Prevent Worksheet_Change Event
Mar 12, 2008
I'm trying to find a way to bypass a worksheet_change event. Right now, my code validates if a change has been done to a specific cell ("D13"). It works perfectly, too perfectly actually.
Here is the code I got :
First line of Module 1 :
Public bDeviation As Boolean
On Sheet1 :
Public Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Dim VRange As Range
Dim strName As String
Application. ScreenUpdating = False

I have two workbooks that have the following
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim myColor As Integer
With Target
If Intersect(.Cells, Range("v:v")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If IsEmpty(.Cells) Then r.Offset(, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone: Exit Sub
If Not IsDate(.Cells) Then r.Offset(, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone: Exit Sub
Select Case Month(.Value)
Case 1: myColor = 3
Case 2: myColor = 17
Case 3: myColor = 19
Case 4: myColor = 22
Case 5: myColor = 26
Case 6: myColor = 33
Case 7: myColor = 36
Case 8: myColor = 38
Case 9: myColor = 40
Case 10: myColor = 42
Case 11: myColor = 44
Case 12: myColor = 7
I have this code in 1 sheet in one of the books (and all other sheets work fine), and the same code in all sheets in the other book. Both books work the way it's supposed to.
My question,
Is it necessary to have the Worksheet_Change event in all the sheets (all sheets act on the code the same way) or is it okay for just one sheet?
Could I encounter a problem if in only one sheet?
I just don't see why I would have to add more size with the code in all sheets if it is not necessary.

Bit of an odd one, but I'm sure it's probably happened before to others. I've just been sent a worksheet to redesign (an audit template) one which I'll be making use of data validation lists (Yes, No, N/A) a fair bit.
What I want to happen is that when the user selects from a list, I'll fire a Worksheet_Change event, which will then run some background calculations to set up the next questions, etc. Problem is, the event isn't firing at all. I'm using the following to test the event...

I wrote a simple script to show/hide certain rows based on the value of a certain cell on my worksheet (cell value chosen by drop down). When I left work last night, everything worked fine. When I returned this morning, the change event no longer appears to be firing. I'm quite certain no one else accessed the file to change the coding, so my only guesses are 1)perhaps some sort of system update was applied in the middle of the night and it messed with something or 2) aliens have blocked our technology in advance of their invasion.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
If Target.Address = "F1" Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
Select Case Target
Case "150"
Rows("13").EntireRow.Hidden = False
Rows("14:19").EntireRow.Hidden = True
Case "330"
Rows("14").EntireRow.Hidden = False
Rows("13").EntireRow.Hidden = True
Rows("15:19").EntireRow.Hidden = True
Case "340"
Rows("15:19").EntireRow.Hidden = False
Rows("13:14").EntireRow.Hidden = True
Case Else
Rows("13:19").EntireRow.Hidden = True
End Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub

Is it possible to use a named range as part of the Target.Address in a Worksheet_Change event? For example, if I've named cell A1 to be XYZ, can I use something like the following VBA script:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = Range("XYZ") Then
.....
End If
End Sub
The above script obviously doesn't work. The only thing I can get to work is:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then
.....
End If
End Sub
I would like to be able to use a named range so that I don't have to remember to update my VBA when I insert rows or columns in my worksheet.

I'm using the following code. Basically it formats some cells in row based on the value in the first column of the row.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim icolor As Integer
Dim RowNr As Integer
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1:A65536")) Is Nothing Then
For Each cell In Target
If Target.Text = "" Then
icolor = 0
ElseIf Target.Text = "Row Loaded" Then
icolor = 4
ElseIf Left(Target.Text, 14) = "Row not loaded" Then
This works fine, except when I delete a row by clicking on the row number to highlight the row, and then right click to select delete.
The event fires for each cell in the rows, and takes ages to run.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to prevent this from happening? I tried substituting
For Each row In Target

I have a user who wanted a spreadsheet to highlight cells containing formulas whenever the formula was changed. (They want the ability to make changes, but want those changes highlighted. They do not want to protect cells with formulas.) I tried to accomplish this with Conditional Formatting but could not figure out a way to do it, so I turned to VBA. I wrote the following routine that is called on the Worksheet_change event:
Sub CheckFormulas(Target As Range, FormulaRange As String)
Dim CurCell As Range
For Each CurCell In Range(FormulaRange)
If Target.Address = CurCell.Address Then
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next CurCell
End Sub...................

In the worksheet_change event I am calling a method for performing some calculations. The method is called only if certain cells are affected. I want to know the cell values before the event gets triggered.
For eg: Lets say Cell A1: 10 Cell A2: 20 I select both A1 & A2 and click on delete. Then I want to obtain the values 10 & 20 in the method called. Is this possible? Currently If I do Cell.value it returns blank.

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.

