implement test="=(SUM(R[-181]C:R[-170]C)-string1)/string2 "inVBA?
 

How do I implement: test="=(SUM(R[-181]C:R[-170]C)-string1)/string2 "in excel
VBA ?

Seems like VBA understands test="=SUM(R[-181]C:R[-170]C)-string1 but not
when dividing by one more string

HELP

implement test="=(SUM(R[-181]C:R[-170]C)-string1)/string2 "inVBA?
 

I think you would get a better answer if you gave a specific example that
works and a specific example that does not work. Also, once assigned to the
variable "test", what do you intend to do with "test".

HELP

implement test="=(SUM(R[-181]C:R[-170]C)-string1)/string2 "inV
 

This works:
teststreng = "=SUM(R[" & s - 183 & "]C:R[" & s - 172 & "]C)-" & Costs &""

This does not work:
teststreng = "=(SUM(R[" & s - 183 & "]C:R[" & s - 172 & "]C)-" & Costs &
")/" & Depreciation & ""


This is what teststreng is for( just pasting the value in to cells):
Worksheets("VaR").Cells((p), (q)).Activate ' p and q are counting varaibles
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = teststreng


But it does accept depreciation and assigns it the right number, teststreng
accepts it but the trouble is in ActiveCell. Formula part.

Thank you:-)

demo'd from the immediate window:
costs = 100
Depreciation = .5
s = 200
activeCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=(SUM(R[" & s - 183 & "]C:R[" & s - 172 & "]C)-" &
Costs & ")/" & Depreciation & ""
? activecell.Formula
=(SUM(A18:A29)-100)/0.5
? activecell.FormulaR1C1
=(SUM(R[17]C:R[28]C)-100)/0.5

so that formula worked fine for me as long as the variables were defined.

If there are decimal separators in Depreciation, they should be the International ones, not your local ones.
Or use the FormulaR1C1Local property instead.
