Paste Function in Macro
 
Hi,
I'm setting up a macro that copies information from one
tab in a workbook, and needs to paste it to another tab.
The problem is, I need to set it up so that a pop up
appears asking what cell to paste the data to. Ex:

Copies cells A1

Asks "Where do you want the info?"

User types "C5"

Macro pastes the data to C5.

Any ideas?

Kate,

Use Application.Inputbox with a type of 8. Your user can then select a cell,
using the mouse.For example

Set ans = Application.InputBox("Select a cell", Type:=8)
Msgbox ans.Value
