Right click on the sheet tab and select view code.

In the resulting module, at the top, in the left dropdown, select Worksheet
and in the right dropdown, select SelectionChange

This puts in a declaration for the selectionchange event

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

End Sub

Target is a range reference to the cell selected by the user using the
methods you describe (or any other way they get there).

You can then test if Target is in your range

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
if target.count 1 then exit sub
if not intersect(target, Range("A1:B50")) is nothing then
' selected cell is in the range A1:B50

End if
End Sub

If your code will select another cell inside that range, then you would need
to turn events off (and back on again when done) so you don't get recursive
calls to the event.
