Beginners question

[Bob Parks]

Hello, I am "taking" a course that appeared on the Web but in the first lesson I've a problem.
The instruction reads were to copy:

Example 2.

Sub Example2()
For x = 1 To 5
      Cells(x, 3).Select 
      Selection.Vaue = x + 1 
Next x 
End Sub

and then with the cursor somewhere within the macro press F5.

This generates a dialog box with Compile Error Variable Not Defined.

Was something left out of the instructions or have I gummed up my software?

I'm a rank beginner so all help will be appreciated.

You probably have Option Explicit at the top of the macro. Also there is no need to select a range to change the value. Try this instead.

Sub Example2() 
Dim x As Long
For x = 1 To 5 
        Cells(x, 3).Value = x + 1 
    Next x 
End Sub

.vaue?

.value
