[RESOLVED] [Excel 2k3 + VBA] Runtime error '1004' Cannot change part of a merged cell

[hackedman]

Hi,

each time I try to apply template format with data from access I receive this message: Runtime error '1004' Cannot change part of a merged cell

and it points to this line:

ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(x, y), Cells(x + Int(c / 50), y + 6)).Clear

and this is the complete section of the code:

'*********************************************************************
'* INPUT top left cell of the merge
'* INPUT "[ROWS]#[COLUMNS]" offset to be merged (void = 0)
'*********************************************************************
Public Sub str_merge(row, col, instructions)
Dim x, y As Integer
Dim q As Variant
q = Split(instructions, "#")
y = q(UBound(q))
If Not q(0) = "" Then x = q(0)
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(row, col), Cells(row + x, col + y)).MergeCells = True
End Sub
Public Function memo_merge(x, y, c)
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(x, y), Cells(x + Int(c / 50), y + 6)).Clear
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(x, y), Cells(x + Int(c / 50), y + 6)).Interior.color = RGB(255, 255, 255)
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(x, y), Cells(x + Int(c / 50), y + 6)).Borders.LineStyle = True
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(x, y), Cells(x + Int(c / 50), y + 6)).MergeCells = True
memo_merge = x + Int(c / 50)
End Function

How to fix it, please?
Best Regards

fixed by changing:

ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(x, y), Cells(x + Int(c / 50), y + 6)).Clear

to

 
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(x, y), Cells(x + Int(c / 50), y + 6)).Value=""
