Excel VBA: Can't get a match, error "Unable to get the Match property of the WorksheetFunction class"


Use the Application.Match function which allows for better ability to trap errors. When using the WorksheetFunction.Match, when a match is not found, it returns an error, which is what you're experiencing.

If Not IsError(Application.Match(Cells(e, 1).Value, myrange, 0)) Then    'Do stuff when the match is found    Cells(e, 3).Value = "Yes"Else:    Cells(e, 3).Value = "No"End If

You could also potentially use the CountIf function:

If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(myRange, Cells(e,1).Value) > 0 Then    Cells(e,3).Value = "Yes"Else:    Cells(e,3).Value = "No"End If

Neither of these approaches requires you to use the m1 variable, you can assign this variable within the True part of the If/Then statement, if you need to identify where the match is found.


Just as another option, this can also be done by putting the formula below in cell C2, and dragging it down to C23.

=IF(COUNTIF($A$2:$A$23,B2)>=1,"YES","NO")
