HI!

I'm new here. I'm thinking if this is possible. example I enter "123" in cell A1. then I type something from B1, C1, D1, E1 and so on. and when I press enter key, automatically, A2 will display the top value which A1's value (123)? is this possible?



thank you so much!:laugh::laugh::laugh:
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
So you want the value from A1 to be copied down to A2 automatically? Is that right?
If so, exactly when should this happen? When you enter something in B2?

HI SIR! :)

I want it to happen when i press the enter key. not by entering value from b1,c1 and so on. but by pressing ENTER KEY. :)

OK, if you do not care which cell you hit the ENTER key on, the following code will run automatically upon the following conditions:
- A value is entered into any cell
- Cell A1 has a value
- Cell A2 does not have a value
Then it will copy A1 to A2.

This is Event Procedure code. To get it to run automatically, it must be placed in the proper sheet module.
To do this, right-click on the sheet tab name at the bottom of the screen, select "View Code", and paste this code in the resulting VB Editor window:
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    If Range("A1") <> "" And Range("A2") = "" Then
        Application.EnableEvents=False
        Range("A2") = Range("A1")
        Application.EnableEvents=True
    End If
End Sub

Hi sir Joe4 the code works well. I'm thinking if it is possible to do it in the whole worksheet like is it possible to assign only a cell that i want the procedure to happen?

We can help you with that, but you need to give us more details of how you envision this working.
