Im trying to get an input box to pop up when a cell in a range i
selected and in that input box i want the user to be able to enter
number from 1-4 (each number will mean a different colour to format th
cell) and also a letter (any letter it doesnt matter) i then want th
macro to format the cell a certain colour linked to what ever numbe
the enter in the input box and the letter that is entered to be place
in the cell....so for arguments sake the input space on the input bo
could have this typed:-1,b by the user and the macro will for argument
sake format the selected cell say red and then enter the letter b, Bo
Philips kindly posted a macro that works on cases but it doesn
actually do what i need.

Can you help?

Simon,

I have responded to the original. Keep in the same thread, don't open up new
posts as it just confuses the issue. WE do revisit to see how our suggestion
was taken.
