With this code I obtain a 'Method of 'Range' object '_Global' failed error:

Dim Addr As String
Dim SelRange As Range


Addr = frmImport.RefEdit1.Text

Set SelRange = Range(Addr)

This code is in a Button select event on a userform.

Your variable "addr" does not evaluate to a cell location.
Just guessing, but maybe if you dropped the .Text from the
variable assignment, it might work.

After reading your post again, I'm not so sure that my first suggestion would
work either. Anyhow, you need to use a cell reference to do what you are
trying with the Range(?).

Hi Steve,
the RefEdit only works if your sheet is in the $A style not in the R1C1
style

you have two choises :

1) Change the style to R1C1 by VBA (and setting it back if that was what the
user wants)
2)Issue a warning to the user that he must set the R1C1

Tools = Options = General = Check R1C1

Here is an example for the VBA solution that works for me :


========================

Option Explicit
Public Change As Boolean
Sub HeatMap()
'
' Gys de Jongh Feb-2006
' This Routine Constructs a HeatMap
' on the Selected Range in Excel
'
'First Check the reference style of this user
'The Refedit Box only works in the xlA1 style
'Store it in the Public variable Change to set
'it back for the user after the Routine exits
'
Change = False
If Application.ReferenceStyle = xlR1C1 Then
Change = True
Application.ReferenceStyle = xlA1
End If
'
' Choose Color Serie 1 and Highest = Red
' as the Defaults
'
UserForm1.OptionButton1.Value = True
UserForm1.OptionButton3.Value = True
UserForm1.RefEdit1 = ""

Yes, it was that I had excel in the R1C1 mode. Thanks for all the help, now
it works just fine.

Good catch.

This seemed to work ok, too:

Option Explicit
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim Addr As String
Dim SelRange As Range

Addr = Me.RefEdit1.Text

If Application.ReferenceStyle = xlR1C1 Then
Addr = Application.ConvertFormula(Formula:=Addr, _
fromreferencestyle:=xlR1C1, toreferencestyle:=xlA1)
End If

Set SelRange = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
Set SelRange = Range(Addr)
On Error GoTo 0

If SelRange Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Please select a valid range"
Exit Sub
End If

'do the real work
MsgBox SelRange.Address(external:=True)
End Sub
