ConvertFormula Problem
I have never used this but tryActiveCell.FormulaorFormula Required Variant.
A string that contains the formula you want to convert. This must be a valid
formula, and it must begin with an equal signDon GuillettSalesAid

om...
I am unable to convert the following cell's formula:
"='Standard Model'!E34+'Standard Model'!E36+'Standard
Model'!E37+'Standard Model'!E38+'Standard Model'!E39+'Standard
Model'!E32+'Standard Model'!E41"
The cell is 'A1' in 'Standard Model' worksheet 'MyWorkbook.xls'
workbook
I am using:
Application.ConvertFormula(ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1, xlR1C1,xlA1,true,ActiveCel
l)
I get variant "Error 2015" back.
I *think* this is due to ConvertFormula appending the workbook name to
each reference internally and exceeding some string size limitation?
Are there any workarounds for this - I am using the ConvertFormula in
this way to standardise any formula to a $A$1 type. This is in
preparation for tokenising the references based on the $'s.
Any help would be appreciated,
Ant
