I am using the following code to automate goal seek with an assigned button. Each time I tried to run it I get an error with big red X with 400. Any idea how to fix this?

Sub GoalSeek1_Click()
Range("E22").GoalSeek Goal:=Range("6000").Value, ChangingCell:=Range("D6")
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
This is an invalid range reference. You are missing the column part of the cell address.
Range("6000")

Thanks a lot for your time. I have now updated the formula as under to get the value from a cell. I have amended it a bit.

Sub GoalSeek1_Click()
Range("E22").GoalSeek Goal:=Range("B22").Value, ChangingCell:=Range("D6")
End Sub

But I run it I get runtime error 1004 Reference isn't valid.

Sorry, I hae been away for a few days.

Can you provide me with what is in cells E22, B22, and D6?

Not a problem at all. Appreciate you coming back. I think you are very clever because you knew what silly users like are usually up to. As you probably expected, I had the wrong cell refs. It is now working well. Very grateful and apologies for wasting your time.
