The concept seems so simple, but I can't find it anywhere! I just need a y to automatically show up in a cell when the cell is clicked on.
That is all. :)
Thanks in advance!

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
Target = "y"
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Thanks for the fast reply!
I'm probably just being thick, but Its not working... it may be because I didn't tell you which column it is in. The y entries will need to be made in column A.

That's not why it isn't working - the code I posted should work in any cell. Did you paste into the module of the sheet you're using, rather than a standard module?
