    @Frans Visser

    I did the test on my computer and didn’t reproduce your issue.

    Generally, the Run-time Error ‘13’ occurs when one or more files or processes are required to launch a program that employs the Visual Basic (VB) environment by default.

    Please refer to “Type mismatch (Error 13)” and “Steps to Resolve Excel Runtime Error 13”, methods in the two articles may be helpful to you.
