Loosing Cell Selection
In excel, I selected a cell or range of cells to copy, and
they highlighted, I have code that runs on OnKey event. This code changes the color of a few cells. Because of the coding for coloring the selection of cells for copy are lost. Is there a way to preserve the original cells from loosing focus and selection? |

In 99% of the cases you don't have to move, select, activate anything at all, leaving your
current location intact and your operations invisible. Run this in a 3-or-more sheet empty workbook, Sheet1 active, some cell selected: Sub test() Sheets(2).Range("C3:D6").Interior.ColorIndex = 3 Sheets(3).Range("C12").Value = "Kilroy was here" Sheets(3).Range("C12").Interior.ColorIndex = 19 Sheets(3).Range("C12").Copy Sheets(2).Range("A1") Sheets(2).Range("A2").Value = "You ran me from " & _ ActiveSheet.Name & "!" & Selection.Address End Sub All changes are in sheets 2 and 3. -- HTH.
