The activesheet could be a worksheet, a chart sheet, a macro sheet, a dialog
sheet...

That's the reason I use a variable that's declared nicely (like you did!).

this code works, but when i put a . after ActiveSheet
I don't get UsedRange (or anything at all) in intellisense to show me what's
available

Debug.Print Application.ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count

if i do
Set oWs = Application.ActiveSheet
Debug.Print oWs.UsedRange.Rows.Count
I do get intellisense....
no big deal, just wondering why

thanks
