A Little More Advanced Range Fill-In
I have this function:
myKey = Key() Selection.Value = myKey If the user highlights a range, a specific value is filled into every single cell highlighted. I want to do this a little better. If the user highlights several rows and columns, I want the myKey to only fill in if the column header (Row 1 value) is "Key" - is this possible in VBA? |

Sub test()
myKey = Key() For Each cell In ActiveSheet.Selection If Cells(1, cell.Column) = "Key" Then cell.Value = myKey End If Next cell End Sub "Derek Hart" wrote: I have this function: myKey = Key() Selection.Value = myKey If the user highlights a range, a specific value is filled into every single cell highlighted.

I get the error:
"Compile Error: For Each control variable must be Variant or Object" How would I correct this code? Derek "Joel" wrote in message ...

did you have the error before my changes? I don't get the error with Excel
2003. Can you post your entire code? "Derek Hart" wrote: I get the error: "Compile Error: For Each control variable must be Variant or Object" How would I correct this code?

Dim myKey As String
myKey = Key() For Each objCell In ActiveSheet.Selection If Cells(1, objCell.Column) = "Key" Then objCell.Value = myKey End If Next objCell What do you think?

chaging the variable cell to objcell doesn't solve your problem. there is
something else wrong. I need to see the entire code.

I switched ActiveSheet.Selection to just Selection and it solved it. Not
sure why the ActiveSheet reference does not work for me, but it works. Do you know why I cannot reference ActiveSheet?
