Selecting an active cell
Hello all,
I have a userform that is opened from a button on a worksheet. Private Sub range(A11).select frm_W2.show End Sub The userform is opened after cell A11 is selected because when the userform opens I want it to populate itself with the first record's data on the worksheet. The reason I don't select the cell in this sub is because I need to call this code up later to repopulate another record. frm_W2.tb_EIN.Value = ws.Cells(ActiveCell).Value frm_wc.tb_2.value = ws.Cells.Offset(0,1).Value and so on... I get a type mismatch with the first line. Can someone help with this? |

Selecting an active cell
Cells normally takes a row,column argument. I just tried the following:
activesheet.cells(6,5).value = "san diego" from the immediate pane, but instead of 6,5 I used activecell and got a type mismatch error. When I substituted the above, it worked. HTH.

Selecting an active cell
Thanks for your help.
Is the second line of code correct? or should it be frm_wc.tb_2.value = ActiveCell.Offset(0,1).Value "Jim Thomlinson" wrote: frm_W2.tb_EIN.Value = ActiveCell.Value -- HTH...
