Hello Paul, Thank you. What I am trying is to gather data from same address on many sheets in my workbook. The name of the file is 2008-04 BIL.xls and within I have sheets called KM, KS and KD (of course this is just a representative picture of a larger project). Can you kindly suggest what I should do?
Also thank you for pointing out for starting with 0 declaring an array. Thanks again Ahmet 2009/5/28 Paul Schreiner <schreiner_p...@att.net> > you're trying to "insert the sheet name"??? > > I assume the . . . is including code that is selecting a different cell. > so the ActiveCell for loop x = 1 is different than the Active Cell when x = > 3. > > try recording a macro. > Also, keep in mind that when you declare an array, > the indexes start at 0, not 1. > so, Dim Company(3) has values in Company(0), Company(1) and Company(2). > there IS no Company(3) > Next "+" means to ADD two values. > what you mean to do is to "concatenate" two strings using "&" > > try: > Sub test() > Dim Company(4), x > Company(1) = "KM" > Company(2) = "KS" > Company(3) = "KD" > For x = 1 To 3 > Cells(x, 1).Select > ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "='[2008-04 BIL.xls]" & Company(x) & > "'!R7C4" > Next x > End Sub > Paul > ------------------------------ > *From:* Ahmet Yalcin <ahmetyalc...@gmail.com> > *To:* excel-macros@googlegroups.com > *Sent:* Thursday, May 28, 2009 10:19:08 AM > *Subject:* $$Excel-Macros$$ Need help on syntax > > Hello, > > Please help me with the right syntax writing the below > ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "='[2008-04 BIL.xls]+Company(x)'!D7" line.
