Macro to clear contents of unprotected cells AND drop down box
Jim
you're a legend.
many thanks for your help
the "400" thing comes up because of the merged cells, not the drop downs (i
had drop downs that were in merged cells & i originally mis-identified the
cause of the problem). All sorted now.
its so simple when you know how
apologies for being a luddite
cheers

RE the merged cells you could do this:
Sub a()
Dim Cell As Range
For Each Cell In Range("A3:I59")
If Cell.Locked = False Then
Cell.MergeArea.ClearContents
End If
Next
End Sub
I don't understand the other issue.

| I have the following macro which clears the contents of unprotected
cells on
| a sheet. It stops with the error message "400", however, when it gets to
the
| drop down boxes on the sheet within the selection.
|
| Here is the macro:
|
|
|
| Sub clearunprotectedcells()
|
| Dim cell As Range
| Range("A3:I59").Select
| For Each cell In Selection
| If cell.Locked = False Then
| cell.ClearContents
| End If
| Next
| End Sub
|
|
| Does anybody have a way of modifying the script so it will clear all the
| drop down boxes (they are all unprotected, incidentally!) AS WELL AS the
| unprotected cells?
|
|
| any help gratefully recieved. please do not hesitate to contact if you
need
| more info
|
|
| cheers
