val() is not work in my code

[Mr. GetRight]

wrote the below code and i'm haveing problems when i get to:
"
StrAStart = CInt(Val(Left(SltArea, StrM)))
StrAEnd = CInt(Val(Right(SltArea, strL - StrM)))
"
part of my code, it looks like it is when i get to Val. When the program
gets to these lines it doesn't put anything for variables StrAStart and
StrAEnd. Varaible SltArea will contain something like "$A$35:$J$43". I am
trying to get the starting, and ending row that was pasted by program. If you
know a way to fix my code to make this work or even a better way to get the
info i need, it would be greatly appreciated.

Try this:

Dim strRng As String
strRng = Split(SltArea,":",2)
StrAStart = strRng(0)
StrAEnd = strRng(1)

Instead of

StrM = InStr(SltArea, ":")
strL = Len(SltArea)
StrAStart = CInt(Val(Left(SltArea, StrM)))
StrAEnd = CInt(Val(Right(SltArea, strL - StrM)))
