I got a macro to copy and paste values onto another tab within my worksheet. I have a lot of data and currently takes about 30 seconds to calculate and paste. Not sure if its an issue with my macro or with my computer (Mac - Excel 2011).
Here is an example of my macro:
Sub SimulateWeek() If Range("AdvanceWeek").Value = "Week 1" Then Range("Week1B").Copy Sheets("Schedule - Results").Range("C2").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
[Code]....
(this continues on until 'ElseIf Range("AdvanceWeek").Value = "Week 31"....etc). So you can see I have the same code repeated 31 times.
I am running a vba code to add about 200 sheets...my code generates a sheet in one file and then pastes it in another file....after generating nad adding 38 sheets i get the error copy method of excel failed
i tried clearing the clipboard and resuming the code but that didn,t work
I have a macro that copys a worksheet a user-inputted number of times but throws an error after adding Sheet #62. The line it hangs on is:
Sheets(myTemplate).Copy After:=Sheets(i - 1)
Does anyone know if this is a problem with my code, a memory issue, or the workbook I'm using to copy? In the past when I've copied a lot of sheets in a workbook (to the same workbook), Excel sometimes won't let me add anymore but if I copy all the sheets to a new workbook it will sometimes let me add more sheets. I figured it was a problem with how Excel counts sheets.
Sub CopySheets() myTemplate = ActiveSheet.Name
'First, jump through the validation hoops Dim AddSheetQuestion As Variant
'Define the application input box question showAddSheetQuestion: AddSheetQuestion = Application.InputBox("Please enter the number of sheets you want to add," & vbCrLf & _ "or click the Cancel button to cancel the addition:", _ "How many sheets do you want to add?")
'Cancel or the X was clicked If AddSheetQuestion = False Then..................................
I'm developing a few workbooks that may at some point be distributed amongst other people. If this happens, I don't want people sharing these workbooks around, and therefore I need a way of enforcing the users to only use a workbook on a single computer.
I have come up with a method that allows a workbook to open on a single machine only, and not others, but I had to devise this method myself. I was wondering if there are other ways of doing it, possibly quicker ways than my own, or if there is something already within Excel that caters for this?
some method by which a user can insert a row that will then copy any forumulas, not their resultant value, in the row above into the new row. The best would be for a user to be able to just use Insert > Row from the toolbar and then have a macro automatically run, but I am willing to use any possible solutions.
I know that there are other posts on this subject, but I can not figure out how to make the information in them work for me. I know that I need to go to View Code in order to insert the code, but I am not clear on what to do after that in order for the code to function, even how to exactly enter the code (should I enter into General or Worksheet, into Sheet1 or ThisWorkbook, etc..). I saw someone mention something about using now() somehow to get code to automatically run or using toolbar buttons, both of which I do not understand how to do.
I'm using the Find function in VBA on a column of data, but the range is being set to Nothing if the data item I'm looking for happens to be in a row that is hidden at the time. How do I set the find to look in all rows, hidden or not? Can this be done without unhiding all the rows first?
Dim toDel(), i As Long Dim RNG As Range, Cell As Long Set RNG = Range("d2:d2500") For Cell = 1 To RNG.Cells.Count If Application.CountIf(RNG, RNG(Cell)) > 1 Then
I am getting this error when I run the following VBA script.
Sub AutoShape3_Click() Sheets("Template").Select ActiveSheet.Copy After:=Sheets(14) Duplicate.Hide wksName.Show End Sub The break mode is highlighting ActiveSheet.Copy After:=Sheets(14) as the source of the error.
I've run this code many times before with no problem. The workbook has 48 worksheets in it. It's my understanding that Excel can handle many more worksheets, so that shouldn't be a problem.
With rngData ' clear existing filter .AutoFilter ' filter on Owner col F .AutoFilter field:=6, Criteria1:=varOwner ' check for count > 1 since heading row should always be visible If .Columns(1).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).count > 1 Then .SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy rngOutput End If 'clear filter .AutoFilter End With
Set rngOutput = wksSell.Range("A1")
It fails on the line highlighted in red, and from searches on this forum and google I think I need to specify more exactly which sheet it is. something like wksdata.SpecialCells.... but this doesn't work.
I've developed an administrative package in Excel for an After School Care programme. Essentially, there are 57 Child Records. Each record is stored on its own sheet. There are four other sheets in the workbook: three hidden templates, and the front page which holds a summary of all child attendance and balances.
Up until a short time ago, invoices were created from an "Invoices.xlt" file - the program would open the file as a new book, and copy the 1st Template page out until all invoices were created. This worked fine. I've recently changed this so the Invoice template is stored within the main workbook. After I did this, we started having problems.
We can run off up to 25-35 invoices fine (32 at this stage), but eventually it hits a point where the Activesheet.Copy command fails. After this point it is impossible to copy further sheets. I CAN, however, use Insert -> Worksheet. It is only the copy function that fails.
Because it's such a strange problem, I've uploaded an example with children's names changed. It can be found on [url]
The steps to recreate the problem are simple: Open the file, select all of the children's names (from Child to Child z), and click the "Create Invoices" button at the top.
When I call the following code from my Visual Basic 6 program to an excel spreadsheet, it runs great the first time, but then fails everytime after that unless I close vb6 and reopen it.

From the current open book, I'm opening a 2nd book, then copying all worksheets from the 2nd book that meet criteria, into 1st book, (in the same order), but am getting Method 'Copy' of object '_Worksheet' failed error. What am I doing wrong? How to OVERWRITE worksheets?We'll be running the same process with new data, so also need to overwrite worksheets in 1st book.

I have a range of purchase order rows, with the formulas stored in the first row (TemplateRow) which is hidden. The users may add any number of rows to this range, depending upon the number of different products being purchased.
