Paste Method Error Riddle
Jul 27, 2009
The procedure below worked quite happily for two months. Now it (usually, but frustratingly not always) fails, with the following error on the asterixed line:
Paste Method of Worksheet Class Failed
If anyone has the inclination, please could you put me out of my misery and suggest what is going wrong, as I have been trying on and off for two weeks to rectify this. What disheartens me is, as I say, I have had no problems with this procedure up until a couple of weeks ago. It takes the ordering info for a particular day and pastes it into the correct day's sheet on the invoicing spreadsheet. Sometimes, when I re-run the procedure it then works......???
Sub Transfer_To_Invoicing()
Dim answer As Variant, active_workbook As Variant
day_num = Range("a127").Value
answer = MsgBox("Do you want to transfer " & Weekday(day_num) & "'s figures to the INVOICING SYSTEM now?", vbYesNo)
If answer vbYes Then Exit Sub
answer = MsgBox("Have you updated the values from the despatch sheets?", vbYesNo)
If answer vbYes Then Exit Sub
Range("a1:dj129").Copy
active_workbook = ActiveWindow.Caption
For Each w In Workbooks.............

Very new to VBA and having trouble with a simple macro running in 2003 that copies and pasts to another worksheet. Code as follows:
Private Sub CopyResults_Click()
'Select the filtered data and copy it
Range("A23").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.Copy
Range("F19").Select
' Open the template and copy in the data
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:Athens Verification DataTemplatesVerification Template.xls"
Workbooks("Verification Template.xls").Activate
ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub
When I run CopyResults, the sheet is opened and the data copied correctly, but I get a runtime error 1004 past method of worksheet class failed, with the line 'ActiveSheet.Paste' highlighted. Don't get this when I run the same macro in 2000.

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'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 UserForm (and associated code) to locate a specific entry in Column 'A' of a spreadsheet and insert a date, initials, and hyperlink to another file.
The basic code works fine, but did not account for the user entering a Job# that was not in the system, so I added an If/Else to account for this...
The additional code took the If (Job# not found) route every time...
Following many hours of searching this site and variations of the error handling code, I still can not get it to work.
So I'm asking for your assistance to point out why the error handling (based on other successful code found here) is not working for me.
'Insert Link
Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()
If TextBox1.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Insert a Job#"
Exit Sub
ElseIf TextBox2.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Insert Quoters Initials"
Exit Sub
ElseIf TextBox3.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Insert Quote Date"
Exit Sub
The 'Find' part of the code is working, as the correct cell is selected after running the code... but it gives the error message, instead of executing the rest of the code...
If I remove the 'On Error Resume Next', it stops on the find block, where on inspection FindR = Nothing.
So if FindR does = Nothing, how did it manage to select the cell?

Asking for a row value to be returned if a string is found to exist in the sheet. Works great if it finds the value but I get the following error when the string isn't found:
Run Time Error '91':
Object Variable or With block variable not set.
Concept code follows. The commented strOCNumOF line contains the value that's found on the sheet. The uncommented line contains a value not found.
Sub find_test1()
Dim intFoundOnCur As Integer
Dim strOCNumOF As String
strOCNumOF = "AP4506"
'strOCNumOF = "BP6020"
intFoundOnCur = ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet. Cells.Find(What:=strOCNumOF, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, SearchOrder:=xlByRows).Row

I have an application I just built last week that seemed to be working fine. It's purpose is simple. It allows the user to select multiple .rtf files from a network drive, and then it loops through them, opens them up one at a time, copies the entire contents into a "temp" sheet in the excel workbook, then copies certain data from the temp tab to the next two columns in the main "data" tab of the worksheet, deletes the temp sheet, and then repeats the process for each selected .rtf file. Finally , it does some formatting of the "data" tab. All in all, it works quite well. Or at least, it DID.
VB:
Sub CopyRTFDocToTemp()
Dim WordApp As Object
Set WordApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
With WordApp
[Code] .....
As of last night, we started getting various errors.
"Run-time error '1004': Paste Method of Worksheet class failed" error messages occasionally. The frequency seems to have increased.
We were also getting an error message that reads "Microsoft Excel is waiting for another application to complete an OLE action" error messages.
Then when I stepped through the code, I was getting an error message that read [filename I'm trying to open] "is locked for editing by" [me]. "Do you want to Open a Read Only copy, Create a local copy and merge your changes later, or Receive notification when the original copy is available"
I suspected two issues
1. The macro is not successfully opening the source file before it tries to copy it, so there is nothing to paste into Excel
2. The word file was not closed the LAST time I ran the app, so the file is getting stuck open, and I have no way to manually close it.
Finally, I rebooted the PC, and added code (activedocument.close) to close the word app after copying the contents of the rtf file
VB:
Sub CopyRTFDocToTemp()
Dim WordApp As Object
Set WordApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
With WordApp
[Code] ....
I'm considering adding a wait loop to ensure that the app has actually opened a copy of the rtf file, so it has something to copy, but I'm unsure what variable to check with that loop.

I try to copy some cells from one workbook to another but keep getting the error message "paste method o range class failed."
I tried different ways to paste, such as
range("D157").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
or
range("D157","D330).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
and got the same result.

