Default VBA formula strings longer than 255 characters

Hi all,

My question appears to be related to "Article ID : 213841". I'm running
Excel 2003 and using VBA to parse some formulas from a seperate Workbook. All
is fine until I run into a situation when a formula is longer than 255
characters. So, I have tried MS's workarounds as follows:

If Len(nfrmla) 255 Then
With Selection
..Formula = ""
For indx = 0 To Application.RoundUp(Len(nfrmla) / 255, 0)
..Characters(.Characters.Count + 1).Insert = Mid(nfrmla, (indx * 255) + 1, 255)
Next indx
End With
Else: ActiveSheet.Range(frmlaCel).Formula = nfrmla
End If

The result is the continued "Run-time error '1004'". Pease help me solve this?

Thank you in advance.
