auto overwrite cells

**ctekin** · 09-14-2012, 09:58 PM

Hello everyone. I'm hoping someone here can help me with my problem. I am currently using excel 2007 to read comport data into a sheet.

For example. i have cells A1 thru A12 that are written with the data from the comport. I need it to do either one of two things.

1. email me the last set of changes made to the sheet
or
2. delete the existing data on the sheet so that the new data will overwrite what already exists.

For example. i have cells A1 thru A12 that are written with the data from the comport.

If more information is required I can post anything needed.

Thanks in advance.

Hello and welcome to the forum. I don't know exactly how the data is imported from the com port but this code will clear those cells:

Range("A1:A12").clear
