    Floating Box

    Hi,
    I am working on a worksheet and I need to be constantly checking on the data on certain cells on another worksheet (always updated). I've been thinking on creating some kind of floating box to do so, I've tried with a Text Box but it is "stuck" to a certain part of the sheet and as I move, it dissapears...I've tried with a MsgBox but it won't let me move until I click the OK button.

    This must be something really easy, but I'm such a rookie!
    Thanx,

    Patricio

    Hello Patricio,

    The easiest solution would be to split your Excel Screen in two. This way you can monitor the changing data while working on something else. Best of all, you don't have to write any code. If you don't know how to do this, consult your On-Line Excel Help.

    Hope this helps,
    Leith Ross
