I am having trouble with a macro for unprotecting a sheet keeping specific cells locked then clearing contents of other cells then reproect the sheet. I wrote one for one sheet which works and I have re used this but it keeps saying Unable to set the Locked property of the Range class.
View 3 RepliesThe problem is coming from the Else statement.
Code:
Sub LockByColor()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect "pc"
Dim cl As Range
For Each cl In Range("$BO$1:$BZ$45")
If cl.Interior.Color = 6299648 Then
cl.Locked = True
Else: cl.Locked = False
End If
Next cl
ActiveSheet.Protect "pc"
End Sub
Sheets("PRODUCTIVITY").Select
Range("A20").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
With Selection
.Locked = False (***debug screen is highlighting this line***)
.FormulaHidden = False
.ClearContents
End With
Range("A20").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "PASTE NEW DATA HERE"
Range("A20").Select
This worksheet was built for use of many users so this sheet is PROTECTED.
The user is instructed to copy/paste information from our internal web into the selected areas in the worksheet.
When i UNPROTECT the worksheet the VBA works fine.
The data in the worksheet spans from columns A to P, and the length (# of records) is variable.
I am using the below code to unloock certain columns based upon a value in cell a1. The value is the previosu month end date. It was working, but now I am getting " run-time error 1004 Unable to set the locked property of the range class" Can anyone help me to fix the error.
Sub UnlockMe()
Dim cl As Range
ActiveSheet. Unprotect "password"
For Each cl In Range("$B$1:$M$1")
If cl = [a1] Then
cl.EntireColumn.Locked = False
cl.EntireColumn.Interior.ColorIndex = 6
Else
cl.EntireColumn.Locked = True
cl.EntireColumn.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
End If
Next cl
ActiveSheet.Protect "password"
End Sub
I am using this code (below) to hide certain rows or columns depending on what number is entered. Everything is working fine and I am at the point where I would like to share this excel sheet with others but I would like to lock certain cells so that others cannot alter the formulas. As soon as I lock the cells and then enter values into the unlocked cells, I get the "run-time error '1004': Unable to set the Hidden property of the Range class".
I am using excel 2010 x64.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B3")) Is Nothing Then
If Range("B3").Value = 0 Then
Columns("G:P").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
Else
If Range("B3").Value = 1 Then
Columns("H:P").EntireColumn.Hidden = True

Having problems with trying to get my vba code to access the SpecialCells property. Receiving the following error.... Unable to get the SpecialCells property of the Range class. The section of my code is below that is causing the error. Keeps stopping on the "Selection.SpecialCells(xlsCellTypeVisible).Select" line.
Sheets(" Book Query").Range("A6:I6").Select

I have a sub that I have copied out of a previous workbook where it still works fine. In the previous workbook it was assigned to a button. Now I am trying just to do it as an automatic action when the workbook is closed
It will lock any cell within the specified range that is not blank then protect the worksheet, save the workbook then save a dated archive copy
When I pasted it in to a new workbook I changed the range to A1:AP49 and strFileName
Now when I run it now I get an Error 1004 - Unable to set the Locked property of the Range class.
On Debug this line is highlighted:-
c.Locked = c.Value ""
The full code is:-

I've noticed error 1004 is very broad and switches its name depending on what you're working with. But I have no idea what it means.
This is the line w/ probs:
Sheeti.Cells(y, 2).Value = WorksheetFunction.DGet(InventoryRange, 3, CriteriaRange)
I looked at protection and Macro security and checked my definitions (that work in other contexts).
Does DGET need to have criteria and database in the same worksheet? My project is working between two workbooks.
I use Excel 2010 andexample.xlsx cannot make my code working because of the so famous errore above.
I have several pivot tables (pt) in different worksheets (ws), and a list of items stored in an array I created. I've written a macro for setting ON all items in pt except those ones in the array (listOffnet within the code). Everything works properly.
Now, I would like to do the complementary action: setting OFF all items that are not in the array. Unfortunately, I get the error at line:

