Get and set a value?

  Asked By: Hayed    Date: Sep 19    Category: MS Office    Views: 577
  

I'm trying to do the following...

1) Set a var equal to a cell value
2) I will then use a Select Case statement to decipher the value
3) Once I get the value, I'll set another value
4) I then need to put that resulting value in another cell location

The problem is I don't know how to get and set a value into cells in Excel.
If it were, say a Word form, I'd do something like...

Get a value from a form field in Word...

myVar = ActiveDocument.FormFields("myFirstMarker").Range.Text

Set a value in a form field in Word...

ActiveDocument.FormFields("myBookmark").Result = myVar

But I don't know how to start calling the sheet and how the syntax works for
locating a cell range??? I'd appreciate it if someone could tell me how to
do this in Excel...getting a value from one cell...and then putting a var
value into a cell.

Just getting back to this and forgot that I'd asked for help...so I went
looking to see if there was an answer. Appreciate the help. Now I can code
up my grade spreadsheet as it SHOULD be with proper automation.

shorter than Word! Which is why I am lousy with the Word
object model. I normally get someone else to do Word stuff for me.

should work out a deal!<g>
