Restrict Target Change Event To Single Cell
Sep 9, 2007
I'm trying to create a sheet where clicking in a range brings up, in my users words, "a box I can type loads of comments in". They want some kind of flag in this cell showing if comments are posted or not. So far so ok, got the userform to pop up using the selection change event below and dump the actual comments somewhere the user won't look. A rather inelegant IF statement to see if there's anything in the dump cell gives them their flag.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("B2:B300")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
UserForm1.TextBox1.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 10).Value
UserForm1.show
End Sub
So what's the problem? When I select entire rows, the userform pops up. Is this unavoidable?

I need to hide/unhide a couple of rows based on the result of a formula in the Target Range. Basically, Cell D2 contains the results of a sum (a+ B), if this is greater than 10,000, unhide the next row.

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?

I have a question on how to define fixed rows on making cell blank on new selection change.
The code below affects all rows under coloumn 1.
Is there any way to affect only eg row 1 to 20?
I attached a sample file for reference.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim strName As String
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
On Error Resume Next
strName = Target.Name.Name
On Error Goto 0
If ActiveCell.Column = 1 Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
ActiveCell.Offset(, 1).Value = vbNullString
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub

Long time since i've needed the expertise in this magnificent forum. I Have a problem with the ChangeEvent procedure. I have defined a range of two colums as can be seen in the posted code sample, but the Change Event procedure runs the procedures if ANY cells in the sheet is changed. How do I limit the Change Event to only the two colums that I have specified?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
If Range("L6:M1000") Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or IsEmpty(Target) Then Exit Sub
On Error Goto 0
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("L6:M1000")) Is Nothing Then
If Target.Value = 1 Then
Target.Offset(0, 1) = "5) Gennemført"
End If
If Target.Value = "5) Gennemført" Then
Target.Activate
With ActiveCell
.EntireRow.Select
Selection.Font.Color = RGB(196, 196, 196)
End With
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 11).Select
End If
End If
UpdateColorDeadline
Target.Select
End Sub

I have this code working fine. It applies conditional formating to two rows ((K3:K65) and (J3:J65)) and checks when a value changes in row B to reaplpy the formatting. I'd like to had add more columns to it. It would have apply the same conditonal formatting on rows ((O3:O65) and (P3:P65)) but when a value changes in row (N3:N65)
So basically, I want to keep the first working part of the code and have it to check at more rows with a different reference for the conditionnal formatting.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rng As Range
Dim rngJ As Range
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Set rng = Union(Range("B3:B65"), Range("J3:J65"))
If Intersect(Target, rng) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Set rngJ = Range("K" & Target.Row)
Select Case rngJ.Value
Case ""
rngJ.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
rngJ.Offset(0, -1).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
Case Is >= 20.............................

I am trying to make a macro run automatically based on info entered in a cell. The problem is I need this code on at least three separate sheets in the work book. It doesent work when I try to use the same basic code. The code I am using is below.
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim lLastRow As Long
Dim rgArea As Range, rgCell As Range
Dim COL_B As Integer
COL_B = 2
Dim COL_X As Integer
COL_X = 24
Dim ROW_FIRST As Long
ROW_FIRST = 5
' Find the last row of date in the "Approved" worksheet
lLastRow = FindLastRow(SZ_WS_APPROVED, COL_B)
' Set a reference to the changed cells in column X
Set Target = Intersect(Target, Range(Cells(ROW_FIRST, COL_X), Cells(lLastRow, COL_X))).........................

is it possible to have a userform activated as a result of a Worksheet_Change event on more than 2 cells. Currently I have the code below which will activate userforms if either a cell in Column G or a cell in Column T is changed.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("G:G", "T:T")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("G:G", "T:T")) = "" Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("G:G")) Is Nothing Then
GlngRow = Target.Row
Call Module3.ShowList1
End If
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("T:T")) Is Nothing Then
GlngRow = Target.Row
Call Module3.showlist4
End If
End Sub
What i need to do is activate another userform if a cell in Column AC is changed. I tried this code but got an error "Compile Error: Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment", which leads me to believe I can't add any more cells to the argument and it highlights the word Range in this line - If Intersect(Target, Range("G:G", "T:T", "AC:AC")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub..........

Can you have more than 1 worksheet change event on the same worksheet, if so, how do you name it to prevent the ambiguous name error. What code would I need to select a text value in colums e11:e15 based on the cell value in cell named STATE and place the selected value in cell e16. I have, thanks to this resource, one worksheet change event that selects a numeric value from any column E3,F3:F7 and places that value in cell C4. but the same code doesn't work for the new worksheet change event.

I'm trying to run a macro anytime cells G2, J2, M2, O2, P2, S2, V2, Y2, AB2, AE2, AH2, AK2, AN2, AQ2 change.
Right now I have the below code which is working well, but I only have it set for G2. Do you know what the notation is to make the target range multiple cells?
Also, I use the xlDown command in my sorting code, but later on it reverts back to "A5:AT60"... is there any way I can remove these specific cell references? I want to avoid having to re-write the macro every time my selection shrinks or expands.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Not Intersect(Target, Range("G2")) Is Nothing Then
Rows("5:5").Select
[Code]....

