Default Worksheet_Change Event

Sam,

Try

Application.EnableEvents =False
'your code here
Application.EnableEvents =True

Otherwise a new Worksheet_Change will be triggered everytime a "#" is entered.

Hello

I am trying to update a range that when a number is entered, a "#" is added to the beginning. I used the following code.

Dim OSCksRange As Range
Dim IntersectRange As Range

Set OSCksRange = Range("OSCKs")
Set IntersectRange = Intersect(Target, OSCksRange)

If Not IntersectRange Is Nothing Then
Target.Value = "#" & Target.Value
End If

If I enter anything into OSCKs range, the event keeps looping and appending '#' until the cell reaches its max number of characters. So I added the following code to the beginning

If Left(Target, 1) = "#" Then
Exit Sub
End If

which solved that problem, but if I delete a character, it puts a "#" in the cell. So I tried adding

If Target.Value = Empty Then
Exit Sub
End If

which solved that problem, but if I delete more than one cell at a time I get a Type mismatch error.

Is there a way to check and see what type of change has taken place, and if a number was entered run my original code?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Sam
