Forcing users to enter value based on criteria
Hi Everyone and Happy New Year,
I have created a simple worksheet so users can record the time they spend on certain task. However I need help with the following: If B5 is not blank then the user should be prompted to select a value from C5. What formula/function should I use to make this work? Many thanks, Andy |

Perhaps in say, D5:
=IF(B5="","","Select value from C5") -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "adi" wrote in message ...

Put this macro in worksheet code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Intersect(Target, Range("B5")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub End If Do While Range("C5").Value = False Range("C5").Value = Application.InputBox("Enter C5 Value:") Loop End Sub Once the user has entered data in B5, they are prompted to enter a value for C5. REMEMBER worksheet code, not a standard module if you are not familiar with VBA, see: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm -- Gary's Student "adi" wrote: Hi Everyone and Happy New Year, I have created a simple worksheet so users can record the time they spend on certain task.
