The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

runtime error 1004 in excel vba

Asked by theMuzz in Miscellaneous Programming

Tags: , , , ,

Would anyone have even the slightest idea what might be going wrong with the following code?
Sometimes it works fine, but most of the time I get a 'runtime 1004: application-defined or object-defined error'

NOTES:
-When stepping through application, runtime 1004 error is raised on the 'End Function' of the parseFormula function

Offending Code
------------------

Chunk of offending code from main function
Sheet1.cells(x, y).Value = Sheet1.cells(x, y).Value & parseFormula(ri(i).getPreFormula, x)  ' first var is string, second is integer

Same as above but I've substituted function calls with the data that's actually being passed
Sheet1.cells(x, y).Value = Sheet1.cells(x, y).Value & parseFormula("1+", 2) ' first var is string, second is integer


Parse Function Formula
---------------------------

' Convert $D to D & row Number
' IE: $D+E$ would return D4+E4 for fourth row, D5+E5 for fifth row, etc...

Public Function parseFormula(ByVal formula As String, ByVal row As Integer) As String
    Dim a As Integer
    Dim char As String
    Dim formattedFormula As String
   
    For a = 1 To Len(formula)
        char = Mid(formula, a, 1)
           
        If char = "$" Then
            If Asc(LCase(Mid(formula, a + 1, 1))) >= 97 And Asc(LCase(Mid(formula, a + 1, 1))) <= 122 Then
                formattedFormula = formattedFormula & Mid(formula, a + 1, 1) & row
                a = a + 1
            End If
        Else
            formattedFormula = formattedFormula & Mid(formula, a, 1)
        End If
    Next a

    MsgBox "." & formattedFormula & "."
    parseFormula = CStr(formattedFormula)
End Function


in debug, parseFormula does indeed return +1, press F8 again and move to End Function line, press F8 again, runtime 1004

The complete application is avaialble if you would like to test it for yourself.
Thanks in advance


Update: I've been working this problem off and on for a few days now and have finally managed to narrow it down a bit.
Seems it doesn't like the
sheet1.cells(x,y).value = sheet1.cells(x,y).value
since msgbox "." & parseFormula(ri(i).getPreFormula, x) & "." works beautifully for all lines and all situations...Start Free Trial
