    From my vague memory there is a limit of 255 characters

    Hi Adam,

    My guess is that the text string starting with "H12:..." is longer that 256 characters, but I may be wrong.

    Re: VBA Code Error

    Hi Marvin,
    That is also my thoughts, except my number is wrong(Should be 256).
    I also think that
    H12:Z12 -multi selection may also show an error.

    Re: VBA Code Error

    Hi Adam, Try this...

    Dim MyString as String

    MyString = "Stuff"
    MyString = MyString & "More Stuff"

    Then in your Range("H12:......") put Range(MyString)

    See if that works for you...

    @AB33, I couldn't find an answer for us about 255 or 256 on the net.

    It is 255 I believe. I will suggest using Union method:
