Change Event Causing Event To Fire Again
Aug 7, 2006
I have the following code, which works perfectly:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim TotalDays As Integer
TotalDays = Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1
The code points to the next blank cell so the user can input a value. Each time the user enters a value I want to re-run the code so that the colour of the cell changes.
However I also want to perform various calculations on the sheet. However this means the sheet is being changed and so continually repeats my code.
How do I add the following, to my previous code?
Range("E8").Value = Cells(7, 6) * 2.5

I'd like the users to be able to change some detail in a couple of places and have it updated throughout the spreadsheet. Basically, the user can change the line name in any of the input sheets and the code changes the sheet name, and searches for the reference to the old name in the overview sheet and changes it accordingly.
The problem I have at the moment is that I would also like the user to be able to change the line name from the overview sheet too... I am having trouble thinking how to have similar code in the "Overview" sheets Worksheet_Change event without getting into a big constant loop... e.g. if the line name is changed via code on the individual input sheets won't that then trigger the first code, which will trigger the second etc. etc. I have the following code in the ThisWorkbook section:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
Dim sName As String
Dim sOldName As String
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
sOldName = ActiveSheet.Name
If Target.Address <> "$B$1" Then Exit Sub
sName = ActiveSheet.Range("B1")
On Error Goto ErrorHandler
ActiveSheet.Name = sName
On Error Goto 0
Sheet8.Select 'this is the overview sheet
Cells. Find(What:=sOldName, LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate........................

Is there a way to write a Worksheet_SelectionChange (ByVal Target As Range) event in module after creating a sheet in VBA? I constantly delete a sheet, then repopulate it with a new one that is empty, but I need to add some code that happens if they should change a particular cell. It worked when I ran it on a worksheet without refreshing, but as soon as I cleared and repopulated the sheet, it was gone. Is there a way to preserve this?

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Application.Intersect(Target, Me.Range("R1C1")) Is Nothing Then
'do something
End If
End Sub
Now, that Private Sub works fine if you change the value of R1C1 manually or from another macro.
But if R1C1 is the cell linked to a list box, nothing will happen if you change its value by selecting different items in the list box.

In the situation where I shut down my model (i.e. not just press Ctrl+S, but shut it down), the following code saves the model twice. I only want it to save once. I really can't see why it saves a second time.
NB: I know if you set Cancel to True in the BeforeSave event, it should prevent the model from saving after the event, but even when set to true in the below code, it still saves...
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
bIsClosing = True 'Given we shut model, this public bIsClosing is set to true...
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim wsArray() As Variant
Dim iCnt As Integer
Dim wsSht As Worksheet
Application. ScreenUpdating = 0
Splash.Visible = True 'Splash is codename for warning spreadsheet, this is left
'visible while all other sheets are to be hidden.......................

I have a large file, part of which amongst other things calculates life expectancy from a range of q(x) values (proportion of people that die moving from age (x) to (x+1). Life expectancy is calculated using a user-defined function (below).
My problem is that whenever I run a macro that changes the file, even parts of the file that don't affect the cells using the life function, it jumps into the life function. (An example: copying and pasting values on a different sheet). This is a hassle when stepping through other macros using F8, not to mention the time cost.
Some further possibly necessary information: one macro uses the GoalSeek application to set the target cell that contains the life function
By the way, this didn't use to happen in older versions of a similar file. When running the GoalSeek macro to change target life expectancy it did, but not for any other macro.
Here is the function:
Function life(data As Range)
' Aims to calculate Life expectancy from Qx values
' It assumes first value of Q is Qb, then Q0 to Qmax
Dim Nobs As Integer
Dim j As Integer, i As Integer
Dim q() As Double
Dim L() As Double
Dim T As Double, le As Double
Nobs = data.Rows.Count

Attached is book in which, when a choice is selected from Drop Down list in ColumnF the macro has to do the need.
When the macro was written it was working well. But when I tried to change it as a Worksheet_SelectionChange event nothing is happenning even though a choice is selected from drop down list.

Basically the situation I have is Sheet2 has many references to cells in Sheet1. Sheet2 is for all intents and purposes a kind of nicely formatted report form, and Sheet1 is the input form.
My ultimate goal is to automatically resize row heights on Sheet2 when cell contents change on Sheet2.
Using a worksheet_change event isn't working I presume because it doesn't see the formula output change as a worksheet change, the worksheet_change is firing only when the input is changed in Sheet1.
how can I capture these formula output changes on Sheet2 (triggered from input on Sheet1) OR is there a way of making a particular sheets rows always adjust in height to best fit?

