Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to auto-populate details for certain cells based on certain conditions:
  1. Columns A, I, L, and Z should auto-populate Date when Column B has information keyed in
  2. Column F should auto-populate "Walk In" and Column G should auto-populate "Endorsed to" when Column E has information keyed in
  3. Column K should auto-populate "Go" when Column J has information keyed in
  4. Column N and AA should auto-populate "No Go" when Column M has information keyed in

I did find a code which auto-populates Date in Column A when information is entered in Column B:
Code:

<code class="vb spaces">    </code><code class="vb keyword">End</code> <code class="vb keyword">If</code>
<code class="vb keyword">End</code> <code class="vb keyword">Sub</code>

I can't figure out how to replicate it though to meet the conditions listed above :(

Help please and thank you

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
How about
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

   If Target.CountLarge > 1 Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
   Select Case Target.Column
      Case 2
         If Target.Value <> "" Then Intersect(Target.EntireRow, Range("A:A, I:I, L:L,Z:Z")).Value = Date
      Case 5
         If Target.Value <> "" Then Target.Offset(, 1).Resize(, 2).Value = Array("Walk In", "Endorsed to")
      Case 10
         If Target.Value <> "" Then Target.Offset(, 1).Value = "Go"
      Case 13
          If Target.Value <> "" Then Intersect(Target.EntireRow, Range("N:N, AA:AA")).Value = "No Go"
   End Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Hi @Fluff

Thanks for your reply. The code works :) Some questions though to understand the code further ...

I did google a bit and the "Select Case" is equivalent to a nested IF function? This code just makes it easier for VBA and Excel to read the code?

Then with regards to this line of code
Code:
If Target.Value <> "" Then Target.Offset(, 1).Resize(, 2).Value = Array("Walk In", "Endorsed to")
how do you read it? I got lost with the .Resize

If the target cell was E5, then the offset takes you to F5 & the Resize(,2) changes that to F5:G5
