using ranges to determine input
This relates to a triple yahtzee score sheet. Each player, anywhere
from 2 to 5 players has a range of cells where their scores are recorded (39 scores per game). What I'm trying to do is have excel first ask how many players, and then determine the order by which range gets a value entered first, second, etc. and then use that order for the rest of the game. Each time it is the next person's roll, the score can only be recorded in their range. I hope this is clear. The attached .xls file has a color for each player. So if there are two players, green and yellow for example, then whichever range the first score gets entered, the order of the game is determined and each time it is the next persons roll, the only place a score can be entered is in their range. If yellow goes first, then the order is yellow, green, yellow, green, etc. until the game is over. After a score gets entered in the yellow range, then the only place a score can go is in the green range, after that score is entered then the only place a score can go is in the yellow range, and so forth. If you could also email me directly with any suggestions you might have I would appreciate it as I'll be travelling for the next few months and usually have to scrounge up access wherever I can. Thanx! --- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com/ |
