Default Tagging a Cell

Hello Experts,
I have Excel 97 Pro on Win98SE.

Is there anyway of tagging a cell for VB to recognize it? I want this
tagging work like the Tag Property of VB controls.

Thank you,

Default Tagging a Cell

A few of ways that I know how:

Give the cell a unique form of formatting.
Use the Range.ID property (this is not really for Tagging purposes but
should work)

I also believe there is a way using Input messages of Data Validation,
though I've never tried it.

IIRC, that range.id was added after xl97. (It's in xl2002--I don't think it's
in xl2k--but that's a guess!)

And if you save/close that workbook, that .id property is lost.

Maybe keeping the info in a hidden sheet or a hidden worksheet name would work
for the OP.

I'm running Excel 2000.

You're right!
ID is lost after the workbook closes.

And thanks for your correction (that it was added in xl2k).

(It might sink in if I hear it enough!)
