Hi

I get the error Subscript out of range in the below code. What is wrong with it? Thank you




Option Explicit

Sub test()


Dim i As Integer



For i = 1 To 6
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Cells(i, 1).Value = Workbooks(2).Worksheets(i).Name


Next

End Sub

There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
Hi

Thank you. Yes Workbooks(2) have 6 shsets


QUOTE=AlphaFrog;4929414]Does Workbooks(2) have 6 worksheets?

Does it list the names of any sheets before it errors?[/QUOTE]

My guess is that you misinterpret which is Workbook(2).
Add this line in this position:
Code:
For i = 1 To 6
Debug.Print Workbooks(2).Name               '<<< ADD THIS LINE
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Cells(i, 1).Value = Workbooks(2).Worksheets(i).Name
Next

Then, while in vba debug mode, open the "Immediate" window (press Contr-g), anche check is the printed name is "your" Workbooks(2)

Bye
