I posted the following in another newsgroup.
I only got so far with answers and its been a few days waiting. I decided I should try another newsgroup and found this one. I'm hoping someone could help me out... I have a changing value in cell K7 which will result in a random number (already generated - no assistance needed here) with a letter for my BINGO game. So B1-B15, I16-I30, etc all the way to O75. I have a range of numbers to match the randomly generated number in cells B1 to P5. What I would like is when any cell in B1-O75 is equal to the value in K7 then the cursor, cell highlight or whatever, auto selects that matching cell. Right now I need to select that matching cell, then select a menu item I call Next Turn, and then it will generate a new number. But I have to do this with each and every turn and ... well that's 75 turns to do the same thing repeatedly (CellNextTurn,CellNextTurn, and so on). If someone can give me a script that will auto select the identical cell, then it only be Button, Button, Button. Thank you in advance G From: ? Does it need to be selected for you, or just highlighted? If the latter, you could use conditional formatting. Answer: It needs to highlight the cell that matches K7 From: Don right click sheet tabview codeinsert thismodify to suitSAVE Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Set myrange = Range("b1:b4") If Target.Address < "$D$1" Then Exit Sub If Intersect(Target, myrange) Is Nothing Then myrange.Find(Target).Activate End If End Sub Answer: I see what this does and I actually understand it, however its selecting the cell the range is being compared to. I need it to select the cell in the range that matches what currently is my target. Is there something we can change here to make that work? Thanks again, G New Updated Question: I'm going to approach my BINGO question from another angle here... If I know what cell will have B1 and which will have B-I-N-G-O through to O75... Then could I not do a statement or script or something where it says something like If K7=B1 then select B1 but if K7 = P5 then select P5 ? I know I would probably need to do this for all of them... and you guys are great with the help, but what I've been given isn't working the way I need it to... Thanks in advance G I never did get an answer for this. Can someone help me out? Thank you G |
