A1:B1 contain headers for a list 90 rows deep. D1:F1 contain headers for
list only two deep. When accessing list two @ D1:F1programmatically,
data form shows list A1:B1, not D1:F1. If I move 'table' two 19 cols to
the right and access programmatically; I get the original worksheet class
failure error, but works fine if I manually [Data|Form] select the list.

The dataform will only work programatically if the list begins in A1 of
any sheet.

Its maddening!

I can't imagine why not. I tried inserting a blank column A ahead of my
data, once I changed the reference, it still worked as before.

Interestingly, it will only work if the first list is in column A.
Placed in any other column produces and error. Is this a bug or is
there a workaround?

That did the trick. I am not sure why that would matter but - it
worked thanks.

Try naming the range "Database" like this:

Sub AddProduct()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Range("AA1:AB1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select ' error
with or
without this line

Selection.Name = "Database"

Application.CutCopyMode = False ' error
with or without this line
ActiveSheet.ShowDataForm '
produces the error

Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

ActiveSheet.ShowDataForm '

I can produce the form manually selecting Data|Form. However, when
trying to add more items, get "cannot extend list or database".

Any ideas?
