Default Enter code by a macro

It is possible to write code that writes code. Chip Pearson shows how he
http://www.cpearson.com/excel/vbe.aspx

But this will only mask your problem until someone does a copy|paste the same
way your code does.

You could tell excel to stop looking for selection changes:

application.enableevents = false
'your code to copy
application.enableevents = true

But this is only masking the problem, too.

I think I'd try to fix the code.

Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
' Enter code here via a Macro?

End Sub

If so how?

I have copied the code to another module named Replace VBA.

But how can i copy the code from there to the WorkSheet_SelectionChange
event by a macro?

I had a mass of code in the Worksheet_SelectionChange event, but found a
copy/paste error was generated because some of the cells were also in the
Worksheet_SelectionChange.

So i figured(IF POSSIBLE), i could have the Worksheet_SelectionChange empty,
until AFTER the Copy/Paste macro is run, then repopulate the
Worksheet_SelectionChange with the code from the ReplaceVBA.
