Sure. You can. Let's create the following two simple macros. One is custom worksheet function, the second on the a subroutine which pops up a msgbox

Function testing(
hello_macr
End Functio

Sub hello_macro(
MsgBox "hello
End Su

In cell B1, you type the following formula
=IF(A1="ABC",testing(),""

Change cell A1 to see the effect

Is it possible to use an IF statement in cell b1 to launch a desire
macro if a1 equals the value specified in the IF statement

ie say IF a1 = "ABC" then the IF statement in b1 would recognise thi
and launch macro1

Does anyone know if this is possible or impossible? It would b
fantastic to learn that its possible!!
