Hello Experts,

I have an xls worksheet in which users paste a date from another
application.
Once pasted, I want to increase the value by one day (in the same
field).
Is that possible? And if so, how?

alex

enter 1 in a cell copy it
select the cell with the date
paste special add
this should increase the day by one, assuming what was pasted was a date and
not text that looked like a date.

Enter 1 in a cell.

Copy that cell.

Select the date cell.

Paste SpecialAddOKEsc.

Re-format as date.

Thanks (to both) for your help. Your suggestions obviously worked.
Would you happen to know the VBA code to accomplish the same task,
without the extra step?
I'd like users to simply paste in the date and have said date
automatically increase by one.

alex

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If Target.Count 1 Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
With Target
.Value = .Value + 1
.NumberFormat = "dd mm yyyy"
Application.EnableEvents = True
End With
End Sub

This is sheet event code. Right-click on the sheet tab and copt/paste the code
into that sheet module.

Thanks for your help Gord. This code works; however, only when I type
the values and not when they're pasted from another application,
including Excel.

I tested before posting and tested again just now.

Works one cell at a time as you paste a date to each cell.

Are you trying to paste a range of cells?
