The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Excel 2007, How to disable/grey cell in column G depending on contents of cell in column E

Asked by AZ-Administrator in Visual Basic Programming

I'm working on an eBay fee calculation spreadsheet, too much free time. And I'm committed to figuring out this aspect even if there are eBay tools out there I could buy. This is my first foray into VBA

If E3 says "Fixed" (which is selected by drop-down list), then I would like the corresponding cell in columns G, H, and I disabled and grey'd out.

Not sure if this requires the sheet to be protected or not, I've tried both ways.

The code below I found on an Excel forum but I can't get it to work.

Suggestions? Thank you!! My apologies for the points, it's all I had available.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
 
    If Target.Address = "E3" Then
        If Target.Value = "Fixed" Then
            Range("G3").Interior.Color = RGB(192, 192, 192)
            ActiveSheet.Cells.Locked = False
            Range("G3").Locked = True
            ActiveSheet.Protect
        Else
            ActiveSheet.Unprotect
            Range("G3").Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
        End If
    End If
 
End Sub
