Does anyone have a vba script to list the co-ordinates (latitude and longitude) of the activecell so that I can move the cursor to that position.

I have the following script which lists the cursor position, but would like the cell position co-ordinates.

Code:
 Dim MyPointAPI As POINTAPI
Private Type POINTAPI
  x As Long
  Y As Long
End Type
Private Declare Function GetCursorPos Lib "user32" (lpPoint As POINTAPI) As Long
Private Declare Function SetCursorPos Lib "user32" (ByVal x As Long, ByVal Y As Long) As Long
 
Public Sub MouseCursorGetOurXY()
        'Following functions will need the above lib "user32" declarations
    l = GetCursorPos(MyPointAPI) 'get our cursor position first
    MsgBox CStr(MyPointAPI.x) & ", " & CStr(MyPointAPI.Y) 'displays cursor X Y coordinates
End Sub
Code:
Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
MouseCursorGetOurXY
end sub

Hi Jaye7,

You can get the coordinate in points for the Top Left corner of the ActiveCell using
.Top and .Left Properties.

Code:
With ActiveCell
    MsgBox "Top: " & .Top & vbCr & "Left: " & .Left
End With
