Default Testing for validation property

I would like to test if a cell is validated using a list. However,
the Validation property does not exist by default - it seems that only
validated cells have this property. The code below, therefore,
results in a "Application-defined or object-defined error" when you
change the value of a non-validated cell. I would be grateful to
know what the best way to run this test is. I guess you could use 'On
Error', although this seems hacky.

Many thanks

Jon


Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

If Target.Validation.Type = xlValidateList Then
MsgBox "Do something"
End If




End Sub
