Anyone know how I can use the inputbox so that the value of the inputbox is
determined by the cell I select with my mouse?

Donald

Not exactly what I should have asked.

I'm trying to return the cell address to the input box when I select a cell
with the mouse.

D.S.

Donald,

Using Application.Inputbox you can select a cell.

This code sets a cell to that value
myCell = Application.InputBox(prompt:="Select a cell", Type:=8)

Hi Donald

Not too sure I understand what you're after. But here's an inputbox that
prompts you to click a cell and returns the clicked cell and its address.
Who knows, maybe you need exactly that one day ?

Sub ClickACell()
Dim R As Range
On Error Resume Next
Set R = Application.InputBox("Click a cell:", _
Default:=ActiveCell.Address, _
Type:=8)
If R Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "cluck cluck"
Else
Set R = R(1)
MsgBox R.Address, , "A fine choice!"
End If
End Sub

Donald,

Just tag .Address to the end.

I think that's what I'm looking for. Forgot about <application.inputbox
