VBA: Why isn't variable working in named range?

Question

This is part of a larger code, but this snippet isn\'t working. I\'m trying to just set two cells equal to each other, but it\'s not working. When I use the .Range(\"v1_copy

Answer 1

Properly create ranges by using Set and don't refer to worksheets before them. Workbook-scoped ranges don't need to be tied to any worksheet.

Sub copy_paste_test()

    Dim myCopyRange As Range
    Dim myPasteRange As Range

    Set myCopyRange = Range("v1_copy")
    Set myPasteRange = Range("v1_paste")

    Range("v1_paste").Value = Range("v1_copy").Value
    'myPasteRange.Value = myCopyRange.Value

End Sub
