Default Auditing cells: Find "dangling"cells

Sige,

Try;

Dim ranCell As Range

For Each ranCell In Selection

On Error Resume Next

Debug.Print ranCell.Dependents.Count

If Err.Number = 1004 Then

ranCell.Interior.Color = vbBlue

End If

Err.Clear
On Error Resume Next

Next ranCell

'Dependents' seems to return an error rather than zero on the count - which
is a bit annoying - I'm sure someone will chime in if there is a better way.

Regards,

Chris.

Hi There,

It is the time of the year again ...where I receive a ton of
spreadsheets with "massacred" templates. Finding "constants in
formulas" is an incredible tool by Norman Jones which solved already a
lot of my misery!

Here is another issue:
-I would like to find the cells on my active sheet / selection that are
"not used". Meaning that they do not serve as input or further
calculation ...
I.e. they do not have dependents.
-Possible to trigger also those cells which have dependents in other
sheets in the active wbk


Best Regards, Sige
