Copying cell values once and then making them static
Hello,
Is it possible to copy values from one cell in to another (automaticly) and then just storing the copied value, not the formula? This is for changing numbers I would like to store dayly. Up to now I just do a copy, paste special, values, but obviously I tend to forget.. Thanks a lot in advance, Mike |

I would customize your tool bar, Remove the standard Paste button and add
the paste values button. You could still paste from the drop down menu, If you only want to do this sometimes you could put together a quick menu to trade the two buttons as needed.

Hmm, I usually use ctrl-v to paste.. But still, I want it to happen
automaticly, something like "=permanent(blah!C33) but unfortunately there is no such function (as far as I know) Thanks anyway! "bj" wrote in message ...

another option would be to make a macro something like
Sub pastval() Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _ :=False, Transpose:=False End Sub in <tools<marcos<macro select options and set your own Control combo unfortunately it has to include shift so that you can't just replace Control V I used Control shift V in my trial "Tsjah" wrote: Hmm, I usually use ctrl-v to paste..

Hmm, sounds good, but what I really want is that when I copy the line to a
new one, it goes and fetches some data once, and then leaves it alone, every time I make a new copy of the line.. Having to press keys in certain cells for that purpose would be too much work.. Thanks again!

A non volital user defined function might do what you want
for Example function exr1() exr1=Cells(1,1) end function if you enter =exr1() in a cell it would enter the current value of A1 in the cell which would not change unless you entered the cell again "Tsjah" wrote: Hmm, sounds good, but what I really want is that when I copy the line to a new one, it goes and fetches some data once, and then leaves it alone, every time I make a new copy of the line..
