Invalid outside procedure vba excel - Word и Excel - помощь в работе с программами

For the life of me I cannot figure out why the following code is throwing a compile error with the message «Invalid outside procedure». It is highlighting the error on the starred line below.

Option Explicit

Dim shtThisSheet As Worksheets

**Set shtThisSheet = Application.Workbook("Formatting2.xlsm").Worksheets("Sheet1")**

Sub Formatting()

    With shtThisSheet

        With Range("A1")
            .Font.Bold = True
            .Font.Size = 14
            .HorizontalAlignment = xlLeft
        End With

        With Range("A3:A6")
            .Font.Bold = True
            .Font.Italic = True
            .Font.ColorIndex = 5
            .InsertIndent 1
        End With

        With Range("B2:D2")
            .Font.Bold = True
            .Font.Italic = True
            .Font.ColorIndex = 5
            .HorizontalAlignment = xlRight
        End With

        With Range("B3:D6")
            .Font.ColorIndex = 3
            .NumberFormat = "$#,##0"
        End With

    End With

End Sub

Set statements aren’t allowed outside procedures. Move the Set statement into the Formatting procedure:

Sub Formatting()
    Set shtThisSheet = Application.Workbook("Formatting2.xlsm").Worksheets("Sheet1")
    ...

(I’d move the Dim statement into the procedure as well. I prefer to avoid global variables when possible.)

You can declare variables as global, but you cannot set them outside of a procedure such as a sub or function.

If you need this variable as a global, then it’s best to set it on.
Workbook_Open()

If you do not need it as a global, then move both the declaration and the set statement into your procedure

Хай.
Есть ексель книга, в ней 3 листа. пишу в ней vba скрипт

[vba]

Код

dim foo
dim bar
dim foo1
set foo = worksheets(«Лист1»)
dim …
dim …
sub cool_sub()
используем ранее объявленные переменные foo И bar
end sub
sub second_cool_sub()
используем ранее объявленные переменные foo И bar
end sub

[/vba]
смысл в том, что я хочу вначале один раз объявить некие переменные с именем листов, диапазонов. а далее во всех субах на них ссылаться.
При выполнении какой либо субы вылетает ошибка. Так нельзя?

Присвоение начальных значений переменным выполняется внутри процедур, вне процедуры вы можете только определять константы.
Естественно, вы можете организовать одну процедуру «инициализации» и вызывать её один раз в нужный момент, до исполнения всего основного кода.

Определение переменной через Dim вне кода процедуры даст вам переменную с областью видимости в пределах данного модуля. Если вам нужны «глобальные» переменные, которые будут иметь областью видимости всю книгу — используйте определение через Public, а не через Dim. Определять такие переменные надо только в общих модулях книги.

Для примера:
[vba]

Код

‘ поместите код в любой общий модуль
Public goFoo As Worksheet
Public gcName As String
Dim lcName As String

Sub initVars()
     gcName = «TEST»
     lcName = «test»
     Set goFoo = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(«Лист1»)
End Sub

‘ процедуру можно поместить в несколько разных модулей, и проверять, запуская её два раза подряд
Sub test()
     If goFoo Is Nothing Then
         MsgBox «0. ‘Foo’ is nothing»
         initVars
     Else
         MsgBox «1. ‘Foo’ is ‘» & goFoo.name & «‘» & vbCrLf & _
             «‘NAME’ is ‘» & gcName & «‘» & vbCrLf & _
             «‘name’ is ‘» & lcName & «‘»
         Set goFoo = Nothing
     End If
End Sub

‘ процедуру можно поместить в несколько разных модулей, и проверять, запуская её два раза подряд

Достаточно просто вызвать процедуру в начале каждого модуля, или надо обязательно проверять, чтоб не вызвать второй раз?

Это ПРИМЕР
Вы вообще поняли, о чём речь шла? О том, что переменные, определенные внутри модуля, но вне процедур — должны быть проинициализированы до их использования, отдельной процедурой. И о том, что если вы собираетесь использовать переменные, определенные в каком-то модуле, вне этого модуля — то эти переменные должны быть публичными.
Саму методику как первоначальной инициализации, повторной реинициализации, а также освобождения памяти, плюс стратегию использования переменных — вы должны разрабатывать сами, исходя из решаемых вами задач…

Question
Hello all,

I am trying to convert a string to UTF-8 in VBA-Excel, my final aim is to do URL-encoding to UTF-8.

