Hi all,

Now, I know that we all hate Excel's paperclip 'helper'; however,
have been asked to create a worksheet that once a cell has been fille
in the l'il bastard pops up and gives a prompt for what the user shoul
do next (e.g. 'Go to Sheet2').

I know that using Validation you can bring up a message when the cel
is selected, and that if you're using a validation drop-down you ca
summon the evil piece of twisted metal to give a message. However,
can't find a way of bringing it up when you've simply completed a cell
Any ideas?

TIA,

SamuelT

PS - If you love the Paperclip, my apologies...and seek psychologica
help. :eek:
PSS - I know you can turn the paperclip off, but I still need a promp
message
