Can an Excel 97 subroutine be suspended while the user edits a cell?

My code would work like this:

Set MyRange = [5 adjacent cells]
For Each Cell in MyRange
Insert a default value
Place Excel into EDIT mode
Select the entire cell contents 'For deletion/editing.
Wait for the User to:
Accept the default [OR] modify and accept it.
End Wait
Next Cell

I cannot figure this one out. Sendkeys executes last in subroutine and
thus is unacceptable.

I prefer not to use UserForms or InputBoxes.

Thanks, Tom.

I appreciate your [to the point] answers and your time.

If I may ask, what would you do, in this case?


My outlook is to userforms with placement and size to match the user's
screen resolution and ActiveCell.Top, ActiveCell.Left.

Do you agree?


Thanks,
David D.
