Instead of having code like

write value to sheet

use code like


if value chosen is not in acceptable limits then
msgbox value chosen is not in acceptable limits
else
write value to sheet
end if

Tom,

That is why I'm on this site - I'm no programmer and can't work out how to
validate the user's choice. Any constructive help would be appreciated.

Can't your macro validate the data?

Hi,

I have created macros to update cost centre spreadsheets from a range
of
data. The macros run from a form that has 12 options (1 for each
month)
and
I want to display a warning message to the user to ensure that they
have
selected the correct month.

The macros currently enter the number relating to the month chosen
into a
cell on one of the sheets. I have used the validation option to give
a
warning for any entry put into the cell, but data entered by macros
does
not
cause the warning to display.

Can anyone offer a solution to this problem please?

Thanks,

Ewan.
