Method To Select Cells For Further Analysis
Aug 9, 2007
I have a worksheet with a title in cell A1, followed by some range of numbers in the same column. I was wondering if anyone can suggest an easy method for selecting various numbers? What I originally thought would be easy was to put check boxes in the adjacent column of the numbers, allowing the user to select specific cells at will. This has turned out to be a nightmare and far too difficult for me.
I attached a sheet with the code I was originally working on, but I totally messed it up and it wipes out my data, but anyone cares to look it over, it's attached. So I humbly ask, how does everyone else do it? What is the norm for allowing a user to select multiple numbers at a time simply using a click from the mouse? How does one wright the code so that the selected values can be manipulated in further code?

I'm using an inputbox to let the user select a range of cells. Here's the line
Set MyRange = Application.InputBox("Select cells with numeric data", Type:=8)
When the inputbox comes up, it won't let the user click any cells (or anywhere in the worksheet, for that matter). The cell/range reference has to be typed in manually.

I have created a spreadsheet that is 38mb and needed to size it down. I recorded the following macro to do this. This essentialy jut copies the top line of the relevant columns on each page and then copies the formulas down, calculates, and then pastes just the values of these calculations, thereby reducing the sheet to a third of its size. The macro works if I run it from the macro option on the toolbar, but when I assign it to a command button I keep getting ' select method

When the public routine ChangeColours is called from a Command button called ButtonX on SheetX it works fine. But a command button called ButtonY on SheetY cannot run it. When ButtonY is clicked, the error is at the line :
Sheets("SheetX").Cells(4,5).Select
Where it says that "Select Method of Range class failed"
Private Sub ButtonX_Click()
Call ChangeColours(0)
End Sub
Private Sub ButtonY_Click()
Call ChangeColours(0)
End Sub...............

Using InputBox Method to Select Range from Other Sheets
I need to select a range of cells from a second workbook via a InputBox or similar.
I'm trying to do that with the following
Sub InputBoxTest()
Dim MySelection As Range
Set MySelection = Application.InputBox(prompt:="Select a range of cells", Type:=8)
MySelection.Select
End Sub
But I can't select a cell range if it is located in other workbook.

I have a macro that opens a specified woorkbook that changes every month. There are formulas which are pasted to range I1 of the new workbook to calculate the totals on this sheet. Everytime i run the code though, I get an error that says "Select method of range class failed" and Range("I1").Select is apparently the error.

I m trying to use some simple macro recording for a command button click. I keep getting the "Select method of range class failed" error from the following code.
From reading the forum it seems to be a common mistake by newbies, couldnt work it out for myself though...my command button is located on a different sheet to where the select function must work...from the code you can see that there are around 20 sheets that need to be used from the one command button...
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Sheets("Treviso").Activate
Range("G21:T21").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("G39:T39").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("G61:T61").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("G77:T77").Select
Selection.ClearContents.....

Why I'm getting the above error when I try to copy and sort data into a workbook?
I'm using this:
Code:
Sub GetData1()
Dim SaveDriveDir As String, MyPath As String
Dim FName As Variant
SaveDriveDir = CurDir
MyPath = Application.DefaultFilePath 'or use "C:Data"
[Code] .......
To import the data and then these lines to copy the unique records to a range:
Code:
Sheet33.Range("C1").Select
Sheet33.Range("C1:C1000").AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy,
CopyToRange:=Sheet33.Range("S1"), Unique:=True
But the above lines are highlighted when I get the error.

Macro has been working fine for ages suddenly have received this consistently?
It's not debugging to allow me to see the route of the problem.
i've googled and seen it's normally a use of select but can't see any issue in my code or understand why it would work for months and now stop.
note: also after i click Ok on the error the macro seems to continue running and data is pulled through. ...but this message comes up every time so it's questioning the reliability of the data it's pulling.

I have a userform that allows the user to view, modify or delete individual records (rows) of a worksheet in a workbook. If a particular item in a record is modified, a check occurs to ensure that the values for that item remain unique. All of that works exactly the way I need. The breakdown occurs when the records are then autosorted by a the values in a particular column. After the autosort, another column of values is copied and pasted to a different worksheet within the same workbook. For this to work properly, I must have the userform open along with the worksheet containing the records. If the userform is open with any other worksheet open, I get the following VBA error message "Run-time Error '1004' : Slect method of Range class failed". I need to be able to open the userform with any worksheet active and not experience this error when the autosort, copy/paste occurs. This is the code for the user form, the module for autosort, copy/paste and checking for unue values.
This is the sub in the worksheet with the records
'This checks for unique values
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Dim LLoop As Integer
Dim LTestLoop As Integer
Dim Lrows As Integer
Dim LRange As String
Dim LChangedValue As String
Dim LTestValue As String
Dim smessage As String
'Test first 7 rows in spreadsheet for uniqueness
Lrows = 8
LLoop = 2
'Check first 7 rows in spreadsheet
While LLoop <= Lrows.........................

My excel version is 2007 and i am on WIN7 64bit
I have a workbook with VBA which was working fine earlier. Lately i have been getting
"Runtime error 1004" Select method of button class failed.
I am adding buttons dynamically in a loop in a sheet and what surprise me is , i go to debug mode when error pops up and it points to below line
MySheet.Buttons.Add(ActiveCell.Left - 5, 25, 20).Select
but my code is running in a loop and i can see that atleast 20 buttons were added and it fails to select when it try to add this iteration. It is completely confusing me.
My entire below code is in a loop
Code:
maWrk.Cells(xIt1, yIt2).Select
mySheet.Buttons.Add(ActiveCell.Left - 5, 25, 20).Select
Selection.OnAction = "callMe"
[Code]....
I also notice that when it fails, on select method .. the button was actually added to the sheet with caption/name as "Button 65536" but then fails to select it. What makes the select to fail after adding the button? Could there be anything special with Button 65536?
Is there any better way to code the adding button and setting action and name for excel 2007?
note before entering the loop i am deleting all the shapes with myShape.Delete which name matches "btRun"
I also want to highlight that i don't have 65536 rows in my sheet. I just have 200 rows. and when this error happens it is on row 150 so firstly i wonder why it is naming the button as Button 65536. I would assume it will start with 1 and go on increments.
What makes excel to fail to select an added button in VBA?

I want the select case list of a ComboBox to be treated as a variable in order to shorten the code size. To clarify the problem, i post the code with what i want to do, but don't know how to do it that way.
Code:
Select Case ComboBox1.ListIndex
Case 0: y = "AT"
For j = 0 To 26
Case "j": y = sheets("name").Range("A(j)") 'Range A(j) is a string, so y as well, as seen in Case 0.
Next j
End Select
Is something like this possible?

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.

I have a range object representing a data set, and I want to return only the first row of data from the range. The range starts at cell A2:
21 22 23 24 25
31 32 33 34 35
41 42 43 44 45
I.e. the value 21 is the data in cell A2 (row 2, column 1) and so forth.
