    Retrieve and Update Files

    Hi Team,

    Need assistance to check my VBA macros and find the errors when retrieving and updating files. Please see attached file.

    Thanks,

    Re: Retrieve and Update Files

    Would you offer some explanation about which macro you refer to and where it fails

    Re: Retrieve and Update Files

    Hi Richard,

    The retrieve and update command buttons are not working. I'm thinking it's because I'm using a wrong reference number to retrieve my files. What I want to do is, when I type in the record number in cell A1, the corresponding file on the Database will auto populate on the Form.

    Thanks,

    Emmieshane

    Re: Retrieve and Update Files

    The first lines in Private Sub Retrieve_Click() macro should be

    Dim Rowcount2 As Long
        Rowcount2 = Sheet1.Range("A1").Value
    It's always good practice to Dim Variables first, and refer to sheets with their VBA code name not tab name

    Your code would have worked had you used

    Rowcount2 = Sheets("Form").Range("A1").Value
    but as I said use the sheet codename, the tab name is too easily changed by the user and a macro that uses it will fall over.
