Hello,
I am not Excel programmer.
I use visual basic, but my software interacts with the spreadsheet.
I have the following problem.
My code uses statements like the one below:
oExcel.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Cells(oExcel.Act iveCell.Row,
oExLast).Value

This works fine when user uses one spreadsheet only.
But when the user opens another spreadsheet the first one is not ACTIVE
anymore,
however my code still needs to access the first sheet.
So here is my problem. How to keep track of the first sheet?
I tried to do the following:
Dim oExcelWBk As Excel.Workbook ' This is the work book
Dim oExcelWS As Excel.Worksheet ' This is the sheet

oExcelWS = oExcel.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet
but there is Run time Error '91':
Object variable or With block variable not set.

How to do that properly?
Your thoughts please,
Jack

Try:

Set oExcelWS = oExcel.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet
