Excel: ACTIVE.CELL() Within SET.VALUE() Returns Macro ErrorLast reviewed: November 2, 1994 |
SUMMARYA macro error will occur at a cell containing a SET.VALUE() function if the ACTIVE.CELL() function is used as the "ref" argument of the SET.VALUE() command. For example, if a macro is run that contains the function "=SET.VALUE(ACTIVE.CELL(),10)" in cell A5, a macro error will occur at cell A5. The SET.VALUE() function can only contain an actual reference to a cell on the macro sheet. The "ref" argument cannot be a reference to any cell outside the macro sheet or the ACTIVE.CELL() function. To place a particular value in a cell on the active worksheet, the FORMULA() command can be used. For example, to enter a 10 in the active cell, use the formula "=FORMULA(10)". |
