Puting data from an input box in two cells
 

I have an input box that askes the user for a figure. I want that figure
to go into the active cell and also into another cell (O2), but I don't want
to "Select" the other cell. I want the active cell to remain where it is
because the macro does some other things from that location (offsets etc.)

Here is where I get the figure....

AmtPaid = InputBox("Amount Paid?")
ActiveCell = -AmtPaid ' Negative Amount

Now I want to take whatever is input there and also put it into cell O2
(without actually selecting O2)

Thanks for any help you great guys can give me.

AmtPaid = InputBox("Amount Paid?")
ActiveCell = -AmtPaid ' Negative Amount
Range(")2") = -AmtPaid ' should do it.

Pardon the typo in the first response. I tried it and it worked for me.

AmtPaid = InputBox("Amount Paid?")
ActiveCell = -AmtPaid ' Negative Amount
Range("O2") = -AmtPaid ' should do it.
