I take it that the name of the sheet is: PRIPRAVA_PROJEKTA ?? In that case, you need to use: Sheets("PRIPRAVA_PROJEKTA").select
without the (")'s, VBA interprets the string PRIPRAVA_PROJEKTA as a variable name. Since you aren't using "Option Explicit", then VBA allows you to "define" variables at any time. so, VBA defined a variable PRIPRAVA_PROJEKTA, which would be initialized to null ("") which results in: Sheets().Select which would produce an error.
