type mismatch error

[Ewing25]

Im getting a type mismatch error on this code and im not sure why.

Im getting the error on the "Set AllCells" line.

Sub RemoveDuplicates()
Dim AllCells As Range, Cell As Range
Dim NoDupes As New Collection


Set AllCells = Sheet1.Range("H2:H1000") And Sheet5.Range("D21000")
On Error Resume Next
For Each Cell In AllCells
NoDupes.Add Cell.Value, CStr(Cell.Value)

Next Cell
On Error GoTo 0
For Each Value In NoDupes
On Error Resume Next
UserForm3.ListBox1.AddItem Value

Next Value
UserForm3.Show
End Sub


Thanks!
Alex

You can't use "And" to combine ranges. Instead, use "Union".

Replace
Set AllCells = Sheet1.Range("H2:H1000") And Sheet5.Range("D21000")
with
Set AllCells =
Application.Union(Sheet1.Range("H2:H1000"),Sheet5.Range("D21000"))

You can't do this:
Sheet1.Range("H2:H1000") And Sheet5.Range("D21000")
"Union" is usually the way to do it, but not across sheets. Anyway you don't
need to union them, try

For Each Cell In Sheet1.Range("H2:H1000")
NoDupes.Add Cell.Value, CStr(Cell.Value)
Next Cell
For Each Cell In Sheet5.Range("D21000")
NoDupes.Add Cell.Value, CStr(Cell.Value)
Next Cell

HTH. Best wishes Harald

the set statement will never work because you can't combine ranges from two
different sheets. Below is the correct format in you had two columns on the
same shet

Set AllCells = Union(Sheets("Sheet1").Range("H2:H1000"), _
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("D21000"))

Ok well heres what im trying to do.

I have a column in sheet1 named Trips and a column in sheet5 named trips i
want to take the data in both calumns and have it displayed in a listbox when
the button is selected.

Do you have any idea how i can do that?

its saying

Run time error 1004
method union of object _application failed

I didn't notice your sheet references. All cells in a Range object must be
on the same sheet. A Range cannot span multiple sheets.

so, perhaps you can link the data in sheet 5 to another, not used, not
seen, not printed area of sheet 1 - like waaaaaaay off in column FA or
something. then the ranges would be on the same sheet..........
just an idea

Or just use Harald's suggestion.
