Help with selecting all cells in a sheet -- Error 1004
Tim,
I am opening a lot of workbooks and modifying them. I have them
hidden to speed up the time, so excel is not switching back and forth
between all the windows. Even though they are not visible, I want to
process them.

I don't think you can select cells in a hidden workbook.
If the workbook is hidden, why do you need to select the cells: what comes
after that ?

Hello,
I am having problems selecting all the cells of a worksheet. *I am
getting Error 1004.
I have two workbooks. *Workbook1 is where the VBA code is running. *I
want to select all the cells of the first sheet of Workbook2. *After
opening Workbook2, I make it invisible.
In the vba code I call a subroutine and pass it Workbook2.
The following code causes error 1004:
dim ws as worksheet
set ws = workbook2.sheets(1)
ws.activate
ws.Cells.Select * ***Error happens here
Any help would be greatly appreciated. *I am activating the worksheet
in Workbook2 and then trying to select the cells. *Does anyone know
why I am getting the error?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. *I am totally stuck here.
Thanks,
Scott