I am getting the following error when i am clicking a Button on sheet1 which is generating duplicate of sheet1.I am trying to delete the button when duplicate is created..Error is:" run-time error '1004' Unable to get the buttons property of the worksheet class" at this line in code"ActiveSheet.Buttons("CmdHistory").Delete"
View 2 Replies View RelatedI locked the cells on Sheet1 from B4 to B10.
I protect the Sheet1 Review > protect sheet and selected two checkboxes from protect sheet property "Select locked Cell" and "Select unlocked cells".
It is working fine and it does not allow the user to view the locked cells B17:B24 while protection is on.
I have a RadioButton1 on the same Sheet1 and i put the following code behind the button to hide the 4 up to 10 rows. When i will press the button while password protection is on; it is giving me the following error:
Unable to set the Hidden property of the Range class.
I keep getting that error when I'm running my macro. When I debug, it points me to the bolded line in the code below. The larger macro I'm running this function in runs this function some 101 times without error before this happens.
The values of the parameters are as follows when it gives me the error:
Find_Exact("hchen", ws1, "B:B"). The first parameter is the only one that changes in the previously mentioned running of this function.
When I try and run my macro I keep getting an error message saying Unable to get the Find Property of the Range Class and it refers me to:
TeamRef = Worksheets("Info Reference").Range("A3:A120").Find(What:=strFind1, After:=Worksheets("Info Reference"), _
LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False).Address
I'm creating a simple bit of code which needs to include an array formula - but the code below fails;
Selection.FormulaArray = _
"=IF($L3="","",IF(ISERROR(INDEX(Data!$BG$7:$BP$11,MATCH('Pay Advice'!$A$2,Data!$A$7:$A$11,0),MATCH(1,IF(Data!$BG$6:$BP$6='Pay Advice'!$L3,IF(Data!$BG$5:$BP$5='Pay Advice'!H$11,1)),0))),0,INDEX(Data!$BG$7:$BP$11,MATCH('Pay Advice'!$A$2,Data!$A$7:$A$11,0),MATCH(1,IF(Data!$BG$6:$BP$6='Pay Advice'!$L3,IF(Data!$BG$5:$BP$5='Pay Advice'!H$11,1))))))"
"Runtime error 1004: Unable to set the FormulaArray property of the range class"
What am I doing wrong? The formula is fine when typed in.
Here is my code:
Code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
ActiveSheet.Rows("3:62").Hidden = False
Range("D1").Value = ComboBox1.Text
End Sub
I get a runtime error '1004' when I make my combo box selection. I don't have any security or password protection type stuff. The combo box is part of a more complicated spreadsheet and I don't want to switch to a data validation type drop down and I really want it to be activeX.
I have recently tried to implement the password protect from viewing code from this site. It worked brilliant on a basic spreadsheet, but when I tried to implement it on a worksheet with links I keep getting the error:
Run-time error '1004'
Unable to set the hidden property of the Range class
I'm looking to loop a comparison code. I'm using dynamic referencing (using x and y) to find maximum values for specific time intervals. The code works on a cell to cell basis, meaning if I input the formula and change the cell referencing manually then the equation will give the desired results. However when I attempted to create a VBA code to speed up the process I kept getting a 1004 Unable to set FormulaArray Property of the Range Class error, I later figured out that the Formula Array function is limited to a certain number of characters so I split up my function into 3 different string formulas. I still get the same error.

I have created quite a nice little macro that;
drills through a lot of key figures, updates a pivot chart and copies the chart to powerpoint.
However it crashes on one particular data set every time with this error:
Run-time error '1004':
Unable to set the _Default property of the pivot item class
The code where the debugger stops is the last line below here.
lngKpi = Sheets("Helpfile"). Cells(lngRow, 2)
Sheets("Charts").Select
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("DK").Activate
ActiveChart.PivotLayout.PivotTable.PivotFields("KPI # (overall").CurrentPage = lngKpi
I can manually change the pivot chart to the keyfigure it crashes on and thereby workaround the problem in the macro. Also it works for more than 50 other keyfigures without problems.
I have a form with several combo boxes, and they function just the way I like as far as being able to pick from the list, or typing in them and having it show you the next available item in the list as you add letters. Whats happening that I would like to know how to deal with is... as soon as you type a letter that is not in my lookup range it generates an error. "Could not get the list property - Invalid property array index". I don't want people to be able to add to the list, but I would like a msgbox to pop up. Then allow them to go back to the box and try again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've created a class called CStock. It has 5 standard properties (with Get/Let methods) as explained in that article above. Nothing fancy here.
I also want to create a CPortfolio class that has 3 properties: pName, pNumberofPositions, and pHoldings. the first 2 are stardard, but the last one is different. I want it to somehow keep a collection of stocks.
TotHCInv.Value = WorksheetFunction. Sum(KRInv, PBLInv, CRInv, PVInv)
If i >= 34 Then CPSCtphRMA.Value = WorksheetFunction.Average("G" & (i - 30) & ":G" & i)
The first line runs properly, but the second line bugs out with the error message "Unable to get the Average property of the WorksheetFunction class". I can simply do the math, but I thought that using the worksheet function would be easier than summing and dividing. I'm curious, though, as to why I can't seem to use the Average function.
I'm trying to unhide all the cells in a worksheet, but keep getting the "Unable to set the Hidden property of the Range class" error and I'm not sure what to do.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am receiving a run-time error with following code. The error message is "unable to get the VLookup property of the WorksheetFunction class". I only receive the message when the lookup value is not found in the table.
I thought adding the "False" command at the end would return an "N/A" but it didn't. Is there anything I can add to avoid this error?
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.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWhy 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"

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.
Check Personnel Number in Data Tab with Personnel Numbers in Insert Tab. If they match copy that row from Insert Tab and paste it into the next available row in the Moves Tab.
Column Descriptions: Name, Age, Phone Number, Personnel Number, Notes
Worsheet Tabs: Data, Insert, Moves ....
I found the following for something that I was searching for on the web.
Selection.Columns.PasteSpecial Paste:=8
My question is two fold, 1) What does the '8' mean? 2) Is there someplace that tells me what other numbers for PasteSpecial mean?
This solved a problem that I had when trying to do a PasteSpecial for Column Width. What I had been trying was the following:
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlColumnWidths, Operation:=xlNone, _
SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
But I would get the error run time error '1004', PasteSpecial method of Range class failed.
Unable to get the Match property of the worksheetfunction class? Here is my code
