How do you run that macro when you're in edit mode, Dave? Aren't macros
disabled then? The only way I recall "achieving" that was with a Windows
API callback ontime function. I think it crashed Excel<g.

| When XL is in editing mode, certain menu items are disabled. You could
check for
| the enabled property of them.
|
| E.g.:
|
| Sub Editing()
| If Application.CommandBars(1).FindControl(ID:=23, _
| recursive:=True).Enabled = False Then
| MsgBox "Editing"
| Else
| MsgBox "Not editing"
| End If
| End Sub
|
|
| =========
| Maybe you can check that status before your code does anything.
