G'day all,
Bit of a curly one. I am hoping to have a sheet code that might be able to achieve the following.

Range of cells may include the following values - EDO or EDO-U
If any of those cells are changed from those values to any value containing a 0, I would like the formatting of that cell to be changed. I can't use a simple conditional formatting rule because there are other cells in the range which may already have a value containing 0, and the formatting needs be different.

Any ideas on if and how this might be able to be achieved?

Cheers
Hayden
 
I added another global var to set as a flag between the two subs, so that should help:
VBA Code:
Dim pVal
Dim swapVal As Boolean

Public Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
pVal = Target.Value
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Resp As String
Dim prevValue
prevValue = pVal

On Error GoTo ExitNow
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target.CountLarge = 1 And Not Intersect(Target, Range("G12:T174")) Is Nothing Then '<--- Change Target Range Here
    If swapVal = False Then
'---EDO/EDO-U
        If prevValue = "EDO" Or prevValue = "EDO-U" Then
            If InStr(Target.Value, "0") Then
                With Target
                    .Interior.Color = RGB(0, 176, 240)
                    .Font.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0)
                    'Input Box below. change text and title as needed:
                    Resp = Application.InputBox("Test Text", _
                    Title:="Test Text")
                End With
            End If
        Else
'-------OFF/OFF-U
            If prevValue = "OFF" Or prevValue = "OFF-U" Then
                If InStr(Target.Value, "0") Then
                    With Target
                        .Interior.Color = RGB(255, 255, 0)
                        .Font.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0)
                        'Input Box below. change text and title as needed:
                        Resp = Application.InputBox("Test Text", _

    Else
        swapVal = False
    End If
'---Absenteeism Details

            Case "SDO", "STFN", "CDO", "CTFN" '<- Add more trigger values here if required

Hey again mate,
One more thing I promise..... I think.... I hope.
How can i have the highlighted section below be non case sensitive? so if cell is changed to "ok" the code will still execute and also if "dec" is entered it will run too.
VBA Code:
'---DAO Shift Extension Confirmation/Decline
    With Target
        If InStr(1, .Value, "?") > 0 Or InStr(1, .Value, "OK") > 0 Then
            Resp = Application.InputBox("Please enter details of when this shift extension was confirmed by the DAO. " & _
            "Including time and date and how it was confirmed", "DAO Shift Extension Confirmation", , , , , , 2)
        Else
            If InStr(1, .Value, "DEC") > 0 Then
                Resp = Application.InputBox("Please enter details of when this shift extension was declined by the DAO. " & _
                "Including time and date when it was declined", "DAO Shift Extension Declined", , , , , , 2)
            End If
        End If
    End With
    Call AddComment(Target, Resp)
End If

ExitNow:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Thanks heaps!

Can Excel fill bagel flavors?
You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Try adding this argument to each instance of InStr:

InStr(1, .Value, "?", vbTextCompare)
