    Run Time error 1004 Method Select of Object Worksheet failed

    With the given Macro I want to select all worksheets in the workbook to then be printed to 1 PDF however it always gives me the run time error 1004 that the selection method didn't work.

    What I don't understand is that when I look at the workbook I can actually see that all sheets where selected, so what is it refering to?

    You don't need to loop through sheets to select them all

    Also, why the (False) in your code?
    Hope that helps.

    royUK the "false" is to keep selecting the other sheets.

    Just 1 tab has 2 smaller charts above the data set.

    You don't need false, try my code.

    If you have Chart sheets use
    [codeSheets.Select[/code]

    Your code refers to a variable - wsAgenda. I can't see where you declare this variable or give it a value. This is causing the error.

    If you used Option Explicit you would be warned of this kind of error.

    Fix that & the code should run, but you do not need false after select & you don't need the Loop to select the sheets.


    To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook. The workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook.

    To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main 'New Post' or 'New Thread' page and not 'Quick Reply'.
    To use the main 'New Post' page, click the 'Post Reply' button in the relevant thread.


    On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled 'Manage Attachments'.
    Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments.


    You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page.
    Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.


    To upload a file from your computer, click the 'Browse' button and locate the file.


    To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page.
    Once you have completed one of the boxes, click 'Upload'.


    Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
    You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
