My in-expertise at VBA seems to have caught up with me. As I tried to edit this, it seems all I've done is make it do nothing...:eeek:

Here's my code:

Code:
Sub clear()    Dim objColorStop As ColorStop
    Dim mySelect As Range
    Dim myOthershtRng As Range




    Set mySelect = ActiveSheet.Range(Selection.Address)
    Set myOthershtRng = Sheets("Scheduler").Range(Selection.Address).Offset(-85, -2)
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    With Selection.Interior
        .Pattern = xlNone
        .TintAndShade = 0
        .PatternTintAndShade = 0
    End With
Sheets("RO").Visible = True
Sheets("RO").Select
With myOthershtRng.ClearContents
End With
Sheets("Scheduler").Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
'Sheets("RO").Visible = False
Sheets("Scheduler").Select
Range("R1").Select
'Call RTO
End Sub

What the code should do:
Is clear the currently selected cells, then clear the matching cells on the "RO" sheet. The cells are offset (-85,-2)
 

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.
Try this:
Code:
Sub Clear_Selection()
Selection.ClearContents
Sheets("RO").Range(Selection.Address).ClearContents
End Sub

Why do you need :
Offset(-85, -2)

Because the cells do identically match up. If I clear cells E89:F89 on the current sheet, then on "RO" I would need C4:D4 cleared.

Try this:
Code:
Sub Clear_Selection()
Selection.ClearContents
Sheets("RO").Range(Selection.Address).Offset(-85, -2).ClearContents
End Sub
