    Simulate tab order for form controls dropped into spreadsheet

    Thanks for responding so fast... I am using ActiveX textboxes, so can do something with the events, but I am not sure which event to use for this - if I click into a textbox in my "form" and then press the tab key, the cursor stays in the same text box, so this won't (I presume) trigger any of...

    Conditional number formatting

    This may be too simple and understanding of your problem, but as an alternative to using VBA, could you hide the z's column (lets call it column C on the spreadsheet), then in column D put a formula along the lines of: =IF(B2="a",TEXT(C2,"#.##"),TEXT(C2,"#.###")) Nested IF's would allow more...

    How to add top values in a grid only until total = 80

    Tim, Good questions:- Duplicate numbers would both be highlighted - so both cells with number 12 (R2C2 and R1C1 in your list) would be highlighted. I appreciate that this could potentially result in every cell in the table being highlighted if each one had, for example an identical value of 1...
