Using A Defined Variable In A Formula

Mar 7, 2008

I have a macro which defines a workbook selected by the user as the name ServicingInfoFile.

The macro then proceeds to write vlookup formulas in another workbook to pull data from the ServicingInfoFile workbook.

Only problem is that the code errors out at the vlookup formulas every time.

Can I not use a Variable in a formula?

Is it just my syntax?

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=VLOOKUP(RC[-1],'" & ServicingInfoBook & "'!C1:C2,2,FALSE)"

Referencing Defined Worksheet Variable In Formula In VBA?

Oct 19, 2012

I have created a userform that once the user clicks the okay button, the information is transferred to a worksheet template named 'PO Template', copied, and renamed. That portion works great. I then have code for a summary worksheet named 'PO Log' that finds the next empty row on the log and enters a formula referencing back to the newly created 'PO Form' (note - 'PO Form' is a variable as the actual worksheet name changes with the user input). The formula on the 'PO Log' references the 'PO Form' literally, which gives me a REF! error because there is no sheet actually named that. I've tried defining POForm in the code as a string so I can enter it into the formula code but I get an error because it's already defined as a variable. I've entered the sub routine for clicking the okay button below:

Code:
Sub OkayButton_Click()
'Make PO Template Active
Sheets("PO Template").Activate

[Code]....

String Variable To Call Defined Range Variable

Nov 10, 2006

Say you define a public range variable called Inputworksheet and you set it to refer to the worksheet called Inputworksheet. You have a separate string variable with the value Inputworksheet. How do you get this string variable value to call/control the range variable Inputworksheet?

I am getting an excel worksheet value from a lookup function that corresponds to the name of a VBA range variable. Once I have this worksheet value, I would like to use the range variable that has the same name as the worksheet value.

Variable Not Defined

Jun 19, 2008

I have this structure:


Sub macro()

Dim columnSheet2 As range

With ThisWorkbook
Set valueCell = .Sheets("sheet1").range("B2")
Set timeCell = .Sheets("sheet1").range("J2")
End With

If timeCell.Text "#N/A" Then

myHour = Hour(timeCell)
myMinute = Minute(timeCell)

'#######################
If (myHour = 5) Then
If (myMinute = 0) Then
Set columnSheet2 = A65536

...

if I run it it gives me an error here


Set columnSheet2 = A65536

saying variable not defined, why?

Getting Variable Not Defined Error

Sep 23, 2013

I'm getting a Variable Not Defined error

in my workbook_open I have the following code

Code:
Dim workround As Integer
workround = 0
in one of my sheets worksheet_change I have

Code:
If workround = 0 then

when I get to this I get the Variable not defined error. I am using this to bypass some code that does not always need to be run (it slows the workbook down). So I also have another piece of code that toggles workround from 0 to 1.

I have a feeling this error has something to do with Option Explicit. But My limited understanding is obviously insufficient to know what is happening or how to fix it. As I believe that I have defined the variable within the workbook_open code.

Compile Error - Variable Not Defined

Aug 12, 2014

New to VBA and just trying to make some edits to some existing code. I have basically copied a pre-existing form and module and changed names from "Appendix" to "Drawing" as I am trying to replicate what the piece of code already produces for a table of appendices, for my drawings.

However, when I try and run the form I get Compile error: Variable not defined with lstDrawings highlighted.

[Code] ...........

Is this something that should be defined in my global module which I am missing?

Compile Error - Variable Not Defined

Jan 21, 2012

The following code has been used previously to enter data from a userform to a worksheet without a problem. However, since I added some new bits of code I am getting a compile error with the message variable not defined.

Here is part of what I have so far and the bit that is highlighted after the error comes up is the 'Set ws' line;

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Worksheets("Duties").Range("C5") = txtdate
Worksheets("Duties").Range("H5") = txtarea
Worksheets("Duties").Range("N5") = txttea
Set ws = Worksheets("Duties")
'find first empty row in database
iRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 1) _
.End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row

The code I have recently added:

Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Set wsRes = Worksheets("Resources")
With wsRes
.Range("B1", .Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).AdvancedFilter xlFilterCopy, , .Range("L1"), True
With .Range("L2", .Range("L" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
cboTeam.List = .Value
.EntireColumn.Clear

VBA With Compile Error: Variable Not Defined

May 27, 2008

I've used Excel for many years, but finally am learning VBA, using Excel Progamming for Dummies by John Walkenbach. Excel is version 2000.

