What does XLS VB Method 'Range of object' _Global failed mean?

[Guest]

One of our XLS is suddenly getting the above message and I cannot find what
the cause is or even where to look for a list of common VB error messages.

Some VBA code is running and trying to work with a range on the worksheet -
but for whatever reason, it is failing in its task. Perhaps it is using the
selection object, expecting the selection to be a range, and something else
is selected - such as a chart object.

Knowing what the error message means is just a start. You have to find out
what code is running and why it is running - then test that code to see
where the error occurs

Hi
Check for AddIns installed:
Uncheck Addin on by one and close and re-open Excel each time.
Next time Excel opens with no error message you will have identified the
faulty AddIn.
