Ron,
In '97' I had a lottery spreadsheet for tracking the numbers twice a
week.
I would click on a form button which would bring up a dialog asking to
input
the numbers. It would ask for the first number (see attached) which I
would
input, hit Okay and it would put that number in the proper cell and then
ask
for "lottery number two" etc.
Here is the VB macro code that the form button would run.....

Hope some of this helps.

Well, it finally happened...my brain must have filled up and dumped
some
data! I have no recollection of that functionality in Excel97. I
remembered
Data>Form, though, so I'm happy about that.
Could you describe in a little more detail what you want to see? Maybe,
it'll jog my (or someone else's) memory.

Actually, I was thinking of a form that only allowed one input at a
time.
In Excel 97 I clicked on a button and the form came up and asked for
one
at
a time. Number 1, number 2, etc.
I can send a copy of that spreadsheet if it would help explain what I
am
saying.
Thanks for your help,
Barney
Are you looking for....
Select your data range, including col headings.
From the Excel main menu:
Data>Form
Does that help?

I have 20 cells values that must be input to a row 128 times within
about
a
half hour to 45 minutes. I need to do this once each month. In
Excel
97
there was a 'data input' form that could be used. I cannot find
that
in
Excel 2002.
Any advice would be appreciated since I think it would really help
speed
things up.
