If you are just looking for a row count, you can dispense with cutting down the examined range and just get a count of the visible rows.

Dim Rowz
With objExcel.ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("All")
    With .Cells(1,1).CurrentRegion
        .AutoFilter 19, "=" & ObjectName
        Rowz = .Cells.SpecialCells(12).Rows.Count - 1 '<~~ VBScript might not know that xlCellTypeVisible = 12
        MsgBox Rowz
    End With
End With

I've reduced the xlCellTypeVisible to its value and removed the column A restriction by adding a restriction to the Range.CurrentRegion property. (btw, your original code was MsgBox Rows, not MsgBox Rowz. Probably best to use Option Explicit to avoid typos like that).
