I have a rather large workbook and have one worksheet designed as a "data
entry form" and is used a the entry vehicle for another worksheet which is
my data source for a mail merge database.

I have approximately 55 entry fields in the "data entry form" and they are
broken down into several subareas. Example: Corporate information, Sole
Proprietorship information, Partnership information, subpoena information,
employee information and a couple more. I use a macro that I recorded in
"record macro" to select the unprotected cells for data entry into each of
the different subcategories. Sole Proprietorship requires different
information than the others.

The object of this is to have several cells selected and highlighted to
allow using the tab key to tab between the selected cells instead of row by
row for the entire sheet.

When the worksheet opens, I have all the editable cells change to a light
blue. I recorded this macro myself via the record feature.

I want to have the individual selections, enter sole prop info, enter
corporate, enter partnership info etc, select the appropriate cells that I
can tab through and color them a yellow. I know how to record the macro to
select the various cells and change them to the yellow color, but I also
must have it change the cells back to blue BEFORE it changes the cells
to yellow. The reason for this is to only have the entry cells as the off
color cells for each of the required data entry.

I am unable to get the macro recorder to follow me with the selecting of all
the cells and changing the colors and then selecting and chaging again. I'm
at a loss and hope I've given enrough information for someone.
thanks I am using Excell 200 and 2003
