thanks for replying maybe i do need a VB sample.
Maybe I originally explained it To simply :(
Basically instead of hello i really want to print an address on a different
sheet(one address line per cell vertically) but i have about 100 different
addresses.
Example:

IF cell a2 on sheet 1 says "1" then copy the address (cells a1 to a5 on sheet
1) to cells d1 to d5 on sheet 2

if cell A2 on sheet 1 says "54" then copy THAT address (cells a1 to a5 on
sheet 1) to cells d10 to d15 on sheet 2
ANYONES HELP WOULD BE VERY APPRECIATED thanks

You can put a formula in cell A2:

=if(A1=1,"Hello","")

And cell F6 would have the formula:

=if(A1=5,"Hello","")

If you did not want to put formulas into all of the cells you want the
message to appear then you would have to use some VBA. I could provide some
sample codes, but for a new user this might be a little overwhelming.

i have a cell which will have a number put in it.how do i tell exel to paste
to different cells (depending on what number is put in the cell)

EXAMPLE :
if the cell contains "1" then paste "hello" in cell A2

if cell contains "5" then paste "hello" in cell F6

Try:

Sub ian()

Dim r1 As Range
Dim r2 As Range
Dim r3 As Range
Dim r4 As Range

Set r1 = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")
Set r2 = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:A5")
Set r3 = Sheets("Sheet2").Range("D1")
Set r4 = Sheets("Sheet2").Range("D10")

If r1.Value = 1 Then
r2.Copy r3
Else
If r1.Value = 54 Then
r2.Copy r4
End If
End If

End Sub

This has been coded for maximum clarity rather than least lines of code.
