also, as a precaution, add an onerror so that if you

fall out, you always
re-enable, like

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
'your code

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Hi DBAL

You can stop the running of the events when your macro

do his work like
this

Application.EnableEvents = flase
'your code
Application.EnableEvents = True

Hey all, good to come out here again.
I have some VBA that executes in "Private Sub
Worksheet_Change", and it takes place whenever the

user
updates or makes changes to data on the

spreadsheet. The
user actually only makes changes in the C column but

the
rest of the spreadsheet refreshes accordingly.

Anyway, part of my VBA access another Sheet and

copies
info from there to this sheet while also updating

all the
cells of the columns (except the C column).

THE PROBLEM: As soon as the VBA starts changing the
values on this sheet, it re-executes the "Private Sub
Worksheet_Change" again and starts the Macro all over
before it ever finishes. It gets caught in a never
ending cycle?? So the VBA is activating itself

because
it produces a Worksheet_Change. But I only want it

to
run when the user changes a value in the C column????

I want to use "Worksheet_Change" instead of having a
button that the user has to remember to push. What

can I
do? Please advise.

DBAL