Code: 'Copy the template row into the first newly inserted row Rows(TemplateRow).Copy Destination:=Rows(insertionPoint) 'fill down from the inserted row down to the last new row With Rows(InsertionPoint & ":" & NumberOfInsertedRows.Rows.Hidden = False .FillDownEnd With
The problem is copying the formulas down to the new rows can take terribly long (minutes) in scenarios of thousands of products. Is there a faster method of copying down my formulas?
I've got an excel spreadsheet that has a search function on it. There is a hidden tab where all the data sits, and a visible tab with a search button where you can enter a reg of a car and it brings up details from the hidden tab.
This works perfectly when I open the excel file that is on my machine. I've put the excel file on the intranet, and to open it you click a link, and when the pop up box comes up, you click 'OPEN', and the file opens up within IE. When I try and search for a reg, I get the following error!
Run-time error '1004': Method '' of object '_Global' failed
Its really confusing because this didnt used to happen before.. so I cant see why there would be an error with the code because it used to work!
Here is my code.
Sub Button1_Click() 'Sheet module code. 'Find my data in the indicated range, on this sheet! Dim strMessage$, strTitle$, strDefault$, strShtNm$ Dim lngMyCol&, lngLabelRow& Dim varRegID As Variant Dim rngMyData As Range Dim cell As Object
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.
A , Method of Range Object "_Global" Failed , error occurred upon running the code below at the emboldened statement.
Code: Sub copytosheet2() Dim Lastrow As Long, CopyRng As Range, DestRng As Variant, i& Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate Lastrow = Worksheets("Sheet1").[A65536].End(xlUp).Row ' For i = Lastrow To 2 Step -1
[Code] ......
The goal is to loop through columns of data on sheet1 and copy values of cells B-C to the lowest rows on sheet2 column B-C.
When I run this code I get a run time error 1004, copy method of range class failed, I have an autofilter on and it is showing 5 rows, the 5 cells in column A of sheet2 gets copied to sheet1 OK but I get the error?
I have an excel sheet being used as a mini database table.Rows = records, columns = fields. I have some VBA to create a copy of base template in the workbook, then populate the new template with the data from a row/record in the db. I currently have about 100 records. After about the 57th record I recieve RT error 1004. "Copy method of worksheet class failed". I think this is becuase excel is running out of memory. My laptop has 1gig of ram, and i have closed all other apps when running the macro.
Is there a way to free up memory while the vba is running, without clearing my "for" or count position which tells the macro to create a new sheet and which row/record in the db to populate the data in the new sheet.
I am getting the following error: Run-time Error '1004': Copy method of Worksheet class failed. after adding 53 worksheets to a workbook using VBA. I found several posts concerning this error in the forum. However, I did not find any responses that address the root cause or provide a solution.
I am encountering a problem with worksheets.copy that occurs after the copy method is called a certain amount of times. My issue is similar (exactly the same?) to what is described in these threads:
- Worksheet Copy: Method 'Copy' of Object 'Worksheet' Failed - Copy Method of Worksheet Class Failed in Loop Code
In my case, after running this code 40 times, it fails.
If loc_after Is Nothing Then .COPY after:=Worksheets(sht_name_orig) 'throws error here after being called 40 times Else .COPY after:=loc_after End If
I would like this code to be able to run more than 40 times. I have read Dave's suggested solution regarding creating a worksheet template: http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/excel-wo...-templates.htm
However, in my situation the client has specifically asked that the report come as a single stand alone excel file with no add ins. In addition, I am copying several different worksheets, not just one single template that is being used over and over.
I have written code that allows a user to copy, via a button, a certain sheet any number of times. They can choose to copy that sheet 5 times and then 10 times, etc.
When the sheet tries to be copied for the 17th time, it fails with the following message: "Run-time error '1004': Method 'Copy' of object '_Worksheet' failed"
Here is the code that I have. The second line is the line that is failing.
This always fails on the 17th copy regardless of how many different combinations of copy sheets the user tries. There are several sheets before the sheet that is to be copied and I have deleted several of those to see what happens and it still fails on the 17th copy. I also have 1GB of memory, so I don't believe that memory is an issue.
The macro below is stored within worksheet "Data Lookup". When the value in B1 changes, the code is executed but fails when it comes to the paste function. I get a "Object doesn't support this property or method".
Also, it appears the copying is not occuring correctly. It is supposed to copy from the Data3 worksheet but, in fact, its copying from the Data Lookup worksheet. Does storing this macro within a worksheet prevent the macro from moving between sheets?
Sub Worksheet_Calculate() If Range("B1").Value = Range("N1").Value Then End Sheets("Data3").Select Cells(13, 6).Copy Sheets("Data Lookup").Select Cells(23, 11).Paste End Sub
I am currently using Excel 2003 to pull from 2 external spreadsheets to compile data. The first sheet (seniority list.xls) being referenced contains all of our employees (approximately 350 rows, but that can vary from 340 to 450) as well as some information (employee ID, full time or part time, etc.). The second sheet being referenced (pay.xls) contains a breakdown of all employees and their pay for a particular bi-weekly period.
What I'm looking to do is:
(1) Find out all of my current employees. I do this by referencing seniority list.xls.
(2) For each employee, find out how many hours they worked each week. I need to do this by referencing pay.xls. Unfortunately, that file works quite differently than seniority list.xls. Unlike the latter, which contains one employee number per row, pay.xls could contain as many or as few rows per employee as their schedule dictates. Each row contains things such as overtime, regular time, double time, alternate regular time, alternate OT, vacation, sick pay, etc. In total, pay.xls could contain as many as approximately 8000 rows. To determine how many hours they work, I'm using this CSE (array) formula:
(Note that the employee ID is in column A of the current sheet.)
