I have a workbook and I would like expenses totaled when I am done with
entering expenses on two seperate sheets. So far that works well. When I
enter a negative dollar amount, I have code that turns the line red and
black if the dollar amount is positive. Works OK. When I leave the two
sheets the Deactivate routine runs. When this runs, the font color is
always set to black. On my main sheet, I have some cells that have a red
background and white text. It seems that the Calc_New_Expenses routine runs
each time. How can I prevent the Calc_New_Expenses routine from running
when I select my first sheet? I don't want the text turned black.

Hope this is clear and if not, I'll try to explain better.

Thanks,

Gary
