hi,
yes you are right, the code did not update. but on the sheet the variable
which was set prior to add row shifted to d11 after the row was added. to
test do this
dim r as range
set r = range("D10")
r.select
rows("6:6").insert shift:=xldown
r.select
msgbox r.address

you will set that though set at D10 prior to add row, it is now selecting
D11 and the variable is now D11 after add row.

I'm still not sure what I'm supposed to do. I tried the code you provided in
VB, but when I inserted a row the code: set r = range("D10") did not
update to: set r = range("D11").

Forgetting about auto-updating the macro, is there any way to select a cell
by the variable name instead of the cell location?

I tried Range("var_name").Select but that does not work.

Thanks,

Adam

hi
you might try variables
dim r as range
set r = range("D10")
if you add rows above D10, the variable should shift down if that is what
you are trying to achive.

Hi,

When I insert a row after I have recorded a macro, the macro stops referring
to the correct cells. To fix this, I tried naming all the cells variables
and having the macro refer to the variable names instead of the cell location
(ie. A1).

So instead of:

Range("A1").Select
Selection.Copy

I tried:

Range("pop1d").Select
Selection.Copy

but I get an error message that says "select method of range class failed".
What is the correct way to refer to variable names in visual basic? Also, is
there any other way to have visual basic auto-update and refer to the correct
cells if I were to insert a row after recording the macro?

Thanks,

Adam
