Hi

I want to make the lastrow of sheet1 column A common knowledge between
my macros. Reason being is i want to refer the the lastrow a lot of
times

I thought maybe public sub would help this is my code

Public figs
' Count Rows in table
Dim lastRowpub As Long
lastRowpub = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count,
"A").End(xlUp).Row


It keeps coming up saying

Compile Error: Invalid Outside Procedure

and then highlights the (xlUp) part of the line


any ideas?

You need a sub

Public figs
Public lastRowpub As Long

Sub CountRows()
' Count Rows in table
lastRowpub = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count,"A").End(xlU p).Row
End Sub

so would I need to run this sub each time before using the lastrow ?

Yep, in fact it would be better as a function and call the function.

Function lastRowpub() As Long
' Count Rows in table
lastRowpub = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
End Function

You can use this function as follows:

set rng = cells(lasrRowpub(),"a")
