between calls, and reinitializing them if they are not initialized yet. Global variables are usually used sparingly in VBA. Also, if you are initializing variables that will be used later multiple times, you should initialize them to the greatest extent possible. If your purpose here is to get references to specific cells to access their values or properties, you should ordinarily use a Range object and create a reference to the range instead of just saving the index.

Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Difficulty referencing non active sheet but this must be possible
of the Application object. Anything that's undocumented is not guarnateed to do what you think it does, and not guaranteed to work in future versions of Excel. (2) I've verified (though not the discoverer) that at least one worksheetfunction method -- RoundDown -- gives incorrect results in some circumstances when referred to as Application.RoundDown (3) Error handling is different when you abbreviate worksheetfunction methods to Application.(function). Specifically, an error is not generated, although an error code is in the return value from the function. (4) between reason number 2 and 3, my theory is that the Application version is the version used from worksheet formulas, and the WorksheetFunction version is the only version intended to be used from VBA, and behaves differently as required by an environment that has different error handling and many more datatypes than a worksheet does.

Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Difficulty referencing non active sheet but this must be possible
The file data is not available currently. The program for that is being created elsewhere. But essentially it is this: Looping through raw data cells if xy then set flag value in results cells. If other columns meet other conditions then munge data and set other values in other results cells. Not really more complex than that though some of the conditions and loop control may get tricky in some boundary conditions. Something trivial in C but that is not available to me. So trying to learn something new which used to be much easier as I recall long ago. So anyway just wondering what the way is to reduce the reference to the cells to a minimal string. Your other code worked perfectly so one more step along the path, thanks again. On Tue, Mar 27, 2012 at 4:59 PM, dguillett1 dguille...@gmail.com wrote: The dot is necessary within the WITH statement.
