Have the user enter 75%

it will be stored as 0.75 and displayed as 75%

or

If you preformat the range as %, then the user can just
enter 75 and it will
be interpreted correctly.

Bob, I entered the code and tried it out on a users
machine. The user still has to enter a decimal, but
what
shows on screen in the cell is the percentage. Is this
the correct outcome for the added code? If so, okay -
I'll have to educate users.

Phil,

Sub Auto_Open()

'This code puts the cursor in cell A1 in all
worksheets,
'and opens the workbook on the "Scorecard" worksheet.
'It also operates when worksheets are hidden.

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

For Each ws In Worksheets
If ws.Visible = xlSheetVisible Then
ws.Select
Application.GoTo ws.Range("A1"), True
ActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines = False

Stephen, Thanks for the quick reply. Could we
modify
the
following Auto_Open Sub to automatically make auto
percent
entry setting?

Sub Auto_Open()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

For Each ws In Worksheets

ActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines = False
End If
Next

Worksheets("Scorecard").Select

Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

Hi Phil,

In Excel 2000, I have created a worksheet for use
on
a
network. Certain cells (formatted percentage)
have
data
values that create an area chart. On my screen, I
enter "75" in the source cell: "75%" shows on
screen,
and
the chart plots a value at 75% (scale maximum is
100%).
However, other users have to enter ".75" to make
things
work right.

Is there a way to have users enter a whole number,
vs a
decimal?

Tools Options Edit Enable automatic percent
entry
