Lock a cell format to dollars only

G

Guest

I've created a button linked to several calculations. It begins by
calculating a percentage. Then I figure the dollars with that figure. Then I
figure the difference between the original dollar amt and the new dollar amt.
Then I copy this into the cells I want it to stay. I have 4 buttons I'm using
to cover 4 possible scenarios. They're all set at "Percent - Dollar - Dollar"
(and they're all set up to run via macro tied to the buttons. Now, on some,
when I click the button it's changing my first dollar to a percent. Why would
it do that and how can I prevent it?

I have 3 buttons I've built using Macro's to initiate the actions.
Button 1 and Button 2 work perfectly.
Button 3 changes my first number from a $figure to a percentage.
It's weird.
I have one thought on why.
The sheet has been passed back and forth between windows and Mac.
Maybe it lost something in there.

Your 3rd macro set the Activecell to % so if this (active) cell contains your
$ data it will be set to %. However, in my testing if I set the Activecell
format to currency it didn't get changed but did if the format was GENERAL.



You could remove the SELECT statements and see if this makes any dfference:

Range("T103")..FormulaR1C1 = "=R[-93]C[-3]/(R12C[-3]-R9C[-3])"

from

Range("T103").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=R[-93]C[-3]/(R12C[-3]-R9C[-3])"

Thanks for your help.
It's up and running.
I have one more question if you would be so kind.
Otherwise, I can post as a new thread.

When I "password protect" my worksheet, my buttons no longer work.
I get a run-time error 1004.
Any ideas why it would do this?
