Automation error
 

Hi,

I was using the following code to create a validation list in column A
in the range specified below.

Sub rProducts()
Application.Goto
Reference:=Worksheets("ProductMaster").Range("a4:a 65536")
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 1
With Selection.Validation
.Delete
.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop,
Operator:= _
xlBetween, Formula1:="=categories"
.IgnoreBlank = True
.InCellDropdown = True
.InputTitle = ""
.ErrorTitle = ""
.InputMessage = ""
.ErrorMessage = ""
.ShowInput = True
.ShowError = True
End With
End Sub

This was working fine. Suddenly, it has stopped working and
"Automation Error" is displayed. When debug is clicked, the line
beginning ".Add" is highlighted.

Please help with a solution.

Regards,
Raj

Sounds as if you don't have a range named categories.
