This error occurs if you specify the setting Option Base 1 in the module sheet.
NOTE: The array of objects that you pass to the Htmlconvert function must begin with element 0.
WORKAROUND

Declare the array variable that you want to pass to the Htmlconvert unction to begin with item 0.
For example, if an array variable is ObjToConvert, and you want to initialize the array to hold two items, use a Dim statement similar to the following:Dim ObjToConvert(0 to 1) As VariantWhen you assign the appropriate objects to this array, you must begin with element 0 of the array. -or-
- Remove the Option Base 1 setting from the module sheet.
NOTE: If you use this workaround, you must redimension the arrays in the macro.
