Glad you got it working.

VBA is USA centric.

Try changing your semicolons to commas (";" becomes ",").

When VBA passes it back to the cell those list separators to what your locale
needs.

No, I didn't. I just added = before the INT(SUMIF("...))"
This is what I have now :
For l = 12 To 23
Set referencepoint = Sheets("maaltijdcheques").Cells(3, l)
Set data = Sheets("data").Cells(15, 2)
With Worksheets("globaal uuroverzicht")
Set myresult = Sheets("globaal uuroverzicht").Range("a1")
myresultStr = "=INT(SUMIF(" & myrange.Address(external:=True,
ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1) & "; " & referencepoint.Address(external:=True,
ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1) & ";" & mycolumns.Address(external:=True,
ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1) & ")/ " & data.Address(external:=True,
ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1) & " + (1 / 2))"
End With
Debug.Print myresultStr
Sheets("maaltijdcheques").Cells(d, l).FormulaR1C1 = myresultStr
Next

I don't have a guess.

Excel will try to correct a formula if you're missing stuff (closing parenthesis
for example). You didn't let excel fix the formula for you, did you?

Hi,

Formula was indeed typo must have been .formulaR1C1. when I omit the = in
the myresultStr to myresultStr ="Sumif(...) the formula in text is written in
the cell. When I manually add a = into the cell, the formula works and I get
the result I want to have, so it seems that there is nothing wrong with the
formula itself. But it is still impossible to have the formula with the = in
myresultStr. How can this be ?

"Dave Peterson" schreef:

Could it be as simple as .formulaR1C1?

If that was just a typo in the message, then try this next.

myresultStr = "=SumIf(....
becomes:
myresultStr = "SumIf(...

Then you're just plopping text into the cell.
Back to excel--change to R1C1 Reference style
Select one of those cells and insert the leading equal sign.

Maybe it'll give you a hint what's wrong with the formula.

I'm really sorry, but it still doesn't work. When I'm inserting the
myresultStr from the immediate window into excel, I get the formula and
result I want. When I'm changing
sheets("maaltijdcheques").cells(d,l).formula = myresultStr into
sheets("maaltijdcheques").cells(d,l).formula = 4, the 4 is filled in all the
defined cells. However when I'm trying back to link
sheets("maaltijdcheques").cells(d,l).formula = myresultStr, I receive a
runtime error 1004. I really do not see what I'm doing wrong? Can it be
something between linken .formula = string which makes it impossible to work
?

The \ operator works in VBA--not in a formula in a cell.

Try putting that same formula in that cell manually and see what excel is
yelling about.

The \, I found in a book explaining VBA, according to the book this should
have been an integer split (something like INT(/)) but I think this is not
correct. I've corrected the formula as suggested (seems to me a very handy
tool, thank you for explaining this possibility) and normally the myresultStr
is now the formula/result I want to obtain. The last problem now is that I
want to link this formula to a variable cell, I've tried as you suggested :
sheets("maaltijdcheques").cells(d,l).FormulaR1C1 = myresultStr but this gives
me an runtime error 1004. Anyideas how to solve this ?

This looks strange:

With Worksheets("globaal uuroverzicht")
myresultStr = "=SumIf(" & myrange.Address(external:=True, _
ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1) & ", " & referencepoint.Address(external:=True, _
ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1) & "," & mycolumns.Address(external:=True, _
ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1) & ")\ " & data.Address(external:=True, _
ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1) & " + (1 / 2)"
End With

What the heck is this ")\ "?

Right after you create this myResultStr, add this line:

Debug.Print myResultStr

Then stop your macro.
Show the immediate window and you'll see what the formula (in R1C1 reference
style) will look like.

Go back to excel and go into R1C1 reference style mode (tools|Options|general
tab)

Paste your formula into the cell you want and watch excel get mad.

Keep track of what you do to fix the formula manually. Then do the same in your
code.

Hi Dave,

It seems that we are living in very different timezones ! Underneath you
will find the complete macro. I think you will find very long but this is
because I'm still in the figure-out phase of VBA. The macro stops everytime
almost at the end. (I'v marked it <==== runtime errorcode 1004 )
