Also you may want to place this code in Thisworkbook module.

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Sheets("yoursheetname").Range("C8").Interior.Color Index = xlNone
End Sub

Are you sure C8 is blank?

No extra <space" or?

Did you place the code into Thisworkbook module?

Tested with C8 and works fine at this end.......Excel 2003

Thanks Gord for your Valued Reply.

But, this code is not working. I just changed the cell range from "A1"
to "C8". And kept the cell "C8" blank. But, it didnot filled it with
black colour. It printed it blank (colourless).

Thanks in Advance.

Right-click on the Excel Icon left of "File" and select "View Code"

Copy/paste the above into that module.

Edit the Range("A1") to suit.

Alt + q to return to the Excel window.

Thanks Gary and Gord for your valued reply.

But, what I want is like this:
I have created a sheet, which I will give to the users to enter their name.
I dont want users to take its print without entering their name and then
manually hand-write their name.

They should enter their name and then only take its print. So, I want that
if the user does not enter anything in his name field (cell), then that
particular cell should be printed black.

I hope you exactly understand my query.

Thanks in Advance!

Regards,
Denis

Before printing:

Format Cells... Patterns Color
and pick the same as the font color

After Printing, reverse this.

You can do it manually, or with a macro.

I have created a simple table based form in Excel.
I want some cells to be printed fully black if nothing is entered in it.

Is there any way, I can do this?

Thanks in Advance!
