Hi all,

i have following user defined function which works well when entered. But, if i open any other workbook and work on it. the results of my udf are changing to #VALUE. please help me how can i fix it.

Function Anchor(cellValue As Variant) As Double

Application.Volatile

Dim result As Double

Dim cell As Range

Dim ws As Worksheet

Set cell = Application.Caller

Set ws = Sheet20



Dim F As Double, N As Double, K As Double, O As Double, P As Double, S As Double, T As Double, U As Double, Q As Double, R As Double

'Bolt Dia

F = cell.Offset(0, -14).Value

'H

K = cell.Offset(0, -11).Value

'LB

N = cell.Offset(0, -8).Value

'DIA

O = cell.Offset(0, -7).Value

't

P = cell.Offset(0, -6).Value

'a OR A

Q = cell.Offset(0, -5).Value

't

R = cell.Offset(0, -4).Value

'F

S = cell.Offset(0, -3).Value

'G

T = cell.Offset(0, -2).Value

'G2

U = cell.Offset(0, -1).Value





Select Case cellValue

Case 1

result = Formula1(F, N, K)

Case "1S"

result = Formula2(F, N, K)

Case 2

result = Formula3(F, N)

Case "2S"

result = Formula4(F, N)

Case 3

result = Formula5(F, N, O, P)

Case "3S"

result = Formula6(F, N, O, P)

Case 4

result = Formula7(F, N, O, P, T, S)

Case 7

result = Formula8(F, N, Q, R, T, S)

Case 5

result = Formula9(F, N, O, P, T, S, U)

Case 6

result = Formula10(F, N, Q, R, S, T)

Case Else

result = 0 ' or any other default value you want to assign

End Select



Anchor = result

End Function
 

Excel Facts

Excel motto
Not everything I do at work revolves around Excel. Only the fun parts.
I have no problem with your function if I open another book.

What I observe is that you have the following variables defined as Double, so if any of the cells that you use in those variables has text, then the function will return the #VALUE error.

VBA Code:
  Dim F As Double, N As Double, K As Double, O As Double, P As Double
  Dim S As Double, T As Double, U As Double, Q As Double, R As Double
 
  F = cell.Offset(0, -14).Value 'Bolt Dia
  K = cell.Offset(0, -11).Value 'H
  N = cell.Offset(0, -8).Value  'LB
  O = cell.Offset(0, -7).Value  'DIA
  P = cell.Offset(0, -6).Value  't
  Q = cell.Offset(0, -5).Value  'a OR A
  R = cell.Offset(0, -4).Value  't
  S = cell.Offset(0, -3).Value  'F
  T = cell.Offset(0, -2).Value  'G
  U = cell.Offset(0, -1).Value  'G2


Please review the following recommendations:

Check that the cells are numbers.​
Or if any of the cells have blank spaces.​
Or if any of the variables should not be declared as Double and should be declared as String.​
It may be that the other workbook updates one of those cells with some text and that's why the function returns #VALUE.​

I arranged your code to make it easier to read:
VBA Code:
Function Anchor(cellValue As Variant) As Double
  Application.Volatile
  Dim result As Double
  Dim cell As Range
  Dim ws As Worksheet
  Dim F As Double, N As Double, K As Double, O As Double, P As Double
  Dim S As Double, T As Double, U As Double, Q As Double, R As Double
 
  Set ws = Sheet20
  Set cell = Application.Caller
 
  F = cell.Offset(0, -14).Value 'Bolt Dia
  K = cell.Offset(0, -11).Value 'H
  N = cell.Offset(0, -8).Value  'LB
  O = cell.Offset(0, -7).Value  'DIA
  P = cell.Offset(0, -6).Value  't
  Q = cell.Offset(0, -5).Value  'a OR A
  R = cell.Offset(0, -4).Value  't
  S = cell.Offset(0, -3).Value  'F
  T = cell.Offset(0, -2).Value  'G
  U = cell.Offset(0, -1).Value  'G2
 
  Select Case cellValue
    Case 1:     result = Formula1(F, N, K)
    Case "1S":  result = Formula2(F, N, K)
    Case 2:     result = Formula3(F, N)
    Case "2S":  result = Formula4(F, N)
    Case 3:     result = Formula5(F, N, O, P)
    Case "3S":  result = Formula6(F, N, O, P)
    Case 4:     result = Formula7(F, N, O, P, T, S)
    Case 7:     result = Formula8(F, N, Q, R, T, S)
    Case 5:     result = Formula9(F, N, O, P, T, S, U)
    Case 6:     result = Formula10(F, N, Q, R, S, T)
    Case Else:  result = 0 ' or any other default value you want to assign
  End Select
  Anchor = result
End Function

Hi,
I tried with your suggestions, still i am getting #value error whenever a new workbook is opened. Again i need to click on the cell where formula is there to give results.
Here is the complete code. Please do the needful.

Function anchor(cellValue As String) As Double
Application.Volatile
Dim result As Double

F = cell.Offset(0, -14).Value
'H
K = cell.Offset(0, -11).Value
'LB
N = cell.Offset(0, -8).Value
'DIA
O = cell.Offset(0, -7).Value
't
P = cell.Offset(0, -6).Value
'a OR A
Q = cell.Offset(0, -5).Value
't
R = cell.Offset(0, -4).Value
'F
S = cell.Offset(0, -3).Value
'G
T = cell.Offset(0, -2).Value
'G2
U = cell.Offset(0, -1).Value


Select Case cellValue
Case 1
result = Formula1(F, N, K)
Case "1S"
result = Formula2(F, N, K)
Case 2
result = Formula3(F, N)
Case "2S"
result = Formula4(F, N)
Case 3
result = Formula5(F, N, O, P)
Case "3S"
