How do I have Excel VB write a open ended formula?

[Shaka215]

Hello!

The idea to the code below would make it possiable so that a person
could hit a button and a macro would convert the current number in the
active cell to add a formula to give the sum of the next possiable
number entered by the enduser... Think of it like the following...

END USER TYPES "9"
PRESS A BUTTON (Not keyboard) WITH A "+"
END USER TYPES "9" again...

Macro kicks in a makes it "=9+9" to have the spreadsheet display the
finished result.


This is to make it so that someone who doesn't know how to do formulas
inside of Excel could get the result they are looking for...

ActiveCell.Value = 9 (or which ever number the enduser chooses to
enter)

TAXES.ActiveCell.Formula = "=" & ActiveCell.Text & "+" & "1"
' This is the initial idea of getting it to work...The & "1" is placed
as a temporary number to complete the formula.

If Len(TAXES.ActiveCell.Text) > 0 Then
TAXES.ActiveCell.Value = Left(TAXES.ActiveCell.Text,
Len(TAXES.ActiveCell.Text) - 1)
' This code above deletes the 1 leaving the activecell formula to be
=9+(EMPTY)

Any help is much appreciated...I been trying to figure this out the
last few hours and haven't had much luck...Thanks!!!

Assuming the <formula> is correctly entered into a text box, then a button
click can send it to cell :

Activecell.formula="=" & TextBox2.Text
