Hi Bart,

Nothing obvious springs to mind. A Sheet with an autofilter (or sheet that
has had an autofilter) will include a worksheet level name like this

Sheet1!_FilterDatabase

If user selects the cells with the dropdown filters that's what would be
returned with
Target.Name.Name

However that shouldn't cause a problem. Best thing would be to ask the user
to send you a copy of the problematic workbook, stripped down with just
enough to reproduce the problem.

Regards,
Peter T

In a loaded .xla add-in I have the following code in the ThisWorkbook
module:

Option Explicit
Private WithEvents xlApp As Excel.Application

Private Sub xlApp_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As
Range)
On Error GoTo ERROROUT
If Len(Target.Name.Name) 10 Then
Application.StatusBar = Space(8) & Target.Name.Name
Else
Application.StatusBar = False
End If
Exit Sub
ERROROUT:
Application.StatusBar = False
End Sub

This code runs fine on many machines, but on one particular machine only
(Excel 2003, Win XP) the line
If Len(Target.Name.Name) 10 Then
crashes Excel when there is a filter in the sheet.

What possibly could be the trouble here?
I can't reproduce this at all on my machine, so difficult to unravel this
problem, but maybe somebody
has an idea.
