Default Run code on "IF" formula result change

Apparently the IF statement doesn't fire the Change event. Can you put your
code into the Timer function and examine the contents of Range("F30")
whenever the timestamps are updated?

I have a formula that changes depending on if the calculation result is
between 2 cell results.

=IF(AND($F$28=E30,$F$28<=G30),"SaveFile","DoNothi ng")
This formula is in cell F30
E30 = 12:00:00
G30 = 12:20:59

I have a timer that is tied to $F$28 which updates the time periodically.
When the time in $F$28 is between E30 & G30, the "IF" formula changes to
"SaveFile". When this happens I want a macro of my choosing to run.
I have tried inputing the following to the specific sheet the formula is on;

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$F$30" And Target.Value = "SaveFile" Then
Call MessageBoc
End If
End Sub

But this does not work. I tried changing Target.Value to Target.FormulaR1C1,
I have tried writing a regular module sub, I have tried everything my limited
mind can think of.
How can I get a macro to run when an "IF" formula result changes to
something specified?
Please help, Thank you in advance!
