GETTING DATA ON TO SHEET2
 

Hi Tim,
Are you getting an error?
Did you record a macro, you don't need to make a selection,
and to process only one cell or even one column doesn't seem
to warrent a macro when you can use a worksheet function
to keep things up to data instantly.

Wouldn't simply putting a formula into Sheet2!d1 suffice?
=IF(sheet1!A1=0,,sheet1!A1)

Tim,

If Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")<0 then
Sheets("Sheet2").Range("D1")=Sheets("Sheet1").Rang e("A1")
End If

This should work regardless of which sheet you are on.

regards,
Don

When I put this in it comes up in red - syntax error, but I have checked
carefully and retyped it twice - any idea what could be wrong - sheets are
indeed named sheet1 sheet2 and sheet3. Is that a reserved word [sheets]? I
am running mso2000 excel premium vers 9.0.2720

No Dave, I am trying to write a gen ledger program and it needs to be in vba
for other users to use by buttons on menu. I could do what you say but it
would be too slow and beyond the scope of the inputters. I understand what
you are saying 'keep it simple'

Looks like you were trying to mix syntax.

Sub copyover()
If Range("Sheet1!A1") < 0 Then
Sheets("sheet2").Range("d1") = Sheets("sheet1").Range("a1")
'or
'[sheet2!d1] = [Sheet1!a1]
end if
End Sub

Try copying mine or the other Don's instead of typing it. The syntax is
correct.
