need help specifing cells that I want info to go in.


Code

'clear the data

Me.fll.Value = ""
Me.a.SetFocus

End Sub

Want must I do to this code to make it work. So that I can tell th
text box to enter the userform info into different cells as I see fit.

The easy answer:

Set ws = Worksheets("") *'I want this to be the active sheet*
becomes
Set ws = Activesheet

The second question depends on what you want to do.

Say you're using the form to add data to a table.

You could add:

dim Destcell as range

.....

'to use the next available cell in column A
'start at the bottom, find the last used cell in column A
'and drop down one row.
With ws
set destcell = .cells(.rows.count,"A").end(xlup).offset(1,0)
end with

Then later...

destcell.Value = Me.a.Value
destcell.offset(0,1).Value = Me.c.Value
'....etc

..offset(x,y) means to move x rows (up, down or 0) from that cell
to move y columns (right, left, or 0) from that cell

So destcell.offset(0,1) is one cell to the right.

======
Watch out for this:

ws.Cells('the column and row/cell name).Value = Me.mmail.Value = ""
I think you meant:
ws.Cells('the column and row/cell name).Value = Me.mmail.Value
(In lots of places)

I am still a bit confused.

you have said that I could use this type of code

dim Destcell as range

.....

'to use the next available cell in column A
'start at the bottom, find the last used cell in column A
'and drop down one row.
With ws
set destcell = .cells(.rows.count,"A").end(xlup).offset(1,0)
end with

Then later...

destcell.Value = Me.a.Value
destcell.offset(0,1).Value = Me.c.Value
'....etc

..offset(x,y) means to move x rows (up, down or 0) from that cell
to move y columns (right, left, or 0) from that cell

So destcell.offset(0,1) is one cell to the right.

I will be using the following cells in my worksheet (with this basic
layout):
b4 j4 p4 s4

c6 g6 m6 s6
c7 d7 m7 n7
c8 d8 m8 n8
c9 d9 m9 n9
c10 m10

I will more than likily simply name these cells so that if their
position moves the name will remain.

So how do I apply these cell ranges to my code so that the required
userform info gets to the place that I want it on my spreadsheet.

Please keep it simple I am still (just) learning vba coding.

Thanx

Are you saying that the value in Me.A always goes to the same cell? And same
for the rest of the controls?

If that's the case, I would define a range name for each of those cells
(insert|Name|define). Then use that in the code.

For example, if Me.A was associated with Cell B4, I would Name B4: CellForA

Then I could use this:

ws.range("CellForA").value = me.a.value
