Vba Syntax to Excel Spreadsheet Error

[penbeacho]

I have the following code which does insert formulas in the right location yet when inserting it changes the formula syntax. The actual error is #NAME? ,The code is as follows:

When in the spreadsheet, the syntax is changed to:

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP('A2',Sheet1!AE),5,FALSE))=TRUE,$B:$B,VLOOKUP('A2',Sheet1!AE),5,FALSE))

Notice the quote/Tick marks around the A2 and Parenthesis around E. I tried Modifying the code but my changes wouldn't work. I feel like this is something simple im overlooking.

Any help is appreciated.

You should use '.Formula = ', not '.FormulaR1C1 = '

WOW!!!! Cant believe I overlooked that. I guess I was more focused on the formula syntax than the actual command itself.

Thankyou !!
