    Variable Assignment

    Quick question,
    I have a variable assigned as a Public integer:

    Public NIG As Integer

    which is assigned as an input from the user:

    NIG = InputBox("Please enter the Non Investment Grade limit for filter(deafult BBB-)", "NIG Limit", 610)

    I wish to use this in a logic argument:

    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
    "=COUNTIF(Portfolio!R[-28]C[5]:R[591]C[5]," >= " & NIG &)/COUNT(Portfolio!R[-28]C[5]:R[591]C[5])%"

    But this is returning a "TRUE" - I was expecting a percentile figure!

    Any ideas?

    Cheers.

    try formatting the cell as percentage, as "True" is just boolean for 'not-zero'.

    also try removing the % at the end of the formula.

    Re: Variable Assignment

    ah, just realised you put the quotes in the wrong place, try this:
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
    "=COUNTIF(Portfolio!R[-28]C[5]:R[591]C[5], >= " & NIG & ")/COUNT(Portfolio!R[-28]C[5]:R[591]C[5])%"

    or maybe this (if the >= clause needs to be in quotes):
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
    "=COUNTIF(Portfolio!R[-28]C[5]:R[591]C[5], "" >= " & NIG & " "")/COUNT(Portfolio!R[-28]C[5]:R[591]C[5])%"
