Default running a macro on every refresh of the screen

I did a paste all - link from several other excel
spreadsheets. I notice when I update them the master
spreadsheet is updated with new values. I tried to
trigger the macro and the funny thing was it would
trigger when i updated one of the subsidiary spreadsheets
but not on the others, although the updates did happen.

Hi Wayne,

Are you referring to DDE, web queries, or something else?

Does this work when a cell is paste linked to another

on change event?

Hi shovit,

Yes - you can use the Worksheet_Change event

subroutine to do this.
To get there, just right-click the worksheet's tab in

Excel and
select View Code. Then, change the left dropdown

above the code
module to Worksheet, then change the right dropdown

to Change. Call
your macro from that subroutine, and each time any

cell on the
Worksheet changes, your macro will be executed.

Hi,

I have a spreadsheet which is linked to live feeds

from say
Reuters. I need to write a macro which auto-runs

itself every time
the spreadsheet refreshes, or there is change in any

of its cells.
Something to the effect "On every refresh, Do bla

bla bla". Is there
a way to implement this in VB?

TIA
