return the row of any selected cell
Namebox not adequate?
Try this UDF if not. Function WhatCell() Application.Volatile WhatCell = ActiveCell.Address End Function NOTE: you must force a recalculation before it will update. F9 key will calculate.

Thanks, Gord, that is a great function and i'm using it but having to
manually recalc is a pain. I'm trying to use conditional formatting in a cell depending on what other cell is active, so the namebox isn't helpful. That is unless there is a way to pull the info from the namebox. "Gord Dibben" wrote: Namebox not adequate? Try this UDF if not.

Maybe some sheet event code?
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) Me.Range("A1").Value = ActiveCell.Address End Sub Gord On Sat, 14 Nov 2009 18:32:01 -0800, kim55 wrote: Thanks, Gord, that is a great function and i'm using it but having to manually recalc is a pain.
