Object Required Error when Selecting Range

[ScottyBee]

Hello,

The below code works just fine but is including data in column B which I do not want

Sub ColorMaximumValue()
    Dim rng As Range, cell As Range, Maximum As Double
    Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
    Set rng = Range("A1").CurrentRegion
    'Set rng = Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlDown)).Select
    Maximum = Application.WorksheetFunction.Max(rng)
    For Each cell In rng
        If cell.Value = Maximum Then
        cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 22
        End If
    Next cell
End Sub

I adjusted the code to be:

Sub ColorMaximumValue()
    Dim rng As Range, cell As Range, Maximum As Double
    Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
    'Set rng = Range("A1").CurrentRegion
    Set rng = Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlDown)).Select
    Maximum = Application.WorksheetFunction.Max(rng)
    For Each cell In rng
        If cell.Value = Maximum Then
        cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 22
        End If
    Next cell
End Sub

I get "Object Required" Error. I am not sure why as I tested Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlDown)).Select in the immediate window and it worked just fine. Any ideas? Thanks
