separate areas, I get the above listed error. Do I not have the quotations right? I have tried them several different ways. Not sure what else to try.

I am having a problem with this bit of code. When I try to run it it shows Method Range of object Worksheet Failed.
The original code I adapted this from works just fine, and the only thing I have changed is the ranges and the sheet.
The code is:
Sub Filter()
With Sheet18
'
.Range("DisbData").AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterInPlace, _
CriteriaRange:=.Range("Criteria"), Unique:=False
.Range("DisbData").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy Destination:="DisbPaste"
.ShowAllData
End With
End Sub
The line that the debugger is showing has issues is:
.Range("DisbData").AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterInPlace, _
CriteriaRange:=.Range("Criteria"), Unique:=False

I start in my "Action Plan for For Single Market" worksheet and if I click on the Command Button I then want to read in a couple of variables, and jump to a second worksheet (called "Market Action Plans") where I then want to copy a range, and then paste it in another area in that same sheet.
I thought I had worked out what to do, but when I execute I get a "run-time error 1004" when the macro gets to the "Range("Updated_Results").Copy" line. Excel describes the error as "Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed'" - which might as well be a foreign language as far as I am concerned!
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Current_Market_Row = Range("Current_Market_Row")
First_Col_Action_Desc = Range("First_Col_Action_Desc")
Sheets("Market Action Plans").Select
Range("Updated_Results").Copy
Cells(Current_Market_Row, First_Col_Action_Desc).Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
Sheets("Action Plan for Single Market").Select
End Sub
I am an occasional macro-creator and every now and again, I come across this type of problem where I can't get variables to be reconized, etc. I think it's because I don't understand enough about Private versus Public, and how to declare variables.

Error 1004 on the 5th "With Selection" Chunk, .LineStyle part.
What I did is recorded the formatting I wanted on a selected region, then changed the major references to the defined region in my code called rngATotals.
At first I got errors with the "Select" method of the "Range" class with my rngATotals line (the first one). But then I clarified public variables and now its in the formatting chunk that was recorded.
I've tried:
--Changing security/protection settings
--Clarifying my rngATotals references
--Making the sheet containing rngATotals visible (still in my code snippet)
--And not using rngATotals to define my range but more specific, clunky references like Range ("A3":"B7") or Range(Cells...,Cells...) or Range ("RAnge'sName")
What further could I clarify? And why does it have a problem with the 5th borders/linestyle reference and not the previous ones?
I hate to have to ask another question about this error because there are so many...
Is there anything beyond what I've tried that is a usual way to approach this problem?
Anyway heres the

The error-text is:

It happens at:

The code:
Code:

Dim i, j, Index As Integer
Forfra:
For i = -1 To 1000
If Sheets("Pipeline").Cells(3 + i, 20) = "Ja" Or Sheets("Pipeline").Cells(3 + i, 20) = "ja" Then
[Code] ......
I get the error message "Method 'Delete' of object 'Range' failed" at the line "Sheets("Pipeline").Cells(3 + i, 18).EntireRow.Delete".
The sub has previously worked perfectly fine.

I have a cet of CommandButtons on sheet 1. The code for these buttons is in the code section of the sheet. A named range is referenced in this code. This named range is on sheet 2. Every time I try to reference this or any named range (from any other sheet), I get this "Run-time error '1004': Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed"
The last time I had this error I was able to fix it by moving the code to Module1. I tried that here, but it did not work (I can't figure out how to call it from the sheet). CommandButton. Here is the code from the sheet for one of the buttons:
Private Sub TBEnterUp_Click()
iLast = Range("WBDate_DayLast").Value '<<<<<<<
iItem = TBEnter.Value
If iItem = iLast Then
TBEnterUp.Visible = False
Exit Sub
End If
TBEnter.Value = iItem + 1
If iItem > 0 Then TBEnterDown.Visible = True
End Sub
It is a simple number advancer. It is working in the UserForm I took it from. I have included a sample file of the problem. Feel free to look at it and borrow anything in it that you might like.

I am trying to build a macro which will format the columns of a spreadsheet - basically it inserts some columns, writes formulas and highlights them. Here is a code I have got so far...
When I try to run this I get a run time error 1004 - Method 'Range' of 'Object'_Global' failed. The part of the code
Range("N2:N").FormulaR1C1 = "=(RC[-7]/RC[-2])"
is highlighted in the debugger.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening, also it would be great if you could suggest better ways of writing this code - as I am new to vba programming and most of my macros are built using the recorder and then 'working' on them.

I have an interesting error that only happens when there is one row of data in the worksheet (sheet2 or "Half Payout"). Rows 1 & 2 are headers, row 3 is when the data starts - if any. With either no rows of data or more than one the coding works just fine. Here is the exact error message I'm getting: Run-time error '1004': Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed.
The following code is supposed to sort the rows of data when opened and then activate the first open cell below B2.
