How do I revert cells to blank automatically on spacific days?
Does anybody know of a function, formual, or macro on Excel 2003 that I can
use so that my spreadsheet will automatically erase information in certain cells on certain days? For example: On May 25th I will enter "YES" in cells B5 and B6. I want cell B5 to automatically revert to a blank cell on June 5th and cell B6 to revert to a blank cell on June 11th. There aren't many things that you can NOT do with Excel. Did I find one? |

No. You could put a procedure in your workbook_open event
if date=sheets("yourmastersheet").range("a1") then _ sheets("sheettochange").range("b5")="" -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "Conker10382" wrote in message ...

Don,
Thanks for the speedy reply. Unfortunately I am a master at Formulas and Functions, but Macros are new territory for me. I don't expect you to take up your day explaining to me how to enter a procedure in my workbook_open event (unless it's really simple). Is there a training course offered by Microsoft that could teach me this? When it comes to Excel, I'm willing to learn everything there is to know.
