Hi,
I want to know if it is possible to change a "counter" amount, (or call address number?) from a sub which the main sub calls. For example, suppose I have a setup something like this: Sub MySub() Count = 1 Coot = 2 For i = 1 to 50 Count = Count + 1 Coot = Coot + 1 If Sheet1.Cells(Count,1) < Then Fred () .... Next i End Sub Fred() (some code) End Sub The data I am looking at is such that if something happens in Fred(), the counter value for MySub() must be altered. Usually it has to be increased. For example, if the next Count number in MySub() shuuld be, say, 8 (according to the For...Next system), a value I discover in Fred may make it necessary for the counter in MySub() to be, say 9. This allows the program to look at a cell in a different order that it would automatically do following the instructions in MySub(). i.e. Cell (9,1) instead of Cell (8,1) Right now I do not seem to be able to have that happen. I have looked at the counter value in Fred() and I can make it change to any number I want by adding X to it (Count = Count + X). However, when I look at "Couint' in MySub() it does not change to the value I give it in Fred(). (At least I do not think it does and I do not get the end result I need.) . I have set the variable "Count" to Public but even if I change it it Fred(), it MySub() does not seem change "Count." The program I am writing works OK except for the counter problem. Any suggestions as to how I can do what I need to do? Thanks |
