vlookup with variable
Hi Group,
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(""AMAT"",ClosesStock!C[-1]:C,2,FALSE)" Above works and is hard coded with ""AMAT"", but I am having a hard time substituting a variable into the Formula. The Variable is ThisSheet and am trying to get something like this to work: ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(" & ThisSheet & ",ClosesStock!C[-1]:C,2,FALSE)" but it fails for lack of the quote marks, it needs Text. Thanks, David |

You need 3 double quotes instead of just 1
