Naming Ranges Macro Run Time Error 1004
Hi Guys, I hope you are all well.
I am trying to use the below macro to create named ranges on sheet2 using the values in column A Sheet 1. It will also copy the values from Column B & C for each of the named ranges. Attachment 19332 and create a named range for every value in column A sheet 1 like the image attached.
However Every Time I Try and run this macro i get a " Run Time Error 1004" Application Defined Or Object Defined Error
I have removed all blanks spaces and anything that might cause an error and this still pops up.
Code:
Sub TransposeRange_new_code() Dim OutRange As Range
Dim x As Long, y As Long
Dim sKey As String
Dim maxCount As Long
Dim data, dic, keys, items, dataout()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
data = Sheet1.Range("A2:E" & Sheet1.Cells(Sheet1.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row).Value2
Set dic = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
Set OutRange = Sheet2.Range("B2")
For x = 1 To UBound(data, 1)
If Trim$(data(x, 1)) <> "_" Then
sKey = Trim$(data(x, 1)) & Chr(0) & Trim$(data(x, 2))
If Not dic.exists(sKey) Then dic.Add sKey, CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
dic(sKey).Add x, Array(data(x, 4), data(x, 5))
If dic(sKey).Count > maxCount Then maxCount = dic(sKey).Count
End If
Next
ReDim dataout(1 To maxCount + 1, 1 To dic.Count * 3)
keys = dic.keys
items = dic.items
For x = LBound(keys) To UBound(keys)
dataout(1, x * 3 + 1) = Split(keys(x), Chr(0))(0)
dataout(1, x * 3 + 2) = Split(keys(x), Chr(0))(1)
For y = 1 To items(x).Count
dataout(1 + y, x * 3 + 1) = items(x).items()(y - 1)(0)
dataout(1 + y, x * 3 + 2) = items(x).items()(y - 1)(1)
Next y
Next
"OutRange.Resize(UBound(dataout, 1), UBound(dataout, 2)).Value2 = dataout"
For x = 1 To UBound(keys)
OutRange.Offset(0, (x - 1) * 3).Resize(maxCount, 2).Name = "" & validName(Split(keys(x - 1), Chr(0))(0))
With OutRange.Offset(0, (x - 1) * 3 + 1)
.Hyperlinks.Add anchor:=.Cells(1), Address:="mailto://" & .Value2, TextToDisplay:=.Value2
End With
Next
End Sub
Function validName(ByVal sText As String) As String
Dim n As Long
Dim bChars() As Byte
bChars = sText
If UCase$(sText) Like "*[!A-Z0-9._]*" Then
For n = 0 To UBound(bChars) - 1 Step 2
Select Case bChars(n)
Case 46, 48 To 57, 65 To 90, 95
' valid character: _ . number or letter
Case Else
' convert to underscore
bChars(n) = 95
End Select
Next n
End If
validName = bChars
End Function
any help as always would be greatly appreciated,
many thanks and all the best
Jamie
