Why are my variables not being recognized?

[SBF12345]

Greetings,

I have a relatively simple script.

I assign a variant variable using worksheet inputs like:

b = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("WorksheetName").Range("B10").Value

Later in the script I attempt to use the value of b:

Selection.Offset(0,1).Value = b

When I check the related sheets I am receiving no value, as if the contents of B10 was empty.

What could be happening here?

Apologies,

Because I was using Offset multiple times the initial .select from which values were being offset was causing the error. problem solved

Perhaps you are looking at the wrong sheet, or your selection is not what you think it is. Any reference to Selection is to the active sheet at the point where it's made. Have you verified that b is not a zero-length string or empty at the point where the line you posted is executed?

The code was similar to:

Range("A1").Select
Selection.Value = y
Selection.Offset(0,1).Value = b
Selection.Offset(0,1).Value = c

It was writing over the b value, referencing the selected range, not the recent ranges to which values were assigned.
