Filtering Columns for Unique Values
Printing Multiple Worksheets on a Single Page
In testing new macros that you develop, you may find that the macro fails when it is run and the information in a worksheet is filtered using the AutoFilter. This can happen because the macro may expect that all the information in the worksheet is available, or it may try to update information that is not visible on the screen.
The best solution to this problem is to make sure that the macro turns off the AutoFilter feature. This can be easily done by adding the following line of code near the beginning of the macro:
ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode = False
This ensures that AutoFilter is off, and removes the problems that AutoFiltered data may present for your macro.
