Excel VBA language difficulties

Question

I have this code and my question is, will it work on English version of excel? I mean local formulas will work on English version of excel? (ORAZ mean AND in my language).

When I put ORAZ it works only on my PC, but on English PC it doesn't, when I put AND it doesn't give error but it doesn't work, any ideas how to help me ?

With Range("$H$6:$FH$50").FormatConditions _
 .Add(xlExpression, xlFormula, "=ORAZ(H$7<=$G$7,(H$7+7)>$G$7)")
With .Interior
    .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
    .ThemeColor = xlThemeColorLight2
    .TintAndShade = 0.799981688894314
End With
End With

Answer 1

I tested in my (Brazilian Portuguese) Excel 2013 and found that, indeed, FormatConditions.Add() expects its formulas in the localized version. It doesn't understand "canonical formulas" like Range.Formula does.

The following should work, even though the method used to translate the formula isn't the most proper ever:

Dim temp As Range

' The temp cell is just for translating our formula.
' Set it to some cell your sheet will never use.
Set temp = ActiveSheet.Range("Z1000")
temp.Formula = "=AND(E$1<=$E$2,(E$1+2)>$E$2)" ' use English formula here

With Range("$A$1:$D$4").FormatConditions _
    .Add(Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:=temp.FormulaLocal)

    With .Interior
        .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
        .ThemeColor = xlThemeColorLight2
        .TintAndShade = 0.799981688894314
    End With
End With

Call temp.Clear ' do away with the temp cell

Note that I also removed the useless xlFormula argument of the .Add() call, and explicited the optional parameters names.

Also, after the fact I discovered that this question is a duplicate of this and this.

Answer 2

The problem is that you are just inserting a text within a cell, so it will only work if excel is set up for that language. Instead you can assign the worksheet function from VBA code like this:

ActiveCell = WorksheetFunction.And(H$7<=$G$7,(H$7+7)>$G$7)

This way Excel will translate the formula to the current language the user has set up.
