Default update cell colour

Only 2 small changes

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
to
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
and
Select Case .Value
to
Select Case ucase(.Value)
to account for lower case c vs C

This is the cell value where the conditional formatting is applied :

=TRANSPOSE('Joe Bloggs'!A5:A255)
(This is another sheet where the data is entered)

This is the macro that defines the colour:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.CalculateFull
On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
Set WatchRange = Range("A1:IV45")
If Not Intersect(Target, WatchRange) Is Nothing Then
With Target
Select Case .Value
Case "C": Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 4
Case "T": Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 44
Case "L": Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 6
Case "I": Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 53
Case "O": Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 37
Case "H": Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
Case "F": Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
Case "0": Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 40
End Select
End With
End If
ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

I've created a conditional formula macro that changes the cell colour

based
on the value enter. The cell value is linked to another cell by an
array
formula, but the colour of the cell doesn't change when the cell value
changes. It will only update when i select the cell, and not

automatically.

Any advice?
