Are you sure you want to do it this way? You would need an event macro to do
this. Also, you might not know if you make a mistake and enter a wrong
number.

Select the sheet where you want this to happen
Right click on the sheet tab and select View code
Copy/paste the code below into the window that opens:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target.Address = "$B$47" Then
If IsNumeric(Target) Then
Target.Value = Target.Value * 7.15
End If
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Return back to Excel - hit ALT Q or click the top "X" to close the window

Try it out.

this still is not working for what I want. I want to type the value in
B47
and return my answer in B47 so if I were to type in 160 in B47 and hit
return
it would be 1144.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

It would be easier if you use a formula to do this.

B47 = some number

Enter this formula in say, C47:

=IF(ISNUMBER(B47),B47*7.15,0)

This is going to be a locked form. Many users are going to use it. It
would
be easier if they could just type in a number amount. This represents
hours
worked. Our min wage is 7.15 an hour.

Thanks

Hi Chey

Then first, move your cursor to that cell.

Start typing:

=160*7.15

and once you've done that, hit the Enter key.

Are you succeeding?
