Code:
Range("'Exhibit " & """I"" "'!$C$3:$D$3").clearcontents
I have a worksheet called Exhibit "I" and inside that worksheet I have various ranges that I would like cleared when this workbook opens. This is just one of many ranges I would like cleared. The above code returns a syntax error. How can I fix this issue. Thank You
 

Excel Facts

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Maybe...
Code:
Worksheets("Exhibit " & """I""" & " ").Range("C3:D3").ClearContents

Based on your other post

After turning on my Auto Syntax Check editor, it now displays "Compile error: Expected: list serparator or )" for the above code. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the way the sheet is named but I have no idea how to fix this.
The code below has no problems with clearing the Range's content.
Code:
Range("'page 2'!$C$5:$D$5").ClearContents
Any help would be greatly appreciated on fixing this issue. Thank you.
