The program will place a 1 into the specified cell (A50) and then the program needs to act as if 'Enter' has been pushed so that the cursor then moves to cell C2, which is the way the program is setup right now but it doesn't have a function to 'Enter' when a 1 is present in the cell. So will your suggestion not work? Thanks! As I said: no, it will not. But by all means, try the suggestion before you discard it -- stranger things have happened... :o) Frankly, I see no viable way to achieve what you're asking for -- AFAIK, Excel does not expose the events required to listen for e.g. cell entry, and it doesn't send change events for each character entered in a cell (not for worksheet cells, that is). Maybe you could listen for Selection Change events, and see if cell A50 becomes selected, but then what? Hmmm, the future doesn't look bright... If you're owning the code base for the ActiveX control putting "1" in cell A50, I suggest you go in and patch the control instead, and make sure it does what it's intended to do. That would probably be the easiest way of solving the problem, and you would avoid trying to jump through hoops in Excel (which seems to be neither easy nor possible?)
