Macro Help - Fairly Advanced.

[NPell]

Hello,

This is a bit of a re-post, but it seems to have fallen off the radar
a bit.

I have a macro that populates the username in a cell, that works fine.
But I dont want to have to Run the macro (or use Ctrl+Shift+U, as i
have assigned) for this to populate.

The username is needed to populate in M, based on the value of column
K being V

For example:
K M
-----------
v username

v username
v username

v username


K can only be "v" due to Data Validation. But it can be on any row.

Basically to put it in formula terms.
=IF($K1="v", Run Macro in M1)

Is this do-able? Ive seen suggestions with absolute cell references,
but this isnt absolute.

If anybody can help, or tell me if its even possible, it would be much
appreciated.

This should work, i can tell, but it doesnt.
Can i just ask where its drawing the Username information from, or if
i need to add more to the code?

No problem.

It gets the username from the system login. In what way does it not work?

Ah ok.

Well, It just doesnt show anything when i do put the "v" in cell in
Column K. It just seems as if it doesnt run or doesnt register.
