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
So below is the VBA ....
Sub quicker_Option()
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
[Code] .......
This is the line to debug it says
Range(toDel(i)).EntireRow.Copy ("Sheet2")
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.
Set rngData = wksData.UsedRange
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.
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 encounter error 1004 and copy method of range class failed in this VB routine:
fltPreviousValue = Range(varPreviousCell).Value
fltCurrentValue = Range(varCurrentCell).Value
fltNextValue = Range(varNextCell).Value
Range(varCurrentCell).Activate
If fltCurrentValue = RangeMax(ActiveCell.Offset(-2, 0), ActiveCell.Offset(2, 0)) And _

Range(varCurrentCell).Value >= Range(varNextCell).Value Then
Range(varCurrentCell).Select

I am using Excel 2000 and the error occured at the last command, the bolded one.
How to accomplish the goal described below.
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.
Here are the screen shots of sheet1 and sheet2.
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?
What do I need to do to fix this?
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.

This is the line that I get with the message above. It is only 2 sheets. Excel 2010 Windows 2007
I'm using Excel 2013 and I'm getting an issue in vba I can't figure out. (This is something I've done several dozen time before) But everytime I try to copy a sheet in a workbook,
Sheets("Sheet1").Copy After:=WB.Sheets(WB.Sheets.Count)
I recently copied in this sheet from another workbook, and deleted all of it's formula names, but I can't copy any other sheets now either.
The Run time Error 1004: Copy method of Worksheet Class failed pops up. What is weird is that I put in a msgbox and
MsgBox (WB.Sheets.Count)
returns a "1" though the sheet has about a dozen sheets within it. I've saved the workbook and even saved it as another name.
The sheet I imported has a sheet number of 77 while the previous last sheet was 23, could this be a cause?
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 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.
Worksheets("RoedForm").Select
Worksheets("RoedForm").Copy After:=Worksheets(iCount)
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.
My workbook holds a month template and sheets for each month. I work on modifications in the template ,but would then like to update all the monthly worksheets.

I searched around and found that if i used Me.Unprotect and Me.Protect at the beggining and end of the code, the problem would be solved, except that it isn't. After that, another message appears saying "Invalid use of me keyword"...
Let CopyRange = 'A' & Roll
Range(CopyRange).Select
Roll is dimensioned as Long, and is a counter for line numbers. Is this legal? I'm getting:
Method 'range' of object '_Global' failed.
i just figured out that when you change sheets too often in VBA and get an "Activate Method Of Range Class Failed" or a "Select Method Of Range Class Failed" etc, simply retype the sheets command before it
for example :
Sheets("Work1").Select
Range("A1:D50").Select
OR
Sheets(Work1").Range("A1:D50").Select
this code in VBA, if used too often or the mentioned sheet is not the currently selected sheet in a Sub, will cause errors, and to correct this, simply type
Sheets("Work1").Select
Sheets("Work1").Range("A1:D50").Select
this makes sure that the sheet is selected before running any other range/sheet type commands.
The following code below was very kindly created for me by someone approx 12 months ago and I have been using it without any problems at all.
The purpose of the code is to creates a new Menu/Title item named "Quality" on the main Excel menu bar at the top of Excel and place it between the "Windows" and "Help"
This new Quality menu then has further drop lists which i can add as suited.
Two days ago i started getting the following RunTime Error everytime i open Excel and i can not longer get the new menu "Quality" to show on my Excel menu bar.
run-time error '2147467259 (80004005)':

I have modified this code in the past and used it in at least 4 different appications. However this time my lack of VBA knowledge has got the best of me. I keep getting the error message mentioned in my title and the debug highlight the following:

I am migrating from Excel 2002 to Excel 2007. I get the error Open Method of Workbooks failed on the line :-
Set new_Transactions = Application.Workbooks.Open(Activity_File_Name)
I have checked that Activity_File_name contains the correct value and is stored as a string.
I have a while loop in which I'm updated information in 2 separate worksheets. I'm using the With-block statements separately to update each, but after the 30th iteration (and it's always on the 30th), the VBA code halts and get the "method 'value' of object 'range' failed" error message pointing to a line with the code as follows:
With Sheet1
.Cells(lngRow, 9).Value = intMonths
End With
where "intMonths" is an integer variable which I'm populated properly, and "lngRow" a long variable. When I debug both variables have proper data in them, and I have no idea why this is bombing.
I have a worksheet "Create Origin Zones" - sheet #17 in the array - that has 56 checkboxes.
Users can click anywhere from 1 to 56 checkboxes, and for each checkbox that is checked, I unhide a sheet "Shp Profile Tmpt", copy it after sheet #17, rename it to "Origin " + checkbox#, and give it a title based on a variable in another sheet.
Once that loop is done, I then hide the "Create Origin Zones" sheet, but the user can click a button on the new sheet to go back to the 'Create Origin Zones" sheet and add more zones by clicking more checkboxes and re-running the macro.
Problem is I get that "Run-time error '1004':Copy Method of Worksheet Class failed" when I copy too many sheets. All the solutions I saw involve saving, closing and reopening the workbook but this interrupts my loop. (It would save my workbook and close it.)
I am trying to have somewhere in my loop, say every time 20 or more checkboxes are checked, its saves, closes, reopens and continues the loop to the next checkbox and repeats the copy and paste and renaming etc.
Below is my
Sub pick_origin()
chkcounter = 0
shtnum = Sheets("Create Origin Zones").Index ' find sheet# of 'Create origin zones' to copy sheets after
For i = 1 To 56 'for the 56 origin zones checkboxes

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 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
