Default How to store additional attributes for a cell

The data is definetly not top sectret and must not be stored persistently.
So this sounds sufficient for me.

Thanks to Harald ...



I need to store different data and I guess, this is the only property I can
(mis-) use.

I tried something like this:

Public Type MyType
somedata As Integer
someother As String
End Type

Private Sub test()
Dim CellData As MyType
CellData.somedata = 42
CellData.someother = "fourty-two"

Sheets(1).Cells(2, 2).ID = CellData
End Sub


But I've got the error:
"Only user-defined types defined in public object modules can be coerced to
or from a variant or passed to late-bound functions"

As I have defined MyType as a Public type, I guess the problem is the
"public object module".

What is a "public object module" and how can I create one ???

Thanks a lot, Thorsten
