How do I...

...tell Excel to run a macro based on information entered into a specific cell? Eg if user enters N run the macro, if they enter Y do nothing.

Thanks in advance!

I'm assuming that the value Y/N value will go in cell "A1".

Right click on the sheet tab and select "View Code".

Insert this code:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

  If Target.Address = "$A$1" And UCase(Target.Value) = "N" Then

    MsgBox "Hi"

  End If

End Sub

Change the 'Target.Address = "$A$1"' to whatever cell you need it to be.
Change the 'msgbox "hi"' line to the name of the macro you want to run.

HTH

Thanks very much, this works fine! Now it does what I want is there a way to get the cell selector to move two cells to the right after the macro has run? For example, I put an N in A1, the macro runs, then I want the cell selector to move to cell C1.