I know how to enable/disable events using VBA code, however is there an option within excel to turn it on/off? My problem is this...
At the beginning of my code I disable events and at the end I enable it again (I need to do this to avoid being caught in a loop). However something is going wrong somewhere in my code and the code stops halfway through. I'm trying to test sections of the code, but I often inadvertently stop the code without enabling the events again. Therefore I can't get my VBA to execute again unless I close excel down and restart. This is a pain as I have to find my place in the code again!

I'd like to know if there is a change event that only occurs when a target cell is changed by the user, but does not occur when i'ts changed by a macro. nfortunately, the Worksheet_Change event occurs in both cases.

I am having difficulties with my Worksheet_Activate() macro. It works great within workbook1 when it is only workbook1 open - but when I open another workbook2, the macro stills runs, presumably because Sheet1 of workbook1 is still activated as well as the newly activated sheet in workbook2.
Is there a way to ensure that only 1 worksheet of 1 workbook is activated at a time? Or that sheet1 of workbook1 is deactivated when workbook2 is opened/clicked on? I need my Worksheet_Deactivate macro to run to get rid of my Worksheet_Activate macro (which runs an application that resets the function of keyboards keys). Otherwise moving around workbook2 is a nightmare. When I navigate back to workbook1 while workbook2 is still open, I still want sheet1 of workbook1 to be activated and my macro to run .

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........................

I have a userform with a combobox in it that's rowsource is a column of company names in a worksheet. When a company name is chosen, a combobox change private sub runs and many userform textboxes are populated with information about the company that was chosen from the combobox dropdown. This information is stored on a worksheet. I then want to edit any of the information in these textboxes. Once my edits are made I have a CommandButton that is pressed to save the edit changes. This CommandButton runs a private sub that disables the combobox (thinking this would prevent the combobox private sub from running), deletes the row that the information originated from, and then SHOULD make a new row of values based on the contents of the textboxes following the edits. The problem is that the CommandButton coding that deletes the row causes the combobox change private sub to run because the company that had been selected is now the missing from the rowsource; this causes an error.

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?

With worksheet_change(byval target as range), is there a simple way to focus on only the row that has changed? Currently I have a 'do while' loop that looks for x until it is blank. That is causing a delay that I am hoping to avoid by only changing one row.
Also, any direction on resoures that shed more light on the front half of macros (dim, range, where you want the macro to look and act, etc)

Can you have more then one worksheet_change event for the same worksheet and if not what is a work around. I have two that I want to use but only the first one works. Both work if they are the only one, but when they are both present the second one does not work.

i have some code that is set in the Worksheet_Change routine.
For some reason the code is not activated when a change is made on the relevant sheet.
I can type into boxes and hit return amongst other things and the code simply wont fire, is there a reason for this (am i missing something)?
my code is...........
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
If Range("r_PatientType") Sheets("Data store").Range("store_PatientType") Then
If Range("r_PatientType") = "Paroxysmal" Then

I have a problem with the vba script attached. RoyUk very kindly helped me with this code a few weeks ago.
What I have is an example of some worksheets. I want the person to input into the first sheet their name & period and Y for whether they have checked the balance or not.
The problem I have is that if I fill in all those three details straight away it copies through wrightie, 5 and Y through all the pages. I don't want Y (balance check to copy through) as I need the user to manually input that.
It does work though if I put in wrightie, 5 and then check the other pages to see if it's copied through and then go back to the first sheet and put Y, it seems to work then.

I'm trying to find code (I can't write my own yet) that will highlight any cells that have been changed with fill color and bold font. I've searched around the forum and come up with the code below so far. It's not working - when I make a change to a cell and hit enter, it highlights and bolds the cell BELOW the one that changed!
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
With Selection.Font
.Name = "Calibri"
.FontStyle = "Bold"
.Size = 11
.Strikethrough = False
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
.OutlineFont = False
.Shadow = False
.Underline = xlUnderlineStyleNone
.ThemeColor = xlThemeColorLight1
.TintAndShade = 0
.ThemeFont = xlThemeFontMinor

This macro is worksheet specific.

Columns("C:J").EntireColumn.Hidden = True

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've been Google-ing for the last 45 minutes and tried to combine them myself, but I'm afraid of breaking it.
I believe the second code was taken from the MrExcel site, I don't remember.
CODE 1:
// Track Changes; updates any/all changed cells with a comment identifying the author, date and change that was made //
Option Explicit
Public preValue As Variant
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Select Case Target.Column
Case Is = 2, 4, 6
Target.ClearComments
Target.AddComment.Text Text:="Previous Value was " & preValue & Chr(10) & "Revised "
CODE 2:
// Whenever a specific range of cells are updated, the adjacent cells update with a timestamp //
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
With Target
If .Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Range("F3:F1000"), .Cells) Is Nothing Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
With .Offset(0, 1)
.Value = Now
