i´m developing an xla with a form in which I want to show the contents of
the active cell. which event should I use?

thanks. Oscar

Do you really mean event, or object/property. If event, perhaps you mean the
Worksheet_SelectionChange event. But that event applies to the workbook it
is in, so you cannot add it to the xla. What are you trying to do?

my first aim was to do conect the excel spreedsheet with a COM add-in in
which i could asing the active cell to a textbox in a form but i have the
problem that the form hide when i focus excel, so I decide to develop a xla
with a user which do the same.

Well I still don't really understand what you are trying to do. Ask the user
a question? Display information to the user? Something with a form?

Anyway:

If you want to IDENTIFY the active cell: set theCell = ActiveCell

If you want to GET THE CONTENTS of the active cell: theValue =
ActiveCell.value

If you want to PUT something INTO the active cell: ActiveCell.value =
"something"
