Last week I asked the question above and I got a couple great responces.
However, the programming response allowed me to only deal with one column and I need to be able to enter a "Y" into any cell within 2 columns in the worksheet and have it return in the same cell the word "YES". Can someone please help me? It was also suggested that I have the auto fill turned on and I would only have to type the word "YES" once then "Y" and enter after that. This doesn't seem to work in all areas of the worksheet. I end up having to type the whole word in each section of the worksheet. Am I missing a setting or something? |

Right click on the tab of the sheet you wish to have this behaviour.
In the menu click "View Code" In the VBA window that opens paste the following code (from '===== to '=====) ' ========================================== Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim cell As Range Application.EnableEvents = False For Each cell In Target Select Case LCase(cell.Text) Case "y", "yes" cell = "Yes" Case "n", "no" cell = "No" End Select Next cell Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub ' ========================================== I made it so that it will also take "no" for an answer. If you don't want this, remove the lines Case "n", "no" cell = "No" Greetz, Lex |
