Hi Berend,
This will trap the input and process each letter. You will need to fill out
the action to be taken
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim i As Long
On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range("A1:H10")) Is Nothing Then
With Target
For i = 1 To Len(.Value)
Select Case LCase(Mid(.Value, i, 1))
Case "a": 'handle a
Case "b": 'handle b
Case "c": 'handle c
'etc.
End Select
End If
End With
End If
ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.

Hi,
I have a Excel sheet in which text is to be typed by the user. The text
must be broken down in single letters, which the program recognises.
For example:
User types: Fox
Program:
1: Take first letter
2: Check what letter it is
3: Use letter in script (for example a if then statement)
4: Take next letter
5: Repeat steps 2 to 5 untill all text is analysed
Can anyone tell me how to do this? The breaking down of the text, that
is.....
Thanks beforehand,
Berend Botje
