I have a button on Sheet 2 with the following macro.
Code:
Sub Button1_Click()
   Range("B3").Value = Range("B3").Value + 1
End Sub
I want to change this so that cell B3 in Sheet 1 increases by one and not the worksheet with the button. What do I have to add to the code to facilitate this?

Thanks

Bolter LAC,


The following code will add 1 to the present value in worksheet Sheet1, each time the button in worksheet Sheet2 is pressed.


Please TEST this FIRST in a COPY of your workbook (always make a backup copy before trying new code, you never know what you might lose).


Code:
Sub Button1_Click()
   Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B3").Value = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B3").Value + 1
End Sub

Try

Code:
Sub Button1_Click()
With Sheet1
   .Range("B3").Value = .Range("B3").Value + 1
End With
End Sub