I've searched extensively on Google and on the MrExcel site for the solution to my problem, but still haven't found it . Any direction would be most appreciated.

I'm trying to execute the examples in the book, and have gotten the error message "Compile error: Variable not defined" with "MyString =" highlighted with several of the examples. Could someone please tell me where I'm going astray?

Following is the latest subroutine I typed into the module, from page 124:

Option Explicit

Sub GetLength()
MyString = "Hello World"
StringLength = Len(MyString)
MsgBox StringLength
End Sub

Getting A Compile Error Variable Not Defined

Jan 13, 2010

It works as a regular Module but when I put it into a "Private Sub" for a button its not working.

Basically I have a master sheet that I create Tests from. I push a button and it creates a Test for others to take. I want the macro to transfer from the Master to these so when they are done I can press a button and upload the answers to a tracking sheet.

It errors on the strSecondFile

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim wbk As Workbook
Dim NAME As String

'strFirstFile = ActiveWorkbook
strSecondFile = Application.GetOpenFilename
Set wbk = ActiveWorkbook 'Workbooks.Open(strFirstFile)
NAME = Range("A6").Value

Compile Error: Variable Not Defined

Jul 18, 2006

I came across a weird situation using a standard print macro. One of my users could not use the print macro due to a compile error. The row that was highlighted was

.PrintErrors = xlPrintErrorsDisplayed

the error states that the variable is not defined. I removed that line of code and everything prints fine.

I tested this code out on excel 97 and it worked; is this sensitive to OS version? Will leaving this line of code effect anything big?

Hide Column Defined By Variable

Jan 4, 2008

Using VBA the code creates a string variable containing multiple column references. I need to select the column references stored in the variable, then hide them. I know I can hide the columns individually but would like to use a variable.

Sub ColumnHide()
e.g. "B:B,F:F"etc.
For ColTest = 1 To 26
If Cells(1, ColTest) = 1 Then
counter = counter + 1
If counter > 1 Then
HideString = HideString & ","
End If

HideString = HideString + Chr(ColTest + 64) & ":" & Chr(ColTest + 64)
End If

Next ColTest
Columns(HideString).Select ' *** !!! ERROR IN VAR REF !!!
Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = True
End Sub

User Defined Function With Variable Inputs

Nov 16, 2007

I want to build something like this....

function getdb(a,b,c,d,e,f........x)
getdb = a & "," & b & "," & c &....& x
end function

where x is the total number of variables.

So if in excel, I run getdb (a,b) that it will know that the funciton has only 2 variables but if i run getdb(a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j) that it knows.

I am trying to avoid getdb(a,b,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,) as I bet the user will not know how many ","s to use

Clearing A Variable Of User Defined Type

Nov 3, 2004

I am currently working in an application in which I use the following user defined types:

Public Type correlationstruct
corr As Variant
corrstd As Variant
lower As Variant
upper As Variant
support As Variant
End Type

I have a public variable called myctafund, of type ctafund:

Public myctafund As ctafund

My problem is the following: When I need to update myctafund, I first want to clean it entirely before putting new values, so as to be sure older values do not stick around (I do not necessarily overwrite all the values of the mycta type).I can't figure out a way of clearing the entire myctafund variable in one shot. I tried:

myctafund=empty

but I am granted by a nasty excel error. I'd like to avoid writing 200 lines of code just to clean the entire variable.

Macro To Find Variable User Defined Cell In Worksheet

Nov 7, 2013

I have a worksheet named "ABC". In row 4 of this worksheet, each cell from G to BG is numbered from 1 onwards and each cell has a unique number. I would like to have a macro ask the user through a pop-up question box which column data should be calculated in. For example, if the user types "1" in the question box, the macro will go to column G which has "1" in cell G4 and will select G5 the cell just below the column the user defined and calculate the formula.

Call movedata(6, rrow, ecol, erow)

the first time font.bold is set to true, it completes w/o error. The bolded line returns 'application defined or object defined error 1004'. Ive tried activating the new sheet immediately before setting bold (like the first time it gets set) but it still errors.
