Hi

I want to select/highlight random cells in a table then multiply them by 20% and then update these cells value. for example

A1 = A1 * 20%

Then after the update, I want to be able to highlight or select or point to the cells that I just changed their values. Similar idea to the Formula Auditing Precedents tool. Or just highlight them. is that possible?

Thank you so much.

Excel Facts

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
How about

Rich (BB code):
Sub lezawang()
   Dim Rng As Range, Cl As Range
   For Each Rng In Selection.Areas
      For Each Cl In Rng
         Cl.Value = Cl.Value * 0.2
      Next Cl
      Rng.Interior.Color = 56789
   Next Rng
End Sub
