A1 reference style
 

Hi folks!

Application.Goto Reference:="INDIRECT(R1C1)"

Why won't that accept an A1 reference?

Both of these fail:

Application.Goto Reference:="INDIRECT(A1)"
Application.Goto Reference:="INDIRECT("A1")"

Thanks

A1 reference style
 

Martin,

I tried this:

Application.Goto Reference:=ActiveSheet.Range(ActiveSheet.Range("A1 "))

I get a run-time error 1004

Let me further explain:

A1 contains a defined name like Product1. Product1 refers to cell A100. I
have the macro attached to a button. I click the button and are taken to
Product1 (cell A100).

It works just fine using the R1C1 reference but I'm trying to simplify it
for others who may be confused seeing R1C1.

P.S.: the line of code I posted was generated by the macro recorder.
Application.Goto Reference:="INDIRECT(R1C1)"

Thanks
Biff

Biff,

Goto requires a range object. There you need to do the following:

Application.Goto Reference:=ActiveSheet.Range(ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1))

'or

Application.Goto Reference:=ActiveSheet.Range(ActiveSheet.Range("A1 "))

But it may be easier just to do thew following:

range(ActiveSheet.Range("A1")).select

Hope this helps

Disregard the last post.

It does in fact work just fine.

No need to create "range of range"

Application.Goto Reference:=activesheet.cells(1,1)

or

Application.Goto Reference:=activesheet.range("a1")

should work just fine...

Application.Goto Reference:=activesheet.range("a1")

That doesn't work. It just selects cell A1.

Sorry, I misunderstood your need.

The fact that "INDIRECT(R1C1)" does work is a major surprise for me !
Then, a construct like this one would work too:

Application.Goto Reference:="indirect(" & range("a1").address(,,xlR1C1) &
")"
