Using variables in a formula

Excel Facts

Who is Mr Spreadsheet?
Author John Walkenbach was Mr Spreadsheet until his retirement in June 2019.
Just concatenate them in eg instead of:

Code:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[1]"

you could have:

Code:
myVariable = 1
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[" & myVariable & "]"

I want to use MID function in activecell.formular1c1. =mid(R1C1,&i&,1) is not working neither is =mid(R1C1,"&i&",1)

Welcome to the forum.

Please at least try to provide a meaningful thread title in future.

You can use something like this:

Code:
activecell.formular1c1 = "=mid(R1C1," & i & ",1)"

If you get that error with what I posted, you copied it wrong. ;)
