This newsgroup is for questions about Access, the database product that's
part of Office Professional.
Your use of the word "cells" makes me suspect that you're talking about
Excel, as there isn't really a concept like "cells" in Access. If that's the
case, you'd be best off reposting your question to a newsgroup related to
Excel.
If you are talking about Access, then recognize that Access deals with
tables that contain fields. It's not completely clear to me what it is
you're trying to do, but to update values, you'd use an Update query. To
only update certain values, you'd put an appropriate Where clause in that
Update query.
