Hi Friends,

I have a string and a variable called "Formula". I want to append this string with my variable and update this value in the Cells(Lastrow, 3) of my active sheet.

String is :

=IFERROR(IF(O9=” + Formula + " ;””);”Missing Leader Price”) "

Note : Orange part is my string

I tried to do it but its showing error. Can somebody help me to provide the vba code for this.

Thanks

It is showing the text in msgbox. The text in textbox3 is showing in the msgbox.
eg : | "text" |

@Fluff
When my string is just "hello" then it is working fine. please check.

Code:
Dim Formula As String
Formula = TextBox3
MsgBox "|" & Formula & "|"
Cells(Lastrow, 3).Formula = "Hello" & Formula

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
That works fine for me.
Try
Code:
Dim MyFormula As String
MyFormula = TextBox3
Cells(Lastrow, 3).Formula = "=IFERROR(IF(O9=" & MyFormula & " ,""""),""Missing Leader Price"")"
It's best to avoid using VBA keywords (such as Formula) for the names of variables or procedures, as VBA can sometimes get confused.

Code:
Dim MyFormula As String
MyFormula = TextBox3
'MsgBox "|" & MyFormula & "|"
Cells(Lastrow, 3).Formula = "(IF(O9=" + MyFormula + " ,"""");""Missing Leader Price"")"

This part of string is also working fine.

When i add this part of the string "=IFERROR" Then it is not working.

I think VBA is not considering IFERROR as a string.

In that case you have probably got a variable, function, sub or some other procedure called IFERROR.
Check all your code

In this UserForm, I never used IFERROR as variable, function, sub or some other procedure anywhere. :(

Please help me.

Not just in the userform, anywhere in that workbook.

The workbook is very very big. The file size 30MB + . =IFERROR is there in so many modules and functions.

So is there any way i can add this string without changing the other modules and functions ???

Your code works fine for me, so it is not a problem with that line of code.
If you have used IFERROR as the name of a variable or procedure you will need to change it.

I found the issue. It is not because i have used IFERROR as the name of variable . It is because we cannot write a string to a cell which starts with "=" . Because it will be considered as formula. So we have to use '= .

Thanks a lot for your valuable time.

Code:
Cells(Lastrow, 3).Formula = "'=IFERROR(IF(O9=" + MyFormula + " ,"""");""Missing Leader Price"")"
