Julie,

What should I do to use spin buttons for selecting dates. For instance to
get the months of the year from january to december and all months between.
Also for the day of the month, preferably coupled to the kind of month (if
june was selected the maximum day number would be 30, not 31) etc.

Hi Nigel

i think you might be talking about the spin button control from the
control
toolbar

1. choose view / toolbars / control toolbar
2. click on the spin button control and then click on a cell
3. right mouse click on the spin button control on your worksheet and
choose
properties
4. click in the linked cell field and type a cell reference, e.g. A1
5. on the control toolbar click on the Exit Design Mode icon (top left)
6. type a value (e.g. 5) into the cell you linked to the spin button
(e.g.
A1)
7. and now click on the up & down arrows

hope this helps
Cheers

I saw a presentation yesterday using an Excel Spreadsheet. In it the
presenter changed the value in a cell by pressing an up or down arrow
assign
to that cell.
I have not seen this functionality before and was impressed (maybe
too
easily)- however today I have not been able to find the function in
Excel.
Can anybody help and tell me what this is, and how to use it.

Thanks in advance
