Hi,

I am new to VBA coding and i am still in the learning process. Can anybody help me why the codes in red below are not working. I have different sheets in the excel and i have to hide 2 specific row in one sheet when an option is being selected:

Sub bar()
Dim sht
Dim str As String
sht = "NEW"
str = "-"
If sht.Range("I19").Value = str Then
sht.Rows("35:36").Hidden = True
Else: sht.Rows("35:36").Hidden = False
End If
End Sub

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
Because to use it like sht.Range vba expects sht to be a sheet not a string.

Code:
Dim sht As Worksheet
Set sht = Sheets("NEW")

Try
Code:
Sub bar()
   Dim sht
   Dim str As String
   sht = "NEW"
   str = "-"
   With Sheets(sht)
      If .Range("I19").Value = str Then
         .Rows("35:36").Hidden = True
      Else
         .Rows("35:36").Hidden = False
      End If
   End With
End Sub
