VBA error
I get an error, "Run-time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined
error" when I run the following macro: Sub Sheet_Names() Dim ws As Worksheet With Worksheets.Add .Name = "Sheet Names" .Move befo=Worksheets(1) End With Sheets("Sheet Names").Activate Range("a1").Activate For Each ws In Worksheets If ws.Name < "Sheet Names" Then ActiveCell.Formula = ws.Name ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select End If Next End Sub What does this error mean and how can I resolve it? The macro is supposed to create a list of tab names in the workbook.

Thanks. So, basic question: how do you know when a block of code should be
contained in its own module? Dave -- A hint to posters: Specific, detailed questions are more likely to be answered than questions that provide no detail about your problem.

Hi Dave
Always copy macros in a normal module Sheet modules are for events for the sheet or controls on the sheet. See this page http://www.cpearson.com/excel/codemods.htm -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl/tips.htm "Dave F" wrote in message ... Thanks.

VBA error
this is a problem which occassionally shows up when you copy sheets often
without saving the workbook try saving thew workbook and try running the macro again. It works fine for me 2003 "Dave F" wrote: I get an error, "Run-time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error" when I run the following macro: Sub Sheet_Names() Dim ws As Worksheet With Worksheets.Add .Name = "Sheet Names" .Move befo=Worksheets(1) End With Sheets("Sheet Names").Activate Range("a1").Activate For Each ws In Worksheets If ws.Name < "Sheet Names" Then ActiveCell.Formula = ws.Name ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select End If Next End Sub What does this error mean and how can I resolve it?
