smart timetable - find cell and insert 'value'

[desmond_]

dear experts,

i was thinking about an automatized timetable which could look like this
i insert the month/year in the first column and the related cell will be entered with whatever value 'x'

insert month here	01	02	03	04	05	06	07	08	09	10	11	12
01	'x'
08								'x'

<tbody>
</tbody>

since INDEX(MATCH) is somehow the reversed function i guess this should be possible.
i just have no idea how to write the vba code.

do you have some help/suggestions

thanks in advance !

Assuming that your header is row 1 & Month is col A, try

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
   
   Dim Fnd As Range
   If Target.CountLarge > 1 Then Exit Sub
   If Not Target.Column = 1 Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
   Set Fnd = Rows(6).Find(Target.Value, , xlValues, xlWhole, , , False, , False)
   If Not Fnd Is Nothing Then Target.Offset(, Fnd.Column - 1) = "X"
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

works well.
just changed Rows(6) to Rows(1) and it works


Thanks !
