Hi,

I am using excel 2003 and have a workbook with 2 sheets and the code below
in "ThisWorkbook".

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
Worksheets("Sheet1").Select
If Range("A1") = "" Then
Cancel = True
Range("A1").Select
MsgBox ("Type in the missing data...")
GoTo ExitNow
End If
ExitNow:
End Sub

If I leave cell A1 on Sheet1 blank, then click on Sheet2 and try to print,
it will place the cursor onto Sheet1 cell A1 and if I immediately type a
value and click enter, the value disappears from Sheet1 cell A1 and appears
in Sheet 2 cell A1.

Can anyone help?

You can only type in a value AFTER you click OK to clear the message
box.
The moment you click OK, you are on the way to ExitNow and back to the
activesheet which is Sheet2
Your input value appears in sheet2 accordingly.

Cassie,

Your code can be simplified to that below but I can't see how your code (or
mine) would cause what you describe. Do you have any other code in the
workbook?

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
If Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1") = "" Then
Cancel = True
Application.Goto Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")
MsgBox ("Type in the missing data...")
End If
End Sub

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
