Join them; it only takes a minute: compile error expected end sub Sign up Why is VBA saying that it has found an 'ambiguous name'? up vote 2 down vote favorite When compiling some code (declarations shown below) I get the error message 'Compile Error: Ambiguous name detected. SixTables'. I have looked here https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/817411 and elsewhere but cannot find anything that matches my problem. What appear to be the most common causes of this error, declaring two variables with identical names or giving the same name to a function and the sub that it is called from, do not apply. And yes, I know I could just change the name to something the system was happy with, but (1) I wouldn't learn what I'm doing wrong, and (2) I chose that name for a reason - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20255141/why-is-vba-saying-that-it-has-found-an-ambiguous-name it fits its purpose exactly :-) Option Explicit Dim ArmOfService As Byte Dim CharacterNumber As Long Dim CurrentTerm As Byte Dim DecorationRollMade As Byte Dim DecorationRollNeeded As Byte Dim DiceSize As Byte Dim GenAssignment Dim GenAssignmentSwitchInt As Byte Dim GenAssignmentSwitchOff As Byte Dim iLoopControl Dim jLoopControl Dim kLoopControl Dim LineIncrement As Integer Dim lLoopControl Dim Merc(100) Dim NoOfDice As Byte Dim OfficerPromotion(63 To 78) As Byte Dim PromotionRollMade As Byte Dim PromotionRollNeeded As Byte Dim Roll As Byte Dim SkillColumn Dim SixTables Dim SpecAssignmentSwitchEnd As Byte Dim SurvivalRollMade As Byte Dim SurvivalRollNeeded As Byte Dim TechLevel As Byte Dim Temp As Integer Dim Term As Byte Dim TestCount Dim UnitAssignment Dim WhichTable Dim Year As Byte EDIT: I'm so embarrassed that I can hardly bring myself to explain what the problem was. I knew I hadn't duplicated a name, since I was only using it once - as a function! Thanks all for your help, I'm now going to go and hide my face in shame... vba excel-vba share|improve this question edited Nov 28 '13 at 18:35 asked Nov 27 '13 at 23:30 Kevin Pooley 39127 I assume that changing the name does solve the problem per your post? –Kairan Nov 27 '13 at 23:32 Do you have a code module with that name? –Tim Williams Nov 27 '13 at 23:33 Kairan. Yes it does. –Kevin Pooley Nov 28 '13 at 0:33 Clearly, from the code youve supplied