On Error GoTo errhandler
Sheets(1).Name = Sheets(1).range("d10")
Exit Sub
errhandler:
MsgBox "sheet name is already exists"

I have a user input box (VBA) with two columns of data entry. The leftmost column has text boxes labeled color1, color2, color3, etc.. The rightmost column has text boxes labeled tag1, tag2, tag3, etc..
I have the TAB sequence set to go from color1 to tag1, color2 to tag2, color3to tag3, etc..
A user can inadvertently tab over the color1 (or color2, etc. columns) into the tag1 (or tag 2, etc. columns) column without entering data in the color column.
Is there coding to allow a TAB key entry to be a Change Event such that, if a user TABS out of color1 without entering data, a MsgBox could signal that they must enter data in the color1 field before they can continue?
Alternately, can you suggest a different approach? The goal is to require an entry in the leftmost column (color1) before they can proceed to the tag1 field. Of course, they are given a "Cancel" option.

I've been searching all over and can not figure this out as from my limited knowledge it should work. I have two sheets (A & B) and on Sheet A an employee inputs a job number into column B and what I then want to happen is have column D populate automatically with the clients address. This client address is located in Sheet B. I figured the best way to do this was to use a combination of the 'Change Event' method and VLookup utilising a bit of VBA, but I just cant get it to work - I keep getting a #Name? error.

In a Worksheet On Change event I am trying to obtain a new value that the user has placed into a particular cell.
However, when I get to the line of code that reads the value in that particular cell, it is pulling the value that was in the cell prior to the change. When I view the sheet I can see the new value. When I do a debug.print or ? in the Immediate Window it shows the prior value.

trying to get a worksheet change event to work. Basically the code below calls the time_start procedure when cell J16 downwards is selected.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Row > 15 And Target.Column = 10 Then
Call time_start
Else
End If
End Sub
However, I am lost from here on....Let me try and explain what it is I am trying to do. This seems so simple if you know how. Each time that the word "Completed" is entered in to a cell from J16 onwards, the cell two columns to the right on the same row is selected and the current date is entered.
If the word "Completed" is deleted, I want the date on that row to be deleted.
I would also like the choices "Completed" and a blank cell to be given in a validation list via a dropdown if possible to avoid occurances of "Complete" etc and mis-spellings but I understand that a bug may stop me from using this functionality. I am running Excel 2002 on a Windows XP Professional OS.

I am trying to capture the value of a cell before a change even. The attached Macro will report the value before the change but does not store it so that I can use it in another module. What I am trying to do is capture the value before the change and then look that value up in another worksheet (in the same workbook) so I can make the same change in the second workbook.
The values will always be in Column B and will always be string characters.
The code I am using for the change event is as follows: ....

I have two worksheets, and when the value in one changes I'd like the value in the other to change as well. Pasting a link doesn't work, because on the "Paste to" sheet I've applied conditional formatting, and it doesn't register a change event when it's a pasted link. I tried running a macro to copy the whole column and paste it on a change event, but that didn't alert the conditional formatting to kick in.
The "Paste From" sheet has dropdowns in column C. The "Paste to" sheet has corresponding dropdowns in column F. So, if someone changes the selection in C3 on "Paste From", I'd like F3 on "Paste to" to change.

I have a user entering text into a textbox on my userform. The textbox is linked to a textbox change event. Unfortunately, the event is triggered as soon as the user enters the first character of their entry. I'm thinking that the textbox change event isn't the most appropriate for this scenario. What would I need to do to trigger the code (of the change event) with hitting ENTER when finished?

I am populating column D with
=IF($C2="","",VLOOKUP($C2,Name_ID,2,FALSE))
Based on selection in column C populated using a drop down list from a range titled PracticeID. Other named ranges, all on sheet titled Validation, are PracticeName and Name_ID (a 2 column range made up of PracticeName and PracticeID). This works great the first time a selection is made in column C. But, of course, if the user needs to change the selection in column C, the value in column D does not change. Would the cell change event be the appropriate place to place this action?

If no program (code) is running and Calculation is turned to ON, what expression could be placed into a cell that will change on its own that could necessarily and periodically trigger a change event subroutine. How can I trigger a change event when nothing is changing?
I have a situation where my code simply stops running so i need a change event to assess whether code is running (or not) and to issue a warning to the programmer that the code is, in fact, stalled. The change event subroutine has not only a warning system but a "timetorun" feature that will come back and warn again until the programmer can address the issue.
Unfortunately, I have to deal with this issue in a check and balance fashion because my many attempts to seek solutions to a stalled program (root cause) have failed.
