A "1004" error is a very generic error that means "something went
wrong but we're not going to tell you what". When you get the error,
click on the Debug button in the message box. That will take you to
the offending line of code. Post that line of code.

Hello,

I have a file with a code for blinking text.
At this moment I am entering some data in this file, so I click on macro in
the tool bar to stop the blink texts. The problem is that after I save the
file and come to close the file, a window appears with this error.

Run - time error '1004'
Method 'On Time' of object '_Application' failed.

Below is the code:


Public RunWhen As Double
Sub StartBlink1()
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Open").Range("A1:A3,B1:B3 ,C1:C3").Font
If .ColorIndex = 5 Then ' Red Text
.ColorIndex = 49 ' White Text
Else
.ColorIndex = 5 ' Red Text
End If
End With
RunWhen = Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, 1)
Application.OnTime RunWhen, "StartBlink1", , True
End Sub

Sub StopBlink1()

ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Open").Range("A1:A3,B1:B 3,C1:C3").Font.ColorIndex = _
xlColorIndexAutomatic
Application.OnTime RunWhen, "StartBlink1", , False
End Sub
Sub StartBlink2()
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Serie A").Range("AP6,AX6").Font
If .ColorIndex = 3 Then ' Red Text
.ColorIndex = 2 ' White Text
Else
.ColorIndex = 3 ' Red Text
End If
End With
RunWhen = Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, 1)
Application.OnTime RunWhen, "StartBlink2", , True
End Sub

Sub StopBlink2()
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Serie A").Range("AP6,AX6").Font.ColorIndex = _
xlColorIndexAutomatic
Application.OnTime RunWhen, "StartBlink2", , False
End Sub

If .ColorIndex = 3 Then ' Red Text
.ColorIndex = 2 ' White Text
Else
.ColorIndex = 3 ' Red Text
End If
End With
RunWhen = Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, 1)

End Sub

Sub StopBlink3()

End Sub
Sub StartBlink4()

If .ColorIndex = 3 Then ' Red Text

Else
.ColorIndex = 3 ' Red Text
End If
End With
RunWhen = Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, 1)

Any help please,
Thanks in advance.
