How about a double-click??
Put this in worksheet code: Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean) Cancel = True Target.Font.Name = "Wingdings 2" Target.Value = Chr(80) End Sub -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200730 "Jeffrey M.

Not getting it to run. Boolean) is on the second line (separate from the
start of the parenthetical expression. Is that intended? "Gary''s Student" wrote: How about a double-click??

"Cancel As Boolean" is a single phrase.

Cancel = True
is the second line. above it is the first line - all one line. REMEMBER worksheet code, not a standard module -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200730 "Jeffrey M. Coffin" wrote: Not getting it to run.

Mouse click automatically enters character into cell.
Navigate to the sheet where you want this to happen.
Right click on the sheet tab and select View Code Paste the code into the right side of the window that opens. Click the "X" to close the VBE and return to Excel. Double click in a cell and see if it works. Biff "Jeffrey M. Coffin" wrote in message ... How does one enter worksheet code?

Mouse click automatically enters character into cell.
Hi All,
Would it be possible to do this on one click by pre-populating the cells with check marks in a white font and then having the color changed to black on the click event? If so, how would one go about creating the code for that to happen automatically? "Jeffrey M. Coffin" wrote: How can I set up a cell to respond to a mouse click by entering a check mark? |

Hi Renee:
Your method would also work. I would still implement it with double-click. The problem with single-click is that the event triggers on ANY selection, not just the mouse. So moving into the cell with the arrow keys would also trip the action. -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200730 "Renee R." wrote: Hi All, Would it be possible to do this on one click by pre-populating the cells with check marks in a white font and then having the color changed to black on the click event?

Minor clarification: there is no Click or BeforeClick event for the
worksheet, so you would use the SelectionChange method which, as you point out, has other triggers. The BeforeRightClick method could be substituted for the BeforeDoubleClick method if the OP doesn't want to click twice. <g __________________________________________________ ______________________ "Gary''s Student" wrote in message ...

right click on the Sheet you want to add the code to and select "View
Code" then the VB window will open and past the following: Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean) Cancel = True Target.Font.Name = "Wingdings 2" Target.Value = Chr(80) End Sub Jeffrey M.