After a lot of searches I found this code that can help me to implement, it uses the Encoding Class:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.text.encoding.aspx

It starts with:

Imports System
Imports System.Text
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic

But when I put the code example in the excel-VBA editor I get an error «Invalid outside procedure».

Please help, what sould I do?

p.s: if anyone has an example that can implement all the URL encoding to UTF-8 I will be grathfull to.

This is VB.NET code and the classes/methods you want to use cannot be used in VBA directly. What you can do is to look for a replacement which can be used in VBA directly or to create a VB.NET DLL, expose the desired functionality to COM and then
reference the .NET assembly (or more specifically, the TLB) from VBA. However, I’d recomment to take the first of the two ways I described.

Hello elAlladin,
Thanks for your post.
VBA stands for Visual Basic for Applications which is available in Excel, and other office applications.
About VB.net, one can create a stand-alone windows application, which is not possible with VBA.
Check the following link about their detailed difference. Hope it helpful.
http://allfaq.org/forums/t/178686.aspx
http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview/id/217809.html

This forum is for VB.NET questions only (e.g. Visual Basic 2003, Visual Basic 2005, Visual Basic 2008).
For VBA questions,you could post it on VBA forums as bdbodger suggested for better and quicker support.

Best regards,
Liliane

The statement must occur within a Sub or Function, or a property procedure (Property Get, Property Let, Property Set). This error has the following cause and solution:

An executable statement, Static or ReDim, appears at module level.

Static is unnecessary at module level, since all module-level variables are static. Use Dim instead of ReDim at module level. To create a dynamic array at module level, declare it with Dim using empty parentheses.

Note At module level, you can use only comments and declarative statements, such as Const, Declare, Deftype, Dim, Option Base, Option Compare, Option Explicit, Option Private, Private, Public, and Type. The Sub, Function, and Property statements occur outside the body of their procedures, but within the procedure declaration.

Compile Error: Invalid Outside Procedure

Hello, I hope that someone can help with the following problem.

I have created an Excel file on my desktop (in Excel 2007) that contains some basic macro commands. This file is saved to my Dropbox cloud folder.

I also have the same Dropbox cloud folder installed on my laptop.

When I open the same Excel file on my laptop (running Excel 2010) I get a Microsoft Visual Basic screen (that relates to one of the Macros) pop up and the message, ‘Compile Error: Invalid Outside Procedure’.

I can close the Microsoft Visual Basic screen pop ups and carry on editing the file, but each time a make a change the same thing happens again, and I cannot run the macros.

Any help on resolving this irritating issue would be much appreciated.

Re: Compile Error: Invalid Outside Procedure

The code module starts with Private Sub. () and ends with End sub. Check if you have any lines of data outside these 2.

Press Alt+F11 and it will bring up the code.

Re: Compile Error: Invalid Outside Procedure

Thank you for replying. I will try that. I am not very technical with Excel or computing, so please bear with me if I get it wrong. Do I press Alt+F11 when I am seeing the Visual Basic pop-ups?

Re: Compile Error: Invalid Outside Procedure

Close the popup or click on OK button if present. Then while looking at your excel file, press Alt+F11.

Re: Compile Error: Invalid Outside Procedure

ALT+F11 does not bring up anything on my laptop (it just allows me to adjust the speaker volume). Anyway, the visual basic pop-up looks like it is the code, and while I can see ‘End Sub’ when I scroll to the bottom of the code page, I cannot see ‘Private Sub’ anywhere on the page.

The page starts as follows:

‘
‘ Pricecomma Macro
‘ Inserts commas in the price to pay
‘
‘ Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+p
‘

After that, there is all the specific macro code, and right at the bottom of that is, ‘End Sub’.

Re: Compile Error: Invalid Outside Procedure

put Private Sub Test() You can replace Test with anything.

Re: Compile Error: Invalid Outside Procedure

That seems to have sorted it! Thank you very much.
