I just got the first part to work here:

http://www.mrexcel.com/board2/viewtopic.php?t=180814&highlight=


Thank you all very much, and the next question is:

Is there a way to limit the range that this code:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Target.Copy
Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A65536"). _
End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
End Sub

will copy?

Point and click in "A1:D10" and it works, outside of that range it doesn't.

Can this be done?

Like I said, I'm a Noob!
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
Does this work?
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
    If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
    If Intersect(Range("A1:D10"), Target) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
    
    Target.Copy
    Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues
    
End Sub
By the way did you see my last post in the other thread?

Have you checked that the correct values are being pasted?

Works great!

A big thank you!

With any luck I won't have to come back here for a while.

Yes, I saw your previous post, but I had already used Pookie's which at that stage of the game did the job. There's an edit there that says as much.

You also wrote: "Have you checked that the correct values are being pasted?"

Yes, I put up a little column of formulas =Sheet2!A1 and copied them on down to watch the results.
