Hello all,

I used to have a macro with which I could enter data into specific columns. The macro would prompt with Column header names to get the right data and check for conformance of entered values. I've lost it somehow and can't find it anymore. I would have used it as an example - I want to do more with a macro of that kind. I have a spreadsheet with 19 worksheets and want to use a single macro for each of the (IDENTICAL) worksheets. Can anyone help me with ANY example that will do what I want?? Thanks in advance.

Why do you have 19 identical worksheets? It's generally better to try to compartmentalize the data and you can then use Pivot Tables to isolate the views that you need.

As for the code, if it's strictly data entry then why not use a User Form? Here's a good tutorial:Create an Excel UserForm

HTH,
