I need the code to look up a number set in an excel worksheet page.

PRINTERGROUP PRINT Max No. of Files 10

This is on a page called Report Option. I want it to look at the Max number of files number.

This is the code I have now. Can anyone see a problem?

Public Function GetMaxNumberOfFiles() As Integer

On Error GoTo erh

'Assign the value of the cell.
GetMaxNumberOfFiles = sheetReportOptions.Cells(sheetQueries.GetDestinationRow(maxNoFilesQuery), sheetQueries.GetDestinationCol(maxNoFilesQuery))
Exit Function
'Standard error handling.
erh:
AppShowError "GetMaxNumberOfFiles", strReportOptionsErrorName
End Function
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Assuming that you have the string, "PRINTERGROUP PRINT Max No. of Files 10" in one cell, cay cell C3, you could put this formula in another cell, say cell D3:
=RIGHT(C3,LEN(C3)-LEN("PRINTERGROUP PRINT Max No. of Files "))
This would show the number 10, in this case, in D3. Then, in your VBA code, you could simple refer to cell D3.
