Hi folks,

Peter SSs kindly gave me this formula yesterday which works perfectly when insterted to a cell however put into vba i get a runtime error. Am i doing something wrong? is there something missing?

this is correct though right?

Range("D2").Formula = "=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$100,MATCH(0,INDEX(COUNTIF($D$1:D1,$A$2:$A$100)+(A$2:A$100=""),0),0)),"")"

thanks again in advance

Carl
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
No, you need to double any quotes inside the formula string like this:

Code:
Range("D2").Formula = "=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$100,MATCH(0,INDEX(COUNTIF($D$1:D1,$A$2:$A$100)+(A$2:A$100=""""),0),0)),"""")"
