I am a novice VBA user. I have a menu page with different cells that all hyperlink to hidden sheets. All sheets unhide except a few that give me the "Run Time error 9 - Subscript out of range". Where is my error? Thank you for looking! Below is a pic of the debug (Error is in RED) line and the code:

Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)

Dim strSheet As String

If InStr(Target.Parent, "!") > 0 Then
strSheet = Left(Target.Parent, InStr(1, Target.Parent, "!") - 1)


Else
strSheet = Target.Parent
End If

Sheets(strSheet).Visible = True

Sheets(strSheet).Select

End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()

Dim ws As Excel.Worksheet

For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
If ws.Name = "Instructions" Then
ws.Visible = True
ElseIf ws.Name = "IRA Matrix" Then
ws.Visible = True
ElseIf ws.Name = "Activity List" Then
ws.Visible = True
Else
ws.Visible = (ws.Name = Me.Name)
End If
Next

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Move date out one month or year
Use =EDATE(A2,1) for one month later. Use EDATE(A2,12) for one year later.
The error means that a sheet with name was not found. Place a breakpoint in your code and check values being assigned to strSheet variable; or temporarily add a msgbox statement to display its value.

The parent of a Hyperlink is a String of the URL or link location (including at least sheet and cell). It is unlikely to be just a sheet name.
