selecting cells with an input box
Hello,
I have a program for which I need to have the users select the cells they want. Right now I am using: Set rCells = Application.InputBox _ (Prompt:="Select the drawings you wish to appear on the Drawing Acknowledgement", _ Title:="Create Drawing Acknowledgement", Left:=558, Type:=8).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible) This works great, except that if the user clicks the start button and then needs to scroll down to select cells that they want, the program adds all the cells (starting on the first cell of the page, A1) that the user did not select. Hopefully this is a dumb error on my part, thanks, Jordan |

selecting cells with an input box
Sorry, I had the feeling I should have expanded on that. "Start Button"
refers to the forms button that has my macro program assinged to it. Just a simple click object button.

selecting cells with an input box
Jordan,
In your situation, are they clicking this Start button after the input box is displayed? And is this Start button the one that runs the macro with the Inputbox? I couldn't reproduce this situation. -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Jordan" wrote in message ... Sorry, I had the feeling I should have expanded on that.

selecting cells with an input box
Good Morning Bob,
Yes, clicking on the Start button runs the macro with the Inputbox. It's a really wierd deal. On on of my computers I don't even need to scroll down for this error to occur. I'm wondering if this might partially be a setting issue. Still, I don't know why it would add cells to rCells that wern't inputed into the input box. Any thoughts? If you like, I wouldn't mind sending you the workbook, it doens't have any confidential information or anything like that on it, so it wouldn't be a big deal on my end.
