Hello

Im trying to insert a formula in a cell, with a mix of strings and integer values but am unsuccessfull.

nr = 41
For k = 1 To 21
If k = 3 Then
Cells((nr + k), "D").Value = "VLOOKUP('User Input'!$C(nr+k),'Work process list'!$A$2:$B$11,2,FALSE)"
End If
Next k

All it does is paste "VLOOKUP('User Input'!$C(nr+k),'Work process list'!$A$2:$B$11,2,FALSE)" as a string.

In this part of the formula C(nr+k)

I would like it to iterate through the rows of the C Column of the worksheet User Input.

Please help
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Try:
VBA Code:
Cells((nr + k), "D").Formula = "=VLOOKUP('User Input'!$C" & nr + k & ",'Work process list'!$A$2:$B$11,2,FALSE)"

It should be
VBA Code:
Cells(nr + k, "D").Formula = "=VLOOKUP('User Input'!$C" & nr + k & ",'Work process list'!$A$2:$B$11,2,FALSE)"
But the loop is irrelevant as it will only put that formula in D44

I am writing a basic code as:

Range("A20:E40").Copy Cells(nr, "A")
Cells(nr, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 35
Cells(nr, "D").Formula = "bla"

In this case line 3 isnt executed, but when I change nr in this line to an integer it works as:

Range("A20:E40").Copy Cells(nr, "A")
Cells(nr, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 35
Cells(43, "D").Formula = "bla"

It is quite strange since the variable nr has been declared globally and if this were the problem with the variable the first two lines wouldnt execute. What could it be ?

Thanks

As this is a totally different question, you will need to start a new thread. Thanks
