Default Excel - Marco error .......HELP

Code that is in a Button_Click can generally only deal with the sheet the
button belongs to. I would bet the button is on Sheet("Work"), because it
chokes on a reference to Sheet("QData"). If the macro works as expected from
a standard code module, then leave it there. Call the macro to run from the
button_click only.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Call MyMacro
End Sub

Good afternoon all,

I am having a problem converting a marco to a command button. When I run
this marco .... TOOLS, MARCO, MACROS..., (name).. RUN , the marco runs
correct. When I copy clip the marco to the View Code in the command
button,
it does not work. Below is a attached file that might be able to explain
it
better. Please help, or what can I do to fix.

Thanks,
ALP

This is what I have in the accutal MARCO. (this works, when I run the
marco)

Dim myRange As Range
Set myRange = Worksheets("Work").Range("L1")

If myRange = 1 Then

Range("R4:R36").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("QDATA").Select
Range("C4").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=1
Sheets("WORK").Select
ActiveWorkbook.SAVE
Range("A2").End(xlUp).Select

ElseIf myRange = 2 Then

Range("R4:R36").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("QDATA").Select
Range("D4").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=1
Sheets("WORK").Select
ActiveWorkbook.SAVE
Range("A2").End(xlUp).Select

This is what happens when I try to set this marco to be on my
CommandButton1. (doesn't work)

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

Dim myRange As Range
Set myRange = Worksheets("Work").Range("L1")

If myRange = 1 Then

Range("R4:R36").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("QDATA").Select
Range("C4").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=1
Sheets("WORK").Select
ActiveWorkbook.SAVE
Range("A2").End(xlUp).Select


ElseIf myRange = 2 Then

Range("R4:R36").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("QDATA").Select
Range("D4").Select ................ this is what is highlighted as error
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=1
Sheets("WORK").Select
ActiveWorkbook.SAVE
Range("A2").End(xlUp).Select


My error message is:

Run-Time error '1004':
Select Method of Range class failed.
