Unfortunately I do not have hard code to give you, but if you look into
events that can occur on a worksheet, then what you would want to do is capture a cell change event. If the change occurs in a cell that is in column D, then check to see if it is a date or contains a date (Depending on what data you expect in the cell. I.e., if you expect someone to type "This will be performed on 01/01/10" then all you want from the text is the date. If that is true, then assign the appropriate "object" (You mentioned a comment, though not sure if you are referring to a little popup comment, or just a string of text like "This is due on 01/15/10") the date of column D incremented by 14 days. I don't recall the function name, but there is a date option where you input the month, day, and year separately and it provides a date code. I recommend this feature rather than just incrementing the calendar day and displaying that as text, because if the date in Col D is the 15th or later and it happens to be in February of a non-leap year then the result would be the 29th of February or later which wouldn't exist in that year. By using the format Year("year of col d") Month("Month of col D") and day("Day of Col D" + 14), Excel will fix the month and year to correspond to this new date. Otherwise if you have a date data type, you simply add 14 to it and store it in the data object necessary for Column F of the same row. Don't know if that helps, there are others that can provide you the straight code, I tend to try to provide the thought process to construct the code, because there are a number of ways to get to the same result.

Any ideas? -- Traa Dy Liooar Jock |
