Hi guys,

please help, i thought i had it working, but i just got an error and got instantly sick to my stomach


I have a document that distributes roles to worksheets based on a unique identifier... this works fine until i get a '1004' run time error.

I have 10 columns though 1 of the 10 column could have up to 500 characters... from what I understand when you are parsing strings the max is 255 which is what could be causing the 1004 error.

Is there a way to get around this.. either by a macro looking at a particular work sheet (in this case it is 'Report') and if there is a cell that is greater than 250 chars to reduce to 249?


hope you can help guys, thanks soooo much,

thanks,
