Default Cell value programming question

Anders,

Here is some worksheet event code to do it. I have allowed for just cell A1,
but you can change that to whatever cell(s) you want.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

Application.EnableEvents = False
On Error GoTo ws_exit
If (Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing) Then
With Target
If (LCase(Right(.Value, 1) = "h")) Then
If IsNumeric(Left(.Value, Len(.Value) - 1)) Then
.Value = Left(.Value, Len(.Value) - 1) / 8
.NumberFormat = "0.0%"
Else
MsgBox "Value is not numeric)"
End If
End If
End With
End If

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Hi!

In my Excel sheet I want to be able to enter two different values in a

cell.
The base value is percent (%) but if I enter the value in hours the value
should be recalculated into percent (%). For example:

100% = 8 hours.

If I enter 20, the cell should leave the value as is.
If I enter 5h (note the 'h' character), the new value should be 62.5 since

5
hours is 62.5% of 8 hours.

Do you understand my question?

I use Excel 2000.

Thanks!
Regards