If Dir(sourcePath & Format(voucherDate - 1, "dd/mm/yyyy") & ".xlsm") "" Then

The error is:
Method 'Range' of object '_Global' failed
Line it fails on:
Set r = Range("myRange")
Sub LearnCells()
Dim r As Range
Dim n As Long
Set r = Range("myRange")
For n = 1 To r.Rows.Count
If r.Cells(n, 1) = r.Cells(n + 1, 1) Then
MsgBox "Duplicate data in " & r.Cells(n + 1, 1).Address
End If
Next n
End Sub
Questions:
1) 1st Dim statement, is this valid? I still get a little unsure- in the data type lists in the help file, the list file does not list things like Workbook, Worksheet Range.
2) Why is the error ocurring?

I am having trouble with a macro that is giving me the error Run-Time error 1004 (Paste Method of Worksheet Class Failed)
The code is

The macro is timing out on the ActiveSheet.Paste entry...The funny thing is that a number of us can get the macro to work and several of us are getting this error...I am thinking that it is a setting in excel that is causing this...

I encounter a runtime error '1004' if the "Invoices" sheet is not selected when I run this procedure. The last line of the code is one which is highlighted when I debug.
Sub ProcessData()
Dim aiOldRows() As Integer, aiNewRows() As Integer ' Arrays of new/old rows
Dim rngRaw As Range 'Data entry area
Dim rngInvoices As Range 'Invoices range
Dim rngOpenPoint As Range 'Top-left corner of data entry area
Set rngOpenPoint = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Data Entry").Range("a3")
Set rngRaw = Range(rngOpenPoint, rngOpenPoint.End(xlDown).End(xlToRight))
FindNew aiOldRows, aiNewRows, rngRaw
InvoiceSequence aiOldRows, rngRaw
Set rngInvoices = Range(ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Invoices").Range("A2"), _
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Invoices").Range("A3").End(xlDown).End(xlToRight))
rngInvoices.Sort Key1:=Range("M2"), Order1:=xlAscending
End Sub
You'll notice that there are two other procedures (FindNew & InvoiceSequence) being called by this procedure. I don't think those have anything to do with the error, but I can provide the code for those if needed. Oh, and one other secondary question. To declare the ranges rngRaw & rngInvoices I pick the top-left cell of the data and then do:.....................

I have the following code written:
If InStr( Cells(i, 3).Value, "Other") > 0 Then _
Cells(i, 3).Replace What:="Other", Replacement:=Cells(i, 4).Value
This seems to work fine for the most part. However, if the value in Cells(i, 4) is too long, I seem to get a Run-time error '13': Type mismatch. Is there any way to rework this code so it can replace even if the string in Cells(i, 4).Value is too long?

I have searched the Forum for help on this error 91 but still cannot figure this out.
Below is a format macro I created. I have several ' Find' routines in here and at the beginning of each one I give it an 'On Error GoTo' type statement. This seems to work fine until it gets to a second error. I have moved various 'Find' routines around and it doesn't matter which order they are in, if there are two things it can't find, it gives the error 91 on the second.
Sub Format_SFDC_Detail_Reports()
'
' Macro to format salesforce.com reports with details. rguest

On Error Goto errorhandler
Msg = "Do you want to format this report for Landscape (Yes) or Portrait (No)?"
Style = vbYesNoCancel + vbQuestion + vbDefaultButton1 + vbSystemModal
Title = "Format Report as Landscape?"
response = MsgBox(Msg, Style, Title)
If response = vbCancel Then
'Exit the routine
Goto last_line:
End If
If response = vbYes Then
format_style = "Landscape"
End If
If response = vbNo Then
format_style = "Portrait"

I have error trapping in place so if a find in a column returns no data the procedure continues, but the code breaks there anyway.
In Tools/Options/General/Error Trapping I have Break on Unhandled Errors checked.
I have changed my error trapping lables.
I have copied the procedure and renamed it.

My spreadsheet has a grouped graphic that I need to repeat in a variable number of rows. I wrote a macro that copies the grouped graphic from above and pastes and positions it in the newly inserted row.
It works great when I use F8 to step thru, but if I try to actually run the macro, I get an "Paste Method of worksheet class failed." error.
Sub InsertEmployees()
Range("B18").Select
Selection.EntireRow.Copy
Selection.EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlDown

I am working on a file which is a log of all the requests we send out to our vendors. We regularly need to re-send these requests to remind them they haven't responded yet, so I am working on a macro which takes the info from the log and re-populates the request form so everything doesn't have to be re-typed every time. I've added a MsgBox as a double-check to force people to confirm they want to re-send the request.
My problem is that if you hit "No" on the MsgBox, then try to run the code again, it gives me a Run-time Error 1004 saying "Paste method of Worksheet class failed". Can someone look at my code and see if you can tell me why it works the first time but not the second?
Sub RegenerateRequest()
If ActiveCell.Column = 1 And ActiveCell.Row > 7 Then
Application.Run "LogUnprotect"
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Copy
Sheets("Regenerate Request").Activate
Application.Run "RegenFormUnprotect"
Range("A40").Select
