Display CountA Formula and Text String in a cell
I have the following line of code that inserts into a particular cell
the count of the No. of asset records listed above it plus a text string declaring " Assets in the selected period" plus it takes the date value of two variables and formats them and places them in cell along the text rng.Formula = "=COUNTA(R[-4]C:R[-1]C)" & "&"" assets Aquired in the selected period " & "" & Format$(first, "short date") & "" - "" & Format$(last, "short date") My problem is that this does not display as i would have liked the dates are merely displayed as decimal numbers. I have changed the format of the cell to correct this but that does not appear to alter anything. How do i get the cell to display the count for the cells display the text message and the criteria range in the same cell |

First, .address by itself won't give you an R1C1 reference style address. So in
this case, you don't want to use .formular1c1 (and $A$9 isn't an R1C1 address, either). So just try Rng.Formula = "=COUNTA(" & ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0).Address _ & ":$A$9)" & " & " _ & """ assets Aquired in the selected period ""&" _ & """" & Format$(First, "short date") _ & " - " & Format$(Last, "short date") & """" wrote: <<snipped rng.FormulaR1C1 = "=COUNTA(" & ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0).Address & ":$A $9)" & " & " & """ assets Aquired in the selected period ""&" & """" & Format$(first, "short date") & " - " & Format$(last, "short date") & """" -- Dave Peterson |
