[Q] msoShapeRectangle: variable not defined
I'm fairly new to drawing objects in Excel from VBA, and have stumbled
on a peculiar issue. the variable msoShapeRectangle, which apprarently is suppoed to be predefined, is not declared. I've recorded the following from Excel: ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeRectangle, 303#, 48#, 255#,250.5)._ Select compliation is aborted with the error message "msoShapeRectangle : Variable not defined". if I don't set "Option Explicit" it compiles, but the value of msoShapeRectangle is Empty. it is used in another worksheet programmed by somebody else and it works perfectly there. the variable msoTrue is also undefined. this is Excel 10 (Excel 2002). any clues? thank you, -- Rolf Lindgren http://www.roffe.com/ |

Rolf, It's from the Microsoft Office library, defined as a MsoAutoShapeType, with value=1. Maybe you do not have a reference set to this library. OK, but how do I establish such a referance? as stated, this works in a workbook that's been made by somebody else - it's in the workbook that I'm working on that it doesn't work. -- Rolf Lindgren http://www.roffe.com/ |
