    Using CELL function...

    I am trying to call the Excel CELL function using VBA from the workbook that is running the macro. I'm assuming I just have a syntax error, but I can't figure it out. I am using Excel 2013.

    There is absolutely no point to that. You can just use the FullName property of the relevant workbook in VBA.

    Thanks Rorya! I will try that instead. However, just out of curiosity, why doesn't the above statement compile/run?

    Because the WorksheetFunction object doesn't have a CELL method, for much the reason I suggested - i.e. there is no need for it.

    Hi bvwalker,

    Not all normal excel functions are supported using the VBA worksheetfunction method. I don't think "Cell" is supported. See:
    https://support.microsoft.com/EN-US/help/213660

    See a list of all the supported functions at:
    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/off...ksheetFunction
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.
