Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Re: How can one control data entry and truly protect a verified entry
I hate to throw a wrench into the monkeyworks, but: you were trying to use the SheetSelectionChange event. which actually runs for ANY sheet in your workbook, not just a specific sheet. which might be a bit confusing if you have multiple sheets, and you're using the event macro to lock the cells, then it would actually lock the cells the other sheets as well..

Want $B$3 to be current date. After that, want all cells $A$1 to $P$8 to be locked out from any attempt to change; better yet, no visiting allowed. Input cell at this time is $A$9 and input cell is advanced to $B$9; after contents are verified to be integer numeric,then that cell is locked and only then input cell is advanced for next entry and that is verified according to preset rules for that cell, which is then locked out. This continues to right up to and including $I$9; values are calculated for cells $J$9 to $P$9; and then all of those cells are locked out. At this point,row 9 is locked and this process is repeated for row 10, etc to row 33. Row 35 accumulates sums for the appropriate columns, and the user is locked out from making changes. Row 6 values and row 35 get added into row 37 and is similarly locked. Column K is calculated as a receipt number,incrementing as each row is completed by the user. Per rules above, the user is locked out and cannot change it. Rows not filled out by user remain empty. Then a new journal/sheet is made with old row 37 copied to new row 6, the journal number is incremented and the locking and forced data entries as mentioned continue. HOW can this be done (Excel 2003)? ** Easily found way to go to a given cell for data entry: Range(RowStart).Select. However, there seems to be no way to have the script wait for user input (and then check appropriate conditions) before going to next logical step. If that can be done, it seems i could write the script to do most of what i want. The locking out i want would seem to be yet another problem. Suggestions?

Pardon this is long; think i have given all what i want out of this Excel program. Assume previous journal (sheet) had a number,want this new one to be given (show) in $B$4 the next number. Want $B$3 to be current date. After that, want all cells $A$1 to $P$8 to be locked out from any attempt to change; better yet, no visiting allowed. Input cell at this time is $A$9 and input cell is advanced to $B$9; after contents are verified to be integer numeric,then that cell is locked and only then input cell is advanced for next entry and that is verified according to preset rules for that cell, which is then locked out. This continues to right up to and including $I$9; values are calculated for cells $J$9 to $P$9; and then all of those cells are locked out. At this point,row 9 is locked and this process is repeated for row 10, etc to row 33. Row 35 accumulates sums for the appropriate columns, and the user is locked out from making changes. Row 6 values and row 35 get added into row 37 and is similarly locked. Column K is calculated as a receipt number,incrementing as each row is completed by the user. Per rules above, the user is locked out and cannot change it. Rows not filled out by user remain empty. Then a new journal/sheet is made with old row 37 copied to new row 6, the journal number is incremented and the locking and forced data entries as mentioned continue. HOW can this be done (Excel 2003)? ** Easily found way to go to a given cell for data entry: Range(RowStart).Select. However, there seems to be no way to have the script wait for user input (and then check appropriate conditions) before going to next logical step.
