Hi Don Guillett Thanks for your answer. It works perfect in the example. I then hoped I could change a few things and the it would still work, but I can not, and I can not see why.
Instead of writing "One", "Two" and so on in Colum A, I would like to change this for different status, examples could be "Not started", Awating info", "Finished" I have tried to put these different status texts into the code, but then it does not work. I am new to VBA, so I am sorry if this is obvious to others. Br.
