Hi Ram117 :hi:,
What version of Excel are you using?.
If it's 97, have a look at this Microsoft KB:

Ram 117,
I'm special.
And whenever I have a special problem I talk to my psychologist (and of course my local clairvoyant).
But when I have a special computing problem here's what I do...
I type the message that appears on the screen (or copy and paste it) into my search engine and then put quotation marks around it, before I hit the search button.
More often than not, I get a result.
And when I don't, I usually just give up :)
Or join a forum and demand some answers asap!!!
(Actually I usually delete some of the message in the quotation marks and then add some words to refine the search - eg. Excel (and/or) 97).
Hope that helps you in the future RAM man :)
Ooooh, I like that name.
See ya later alligator.
PS: G'day OBP, you are still the man when it comes to VBA!
