I have got a forecast that has data entered into it
monthly, and due to
the size of it, I'd like to be able to provide an input
form. I have another
file set up this way that someone else created, but I
can't reverse engineer
it as it is all protected and has hidden worksheets
(rats!). What I'm trying
to accomplish is to A) set up a custom toolbar with only
Input, Save, Print
Preview, and Print available; and B) establish pop-up
boxes that will allow
entries for the quantities of parts received, parts
shipped, and the value
of the parts shipped. Ideally, I'd like it to be like an
Access Form, but
linked to the correct cells in my Excel file to populate
them monthly with
the user input. This would also be a great way to prevent
users from
accidentally ruining my formulae. Any advice would be
much appreciated.
