I canNOT figure out Visual Basic Language. All I want my macro to do is to
go to the end of the first line, delete the second line, cut the third line,
past the third line in the cell to the right of the cell I'm editing, and
then go to the cell below the cell I was editing.

When I record this macro it only works in the EXACT cells I edited, not in
any other cells.

Oh help, please.

As always post your macro for comments. By "line", do you mean row?

Don, Thank you for responding!!!

No, by line I mean a line of text in a cell which has three lines of text,
separated by "Alt Enter."

I've pasted my macro below. Sorry, I should have thought of doing that from
the start. See where the selection names specific text in the cell and the
ranges are specific cells names? I'm working toward a generic cut and paste
macro that I can use down a column of roughly 120 rows.

try this

Sub findandmovetext()
v1 = InStr(ActiveCell, Chr(10))
v2 = InStr(v1 + 1, ActiveCell, Chr(10))
ActiveCell.Offset(, 1) = Right(ActiveCell, Len(ActiveCell) - v2)
ActiveCell.Value = Left(ActiveCell, v1 - 1)
End Sub

for multiple cells in a selected range

Sub findandmovetextinrange()
For Each c In Selection
v1 = InStr(c, Chr(10))
v2 = InStr(v1 + 1, c, Chr(10))
c.Offset(, 1) = Right(c, Len(c) - v2)
c.Value = Left(c, v1 - 1)
Next c
End Sub
