Excel VBA variable type

I want to set a sheetname within an excel workbook as a variable but can't work out which type of variable it should be set as.

RE: Excel VBA variable type

Hi Anna

Thanks for your question

I am assuming you are refering to the name of a worksheet, rather than the worksheet object itself.

A worksheet's name is always a string. This is because it is the worksheet's key property which is used to identify it.
Thus, your variable should be a string.

Regards
Stephen

VBA tip:

Count the Rows and Columns in a Selection

If you need to count the number of rows or columns in a worksheet use the following code:

Selection.Rows.Count - Returns the number of rows in the selection

Selection.Columns.Count - Returns the number of columns in the selection

Selection.CurrentRegion.Rows.Count - Returns the number of rows in the current region of the selection
