Activate button when row selected.

J

Johnnyb

I have a button on a protected sheet which will allow the user to delete
a row. The button enabled feature is set to false initially. I would
like to enable the button when the user selects a row or multiple rows.
Then they can delete the selected rows & the sheet will be protected
again.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated,

Regard's,
Johnnyb

Wouldn't this mean that you (Excel) would have to continually check to
see if anything has been selected on the worksheet?
I think it would be easier to always have the button ENABLED, and add
code as part of the deletion routine to check that the user has selected
valid and/or entire rows for deletion.

right click on the sheet tab and select view code. Paste in code like
this:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = Target.EntireRow.Address Then
CommandButton1.Enabled = True
Else
CommandButton1.Enabled = False
End If
End Sub
