[mso] Re: Using IF to select Macro command to carry out? Possible?

Hi Robert,
IMHO you will have to call the macros from VBA (inside another 
macro). One command you could use would be the Select Case command; 
you set a variable (for example, WhichMacro) to the value of cell A6, 
then the macro to run is chosen by code like this:

Sub ChooseMacroToRun ()
WhichMacro.value = Range("A6").value

Select Case WhichMacro
         Case 1
             Run(FirstTrip)
         Case 2
             Run(SecondTrip)
         Case 3
             Run(ThirdTrip)
         Case 4
             Run(FourthTrip)
         Case 5
             Run(FifthTrip)
         Case 6
             Run(SixthTrip)
         Case 7
             Run(SeventhTrip)
         Case Else
             Do whatever you must do when the value is not from 1 to 7
     End Select
End Sub

Now, to trigger the macro, you can assign it to a button for the user 
to click, or have it run automatically whenever the value of cell A6 
changes (for this, take a look at the Worksheet_SelectionChange event 
in Excel Help).