Below is an example from the ozgrid forum illustrating the worksheet change event. Not sure of the meaning of 'Do nothing if more than one cell is changed" on the 2nd row of the code. Does it means that if a value is entered in other cells, the code will not fire?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
'Do nothing if more than one cell is changed or content deleted
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or IsEmpty(Target) Then Exit Sub
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then
'Ensure target is a number before multiplying by 2
If IsNumeric(Target) Then
'Stop any possible runtime errors and halting code
On Error Resume Next
'Turn off ALL events so the Target * 2 does not _
put the code into a loop.
Application.EnableEvents = False
Target = Target * 2
'Turn events back on
Application.EnableEvents = True
'Allow run time errors again
On Error Goto 0
End If
End If
End Sub

I am running the following code to check if a value = 0 is in specific cells. Because this code on all the cells runs each time any cell in the workbook is calculated, the screen flashes. I would like to stop this screen flashing by having the check done only when the specific cells are exited....

When ever I update my external CSV file and hit refresh all data, I get #REF! Errors. The CSV file has a table that changes daily. Thus the "A" Column has a different number of rows depending on the day. The problem is that Monday the CSV file will contain 700 Rows, while on Friday it will have 200 Rows. I end up with a lot of #REF! Errors friday. How do I write the code so that (A561 for example) does not change regardless if it can reference the target cell or not? I even thought of making a macro that just copied the formula into all of the cells after each refresh, but there must be a better way.
Example code
=IF(A561>0,IF(Start!$H$2="Monday",'calculations-mon-sat'!O561,calculation!O561),"")
=IF(#REF!>0,IF(Start!$H$2="Monday",'calculations-mon-sat'!O567,calculation!O567),"")

Im trying to use an event change to change the sheet name based on a cell value, but my issue is how can I error trap if the sheet name is a duplicate? Here is what I have so far
Sub ChangeName()
On Error GoTo errhandler
Sheets(1).Name = Sheets(1).range("d10")
Exit Sub
errhandler:
MsgBox "sheet name is already exists"

I have added this bit of code to change the apperance of entered time from 0835 to 08:35
UserInput = Target.Value
If UserInput > 1 Then
NewInput = Left(UserInput, Len(UserInput) - 2) & ":" & Right(UserInput, 2)
Application.EnableEvents = False
Target = NewInput
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
And it works like a charm. Except that if the content in one of the cells later is deleted a "Run time error 13" is the result. Debug leeds to the line "If Userinput >1 Then"
Can this error be avoided..?

I have a simple bit of code that fires some code when it detects a change in cell $P$5 but it doesnt work and I cannot understand why - can anyone assist with this one? I am very green but keen:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$p$5" Then
Range("D9:D81"). AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="<>"

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 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: ....

My favorite question in IT was, "Can you recover the file I did not save?" and now I am basically asking the same question.
I have headers on one sheet tied to fields on another sheet. If the user changes a header I would like to display a message that says, "The header you changed, 'OLD MESSAGE HEADER' will no longer match the value on the look-up sheet. DO YOU WANT TO CONTINUE"
If they say no then the old header is restored. Is this possible?

I have looked at the threads concerning cell change events but cannot find a solution to my situation. I have a worksheet with a cell using a validation list. I wish to exicute a procedure whenever the dropdown list is changed in that one cell. Everything I have seen in the Worksheet event threads is evaluating the contents of a cell and I am attempting to exicute if the cell changes.

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

myColumnOne = Range("NPN").Column 'this is column B, NPN is a Named Range of B1
myColumnTwo = Range("NPCH").Column 'this is column E, NPCH is a Named Range of E1
using these variables I want to say
When data is entered into any cell in myColumnOne
first check to see if this same data already exists in myColumnOne
if it does then check to see if in the row where the data already exists, if the corresponding cell in myColumnTwo ISBLANK then MsgBox
if the corresponding cell in myColumnTwo is not blank, allow the data to be entered.
Example:
Col B….Col E
ABC…..xxx

I have not used an event macro before and am trying to one update a cell when changing a cell. I am basically copying a number to another cell that is an input for a calculation and then returning the calculated value back. How do I reference r69 in the code to start the event macro?

I'm trying to create a worksheet change event macro that will change the colour of the cell when you update the value in that cell.
I have column C with 140 rows and when one of the cells in the column is changed by the user, I need the same cell to highlight in yellow. The highlight would then be removed once the user has acted on the change in the value, and that'll be done in another macro.
I understand I need a worksheet change event macro in the specific sheet and need the following code for yellow:
Code:
.Interior.Color = RGB(255,255,0)
, but any further I get stuck as it involves 'target addresses'

I have a code where column K is not responding to a value being deleted out of column J. I've highlighted the portion of the code dealing with this. Deletion should trigger the worksheet_change event to clear out column K as it's supposed to. how to get deletion to take effect?

This is part of a macro in a worksheet_change event. When a cell in column J gets deleted by a user, the corresponding cell in column K should also clear. But it's not responding to the delete.
It DOES clear when the other 2 criteria are met (.cells(1,10) = 0 and .cells(i,5) <> "Annuity"). The worksheet_change event should pick up on the cell deletion, but it's not. And column J is already a trigger for the macro to run, so I'm not sure what's going on. Either the trigger is still wrong, the isempty(.cells(i,10)) is not correct syntax, or this event just doesn't respond to cell deletion.
