    Excel macro (compile error. syntax error.) error

    Hi everyone, am new here and this is my first question,


    I have recorded a macro without any issues, but now when am trying to use the macro with the same data I get the (compile error. syntax error.) with the (IF and OR) formula.

    Iam not expert with VBA but I think because the code is a little long and its more than one row so that is happening.

    I have searched many places but I couldn't find the right answer for this specific error. I hope someone can help here........... thanks very much in advanced.

    Below is the code where am getting error

    Hello salar_younis,

    Thank you for adhering to the Forum Rules, and my reminder to you, to do so.

    Please could you upload a sample Workbook, complete with your Code, for us to see how best we may be able to assist you?

    I do see a problem with the formula syntax in your Code, but we would need to compare it with what you have setup in the Workbook itself.

    Thank you,

    Regards.

    Re: Excel macro (compile error. syntax error.) error

    Iam trying to use an IF and OR formula to filter and give a specific value only when the value in the cell is (Number of Results = 1) and it works fine when I use it, but when I record it and try it with the same data it give me this error, when I checked the recorded macro in the VBA there is a difference in the formula.

    Thanks everybody for your reply ...........

    The following formula is the formula that I wrote when I was recording

    =IF(OR(B20="(Number of results = 1)",B19="(Number of results = 1)",B18="(Number of results = 1)",B17="(Number of results = 1)",B16="(Number of results = 1)",B15="(Number of results = 1)",B14="(Number of results = 1)",B13="(Number of results = 1)",B12="(Number of results = 1)",B11="(Number of results = 1)",B10="(Number of results = 1)",B9="(Number of results = 1)",B8="(Number of results = 1)",B7="(Number of results = 1)",B6="(Number of results = 1)",B5="(Number of results = 1)",B4="(Number of results = 1)",B3="(Number of results = 1)",B2="(Number of results = 1)"),"True","F")

    and below is the recorded code by the VBA
