When a user double-clicks on a cell in one worksheet (on row 10), I want to put the location of that column in F3 on another worksheet.


Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
 Cancel = True
  If Target.Column > 2 And Target.Row = 10 Then
   Dim c As Long
   c = Worksheets("Deliverables").ActiveCell.Column
   Worksheets("Deliverables Prep").Range("F3") = c
  End If
 End Sub
So if the user double-clicks on a cell in row 10, column 5 on "Deliverables", I want 5 to go into F3 on "Deliverables Prep".


But when I execute the above code, I get this error message, "Object doesn't support this property or method."


I've even tried this code, but without success:


Code:
Worksheets("Deliverables Prep").Range("F3") = Worksheets("Deliverables").ActiveCell.Column
What am I missing please?

You cannot copy an entire column & then paste it starting in row 3.
Either copy to F1, or only copy the used range.

No need to use "ActiveCell". Target is the ActiveCell that triggered the code to run.

Try this:
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
    
    Dim c As Long
    
    Cancel = True
  
    If Target.Column > 2 And Target.Row = 10 Then
        c = Target.Column
        Worksheets("Deliverables Prep").Range("F3") = c
    End If
    
 End Sub

Try
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
 Cancel = True
  If Target.Column > 2 And Target.Row = 10 Then
   Dim c As Long
   c = Target.Column
   Worksheets("Deliverables Prep").Range("F3") = c
  End If
 End Sub
