VBA Countif across sheets?
 

Hello! I'm running into a problem using the the Countif function in a VBA code. If I type =countapples() into cell A1 of Sheet1, it returns the expected answer. See countapples() function below:

________________________________________________
Function CountApples()

Dim TopOfRange As Double
Dim BottomOfRange As Double

TopOfRange = 4
BottomOfRange = 10

Set SearchRange = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(Cells(TopOfRange, 1), Cells(BottomOfRange, 100))

ReturnCount = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(SearchRange, "apple")

CountApples = ReturnCount

End Function
________________________________________________


BUT if I type =CountApples() into cell A1 of Sheet2, it returns #VALUE!

What's the problem with this code? Can CountIf not work across sheets?

The object ref is not fully qualified to "Sheet1" using 'Cells' as is.
Try...


Public Function CountApples#()
Dim rngSearch As Range

Const dTopRow# = 4: Const dLastRow# = 10

Application.Volatile
With Sheets("Sheet1")
Set rngSearch = .Range(.Cells(dTopRow, 1), .Cells(dLastRow, 100))
End With
CountApples = WorksheetFunction.CountIf(rngSearch, "apple")
Set rngSearch = Nothing
End Function

that you always refer to the activesheet:

Function CountApples() As Long

Dim TopOfRange As Double
Dim BottomOfRange As Double
Dim wsh As Worksheet
Dim SearchRange As Range

TopOfRange = 4
BottomOfRange = 10

Set wsh = Application.Caller.Parent
With wsh
Set SearchRange = .Range(.Cells(TopOfRange, 1), _
.Cells(BottomOfRange, 100))
End With

CountApples = WorksheetFunction.CountIf(SearchRange, "apple")

End Function

More appropriately, row/col counts are Type Long, as well as the return
from CountIf. Using Type Double suggests you expect a decimal value,but
only whole numbers are used/returned...


Public Function CountApples&()
Dim rngSearch As Range

Const dTopRow& = 4: Const dLastRow& = 10

Application.Volatile
With Sheets("Sheet1")
Set rngSearch = .Range(.Cells(dTopRow, 1), .Cells(dLastRow, 100))
End With
CountApples = WorksheetFunction.CountIf(rngSearch, "apple")
Set rngSearch = Nothing
End Function
