Absolute reference in R1C1 notation
Excel 2003 Beta
What is the syntax for including an absolute reference within R1C1 notation? My latest attempt: Cells(Selection.Row, 3).FormulaR1C1 = "=TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(RC[-2],A3,""""))" But Excel adds single quotes around the A3. Thanks, Tim C |

Absolute reference in R1C1 notation
Too easy. I used to know that.
Thanks, Tim C "Bob Phillips" wrote in message ... Tim, That's because you've said use R1C1 notation, and then passed it A1 notation, so it thinks A1 is a string. Try Cells(Selection.Row, 3).FormulaR1C1 = "=TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(RC[-2],R3C1,""""))" -- HTH ------- Bob Phillips ... looking out across Poole Harbour to the Purbecks "Tim C" wrote in message ...

Absolute reference in R1C1 notation
Tim,
You are instructing Excel to use R1C1 notation and it doesn't recognize A3 as a cell reference. If it is one that use R3C1 instead. If A3 is text than use ""A3"" As for Absolute Reference R3C3 is absolute R[3]C[3] is relative The difference is in the brackets. steve "Tim C" wrote in message ...
