You seem to have already worked out the key elements of the following approach:

If Intersect(R, C) Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "No intersect"
Else
MsgBox "Intersect"
End If

PS: What does E.I. signify?

" wrote in message ...
i have a range (A1:C10) set to a variable "R" and i have a
cell set to a variable "C" (First E.I. B5, Second E.I. D5)

i need to know if C is within R

i have tried
Set NewC = Application.Intersect(R, C)

First E.I. it works good, no probs
But on the second E.I. NewC = nothing

Currently I have an error handler working with the cell
that is out side the range but their has to be a better
way to do this any ideas?
