Hi

the following code is producing a "compile error - automation error".

Any help would be appreciated



Code:
Public Sub addmilestone(shapeleft As Integer, shapetop As Integer, shapeheight As Integer, shapewidth As Integer, shapecolor As Long, shapetype As MsoAutoShapeType)    ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddShape(shapetype, shapeleft, shapetop, shapeheight, shapewidth).Select
        With Selection
            .ShapeRange.Line.Visible = msoFalse
            .Name = myscript & "." & shapecount
            .ShapeRange.TextFrame.MarginLeft = 0#
            .ShapeRange.TextFrame.MarginRight = 0#
            .ShapeRange.TextFrame.MarginTop = 0#
            .ShapeRange.TextFrame.MarginBottom = 0#
            .ShapeRange.Fill.Visible = msoTrue
            .ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.RGB = shapecolor
            .Placement = xlFreeFloating
        End With
        shapearray(shapecount) = Selection.Name
        shapecount = shapecount + 1
End Sub

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
