Macro help
 

I am entering info given to me here on the Forum, I am getting an error
and this line is highlighted.

For Each myCell In myRange.Cells

I don't know VBA or Macro and am trying to figure it out on my own.

These are the formulas I have been given:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

Dim myCell As Range
Dim myRange As Range

Set myRange = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
Set myRange = Me.Range("MustFill")
On Error GoTo 0

If myRange Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Please contact CBrausa at #### to fix the MustFill Range"
Exit Sub
End If

For Each myCell In myRange.Cells
If myCell.Address = myCell.MergeArea.Cells(1).Address Then
If myCell.Value = "" ThenApplication.EnableEvents = False
myCell.Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
Exit For
End If
End If
Next myCell

End Sub

And for the string of cells I need this to apply to:

An alternative way to setting a range is to use a macro:

Option Explicit
Sub testme()
With worksheets("sheet999") '<---
.Range("T4,E5,M5,T7,E8,M8,E14,M14,D16,M16,D18," _
& "M18,L19,M20,N21,U21,N23,B24,K29,B30,L31,B33," _
& "I33,B35,B39,B43,B45,F47,K47,P47,S47,V47,Y47,B 49," _
& "T52,I53,I54,I55,H56,I58,Q50,S55,S56,S57").Nam e _
= "'" & .Name & "'!mustfill"
End With
End Sub

Change the worksheet name to match. (to match what?)

What am I doing wrong?

I don't understand why that line causes an error.

But this note:
"Change the worksheet name to match. (to match what?)"

is an instruction to change Sheet999 in this line:
With worksheets("sheet999") '<---
to the name of the worksheet that has those cells that must be filled in.

Which line. The same one as before or "With worksheets("sheet999") '<--- " If
it is be sure you left the Quotes in the Paranthesis. It would help if you
gave us what the Error said. Also you will need to delete the space in the
line & "T52,I53,I54,I55,H56,I58,Q50,S55,S56,S57").Nam e _ Change Nam e to Name

You may have highlighted the line in red, but in a plain text newsgroup like
this, it can't be seen.

Make sure that there are no extra characters after the "End Sub" line.

Macro help
 

I hit the delete key after End Sub to make sure there was nothing
there.

The line I typed in Red reads:
For Each myCell In myRange.Cells

How do I know if the Macro took? Where do I look? There are two
windows in the VBA and I put:

Option Explicit
Sub testme()
With worksheets("Product Quote") '<---
.Range("T4,E5,M5,T7,E8,M8,E14,M14,D16,M16,D18," _
& "M18,L19,M20,N21,U21,N23,B24,K29,B30,L31,B33," _

End With
End Sub

in one of the windows.
Any way I still get the error message.

now it doesn't. ?????

What is the Macro susposed to do exactly. Why is it only working with cells
T4,E5,M5,T7,E8,M8,E14,M14,D16,M16,D18 etc. What is in Cell M16. We will
need more information to have any clue as to what it does. Also make sure
you scroll down all as far as you can to see if there isn't anything beyond
the End Sub Lines. Something may have gotten lost down there. Did you get
the sub from this forum or from a Co-worker.

Also as a question I have from someone more knowledgable. What exactly does
Option Explicit do. I see that in a lot of code but I've never used it.
Yeah. Well helpfully there is a little information you can provide that will
allow us to give you any suggestions.

Select your worksheet
Edit|goto
type in: MustFill

Are all the cells that you need selected?

I ran the code to name the range, then did this and got all 44 cells. Did you?

"Option Explicit" forces the developers to declare their variables.

If a variable isn't declared, the procedure won't run. It's a nice way to get
the intellisense feature from the VBE and to make sure you don't have small
typos that are very difficult to find.

Macro help
 

I got the formulas from the forum.

I have a form, I want certain cell to be mandatory fill in. They total
44 in all.
I think it was Conditional Formatting I tried to enter this in and it
would only take up to 25, so the forum suggested I do a Macro. Which
is what I am attempting, don't know how but am trying.

For some reason when I get it to work if I make a change, like
correcting some cell numbers, then it doesn't work. Also I'm currious
as to why when it came to the last cell and I tabbed it took me to a
cell that was not on my mandatory cell list. Why?

If you change any of the addresses, you'll have to run that macro that assigns
the name, too.

And what should happen if the all the mandatory cells are filled?

If you go to (say) the first cell of the mandatory range, how would the user be
able to change any value?

===
And if all you want is for the user not to be able to change any cell except
those 44, you can lock all the cells on the worksheet and then unlock these 44.
Format|cells|Protection tab.

Then protect the worksheet. Tools|Protection|protect sheet.

I copied your message and cleaned up the text wrapping problem and inserted the

And it worked fine for me.

Could you try it on a brand new test workbook to see if that works?
