Hi there,

This formula works in the sheet but it won't compile in VBA due to a syntax error. Any tips? Thank you!

As it appears in the sheet: =INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1, COLUMN(), 4),1,"")&"$"&$A8)*(Y8/100)

As it appears in VBA: Sheets(shName).Range("C" & b + 1).Formula = "=INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1, COLUMN(), 4),1,"")&"$"&$A8)*(Y8/100)"
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
I think it has something to do with one of the $ signs but if I double quote the $ (""$"") a 1004 error pops when I run it

Hi & welcome to MrExcel.
You need to double-up on the quotes inside the formula like
VBA Code:
 Sheets(shName).Range("C" & b + 1).Formula = "=INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1, COLUMN(), 4),1,"""")&""$""&$A8)*(Y8/100)"
