Hi All, I have been searching and changing this code and nothing has worked. I have been running the code after copying the formula as a work around. Can anyone explain what it is I am doing incorrectly. Ive tried the following:

Code:
Sub Key_Items_Validation1()

Sheets("ProductivityData MTD").Select

    Range("y1").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Validation"
    
    Rows("1:1").Select
    Selection.AutoFilter
    Selection.AutoFilter
'I have a filter and need it to also include the new column being added, so I turn it off and back on
    
 Range("y2").Formula = "IFERROR(IF(OR(VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1653,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1717,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1802,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1803,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1804,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1805,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2659,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2664,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2665,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2666,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2667,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2702,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2729,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2730,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2731,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2747,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2750,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2862,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2863,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2864,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2865,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2866,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2867,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2972),VALUE(VLOOKUP(A2&""*"",'Call Report Data MTD'!A:A,1,0))=A2,""""),""Not Found"")"

Range("y2:y" & Sheets("ProductivityData MTD").Range("A" & Rows.Count - 1).End(xlUp).Row).Select

Selection.FillDown

End Sub

And

Code:
Sub Key_Items_Validation2()Sheets("ProductivityData MTD").Select

    Range("y1").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Validation"
    
    Rows("1:1").Select
    Selection.AutoFilter
    Selection.AutoFilter
    
    Range("y2").Select
      ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IFERROR(IF(OR(VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1653,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1717,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1802,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1803,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1804,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1805,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2659,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2664,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2665,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2666,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2667,V" & _
        "T(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2702,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2729,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2730,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2731,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2747,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2750,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2862,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2863,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2864,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2865,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2866,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4)" & _
        "LUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2972),VALUE(VLOOKUP(R[-2]C[-24]&""*"",'Call Report Data MTD'!C[-24],1,0))=R[-2]C[-24],""""),""Not Found"")"

Range("y2:y" & Sheets("ProductivityData MTD").Range("A" & Rows.Count - 1).End(xlUp).Row).Select
Selection.FillDown
End Sub

I can only get it to work this way:

Code:
Sub Key_Items_Validation()
Sheets("ProductivityData MTD").Select

    Range("y1").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Validation"
    
    Rows("1:1").Select
    Selection.AutoFilter
    Selection.AutoFilter
    
    Range("y2").Select
    ActiveSheet.Paste

Range("y2:y" & Sheets("ProductivityData MTD").Range("A" & Rows.Count - 1).End(xlUp).Row).Select
Selection.FillDown
End Sub

Which I run after copying the formula. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
Crystal

Click the italics "fx" icon to the left of the formula bar to open the Functions Arguments dialog. Help is displayed for each argument.
Key_Items_Validation will be executed to handle the Validation event from the Key_Items object. The Subs named Key_Items_Validation1 and Key_Items_Validation2 will not get triggered by an event because there is no event called Validation1 nor Validation2. In VBA an event handler must be named Object_Event. Anything else and it will be skipped, unless you call it directly.
Code:
Public Sub Key_Items_Validation()
    Key_Items_Validation1
    Key_Items_Validation2
End Sub
This will call the two non-event handlers from within the properly named event handler.

How about instead,

Code:
  ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
  "=IFERROR(IF(OR(--LEFT(R[-1]C[-1],4) = {1653,1717,1802,1803,1804,1805,2659,2664,2665,2666,2667,2702,2729,2730,2731,2747,2750,2862,2863,2864,2865,2866,2867,2972}," & Chr(10) & "--VLOOKUP(R[-1]C[-4] & ""*"", 'Call Report Data MTD'!C[-4], 1, 0)) = R[-1]C[-4], """"), ""Not Found"")"

Hmmm, I'm not intending to call an 'event'. I intending to paste a formula into the cell...I just named it differently because I was experimenting with different codes...Neither 1 or 2 is working. Once I get it to work, it won't have a number on it at all. It would look like this:

Code:
Sub Key_Items_Validation()

Sheets("ProductivityData MTD").Select

    Range("y1").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Validation"
    
    Rows("1:1").Select
    Selection.AutoFilter
    Selection.AutoFilter
    
    Range("y2").Select
      ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IFERROR(IF(OR(VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1653,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1717,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1802,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1803,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1804,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=1805,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2659,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2664,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2665,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2666,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2667,V" & _
        "T(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2702,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2729,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2730,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2731,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2747,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2750,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2862,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2863,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2864,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2865,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2866,VALUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4)" & _
        "LUE(LEFT(R[-2]C[-21],4))=2972),VALUE(VLOOKUP(R[-2]C[-24]&""*"",'Call Report Data MTD'!C[-24],1,0))=R[-2]C[-24],""""),""Not Found"")"

Range("y2:y" & Sheets("ProductivityData MTD").Range("A" & Rows.Count - 1).End(xlUp).Row).Select
Selection.FillDown
End Sub

in cell y2 I want the formula:

=IFERROR(IF(OR(VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1653,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1717,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1802,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1803,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1804,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=1805,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2659,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2664,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2665,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2666,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2667,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2702,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2729,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2730,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2731,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2747,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2750,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2862,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2863,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2864,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2865,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2866,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2867,VALUE(LEFT(D2,4))=2972),VALUE(VLOOKUP(A2&"*",'Call Report Data MTD'!A:A,1,0))=A2,""),"Not Found")

It ran without error, but did not give me the result I was expecting. Let me play around with it a bit. thx for your help!
