VB code help
Hi, I need help writing a simple code that will take a number between 1-4,
out of a single colum in a specific worksheet and identify it with a word. ie. 1=Breakfast, 2=Lunch, 3=Supper and 4=Night. Here is a little back ground, I wrote a program in my TI calc that stores 1-4 to represent the meal time. I now have taken that Matrix from my calc and opened it as a worksheet to make a graph out of it. on my graph I want the words "Breakfast", "Lunch", ect. spelled out at the corresponding spot. Ive done VB code before but I have kind of forgotten most of it :( Thanks for any help. I have cross referenced this in both programing, and misc excel groups. Gordy |
you need not use vba .you can use spreadsheet formula
your data is from A1 down try this formula in cell in B1 =IF(A1=1,"breakfast",IF(A1=2,"lunch",IF(A1=3,"supp er",IF(A1=4,"night")))) now copy this formula B1 down. chang according to your database if you can use vba use "select" Gordon Byrne wrote in message m...

One way using code
Sub selectmeal() Select Case Range("L1") Case 1: x = "b" Case 2: x = "l" Case 3: x = "d" Case 4: x = "n" Case Else End Select Range("l1").Offset(0, 1) = x End Sub -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "Gordon Byrne" wrote in message m...
