That is only where the error shows, the problem is elsewhere.

So I replace the formula in the below macro with the one you gave me?

What about the line?

.Formula = sFormula



Sub makeformulae()
Dim frng As Range
Const sFormula As String = _
"=if(a9="""";"""";if(isna(vlookup(a9;råb1;3;false) );"""";(vlookup(a9;råb1;3*
;

false))))"
Sheets("Bogholderi").Select
Set frng = Range("O9:O" & Cells(Rows.Count, "O").End(xlUp).Row)
With frng
.Formula = sFormula
.Value = .Value
End With
End Sub

It shouldn't be that, the formula should install okay, it would just show

Did you notice Dav e's follow-up post to mine where he suggested using
commas in VBA n ot semi-colons. That could throw the application error.
Try
it with

Const sFormula As String = _
"=if(a9="""","""",if(isna(vlookup(a9,råb1,3,false) )," & _
""""",(vlookup(a9,råb1,3,false))))"

It shouldn´t matter should it? I can always change it to the
traditional way if it´s a problem

Do you really have a range named: råb1

Hi Bob,

thanks for yout input. However this line doesn´t seem to work:

.Formula = sFormula

"Application or object defined error" it says.

Any thoughts?

If Bob's formula didn't work, then I'd try:

Const sFormula As String = _
"=if(a9="""","""",if(isna(vlookup(a9,råb1,3,false) ),""""," & _
"(vlookup(a9,råb1,3,false))))"

Semicolons have been replaces with commas--VBA is pretty USA
centric.

Hi everybody

My formula looks exactly like this:

Sub makeformulae()
Sheets("Bogholderi").Select
Set frng = Range("O9:O" & Cells(Rows.Count, "O").End(xlUp).Row)
With frng
Formula =


"=if(a9="";"";if(isna(vlookup(a9;råb1;3;false));"" ;(vlookup(a9;råb1;3;false*
))))"

Formula = .Value 'changes to a value if desired
End With
End Sub

As I understand it this should set my defined formula active in
all
the

cells in column O from row 9 - that is it should return the result
of
the formula in the entire column (almost) - but nothing happens.
Any
thoughts?

And what can I use this line for?

Formula = .Value 'changes to a value if desired
