Hi!

I have write a custom function sista raden means last row:

Public Function SISTARADEN()
Dim a, h As Integer
a = Worksheets("Stl").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row - 1
h = Worksheets("Stl").Cells(Rows.Count, "H").End(xlUp).Row - 1
If a > h Then
SISTARADEN = a
Else: SISTARADEN = h
End If

End Function

It is then used in a formula =IF(SISTARADEN()/30<1;1;ROUNDUP(SISTARADEN()/30;0))
It is use to automatically create pages in another workbook. The problem is, that if I make a full calculations in another workbook this custom formulas, and a few others, similar to this breaks by returning #VALUE !

What have I done wrong? :eek:
 

Excel Facts

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
Hi, welcome to the forum! You probably need to qualify the workbook. Assuming the UDF is in the workbook that is calling it.

Code:
Public Function SISTARADEN()
 Dim a As Long, h As Long
 a = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Stl").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row - 1
 h = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Stl").Cells(Rows.Count, "H").End(xlUp).Row - 1
 If a > h Then
 SISTARADEN = a
 Else: SISTARADEN = h
 End If
End Function

But, in my opinion, you should really be passing the ranges to the function, so..

Code:
Public Function SISTARADEN(Col1 As Range, Col2 As Range)
 Dim a As Long, h As Long
 a = Col1.Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row - 1
 h = Col2.Cells(Rows.Count, "H").End(xlUp).Row - 1
 If a > h Then
 SISTARADEN = a
 Else: SISTARADEN = h
 End If
End Function

Which you would call like:
=IF(SISTARADEN(stl!A:A;stl!H:H)/30<1;1;ROUNDUP(SISTARADEN(stl!A:A;stl!H:H)/30;0))

Note the changes to the variable declarations.

That second piece of code was a last minute addition to my post and should you opt for that option this would be better:

Code:
Public Function SISTARADEN(Col1 As Range, Col2 As Range)
 Dim a As Long, h As Long
 a = Col1.Cells(Col1.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row - 1
 h = Col2.Cells(Col2.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row - 1
 If a > h Then
 SISTARADEN = a
 Else: SISTARADEN = h
 End If
End Function
