Not sure if this is what you want, but the code is:
If Range("CellName").Value = "True" Then
'Task if True
Else
'Task if False

I have created a macro with a loop which periodically has to check a
spreadsheet cell (Boolean value) in order to branch to different
sub-routines. Since VBA makes a distinction between 'parameter'
(structure)
and 'argument' (value), the parameter definition in the sub-declaration
line
does not allow for its value to be tested, eliciting the error: "argument
is
not optional". How then does one test for a cell's value while in a
macro?
The cell in question toggles between 0 and 1 depending on data coming in
via
DDE. It determines what action should take place in the macro.

I know that the value of an argument can be passed manually to a macro, as
in,

-Call (macro-name) (argument),

however, this is not practical in this case because of the large amount of
data involved. What then is VBA's equivalent for the 'procedural' line:

-If (cell/name) = True Then...../Else...../Endif?

Any suggestions will be appreciated.
