VBA Error 1004 (Global Range Failed)

Hi,

It has been a few years since I have really wrote any substantial amount of macros. This one is a few years old and I am trying to identify the issue and feel like it should be coming to me easier. I am hoping someone else with a little better knowledge base might be able to identify it easily.

The VBA essentially runs a quick set of calculations upon workbook open. I adjusted the location that it is doing this by one column which changed the range reference but not sure why this would have impacted its operation.

Runtime 1004 is showing up on the following line items from the code below. Based on my understanding it is most likely due to the reference of the text denotation of the column (i.e. "C" or "D"). What I am struggling with is why this is the problem as it worked before and what a quick fix would be.

Range("C" & r) = (A + B) * (C ^ D)
Range("D" & r) = (A + B) * (C ^ D) * F
Range("E" & r) = (A + B) * (C ^ D) * (E ^ dblPowerToE) * F

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()    Dim A As Long, B As Long, C As Long, D As Long, E As Long, F As Long, N As Long
    Dim dblNetWorkDays As Double, dblEstWorkHrs As Double, dblHoursInDay As Double
    Dim dblAvailHours  As Double, dblPowerToE   As Double
    
    N = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
    
    For x = 4 To N
  
       If Range("A" & x).Value <> "" And Range("P" & x).Value <> "" Then
        
            dblEstWorkHrs = Val(Range("O" & x).Value)
            dblHoursInDay = 8
            If DateValue(Range("P" & x).Value) <= Date Then
            dblNetWorkDays = Application.NetworkDays(DateValue(Range("P" & x).Value), Date)
            dblAvailHours = dblEstWorkHrs - (dblNetWorkDays * dblHoursInDay)
            Else
                dblNetWorkDays = Application.NetworkDays(Date, DateValue(Range("P" & x).Value))
                dblAvailHours = dblNetWorkDays * dblHoursInDay
            End If
            dblPowerToE = 1 + (dblEstWorkHrs / dblAvailHours)
            
            'Lookup values from target row
            Select Case Range("I" & x).Value
                Case "Audit"
                    A = 10
                Case "PHA"
                    A = 7
                Case "Inspection"
                    A = 5
                Case "Other"
                    A = 3
                Case Else
                    A = 0
            End Select
            
            Select Case Range("J" & x).Value
                Case "Regulatory", "Quantitative"
                    B = 3
                Case "Corporate", "Semi-Quantitative", "External"
                    B = 2
                Case "Site", "Qualitative", "Internal", "Any"
                    B = 1
                Case Else
                    B = 0

Excel Facts

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
Re: VBA Error 1004 (Global Range Failed) - Need help identifying problem

Shouldn't it be
Code:
Range("C" & [COLOR=#ff0000]x[/COLOR])
I can see no mention of a variable called r
