[mhax]

hi

will have different color depending on user inupt)!

There is 6 different colors(so NO i CANT USE conditionnal formating), i
want something in vb, macro for excel 2002!

So here an example : If in cell P10, the user put the letter N, the
cell become red. It will also change the cell color in C10. Can you

Something like

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Const WS_RANGE As String = "H1:H10"


On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
With Target
Select Case .Value
Case "N": .Interior.ColorIndex = 3 'red
Case "X": .Interior.ColorIndex = 6 'yellow
Case "Y": .Interior.ColorIndex = 5 'blue
Case "G": .Interior.ColorIndex = 10 'green
End Select
End With
End If


ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub


'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.
