Default Programmatically Adding a Worksheet_Change Event Procedure to a Pr

Another possibility, depending on what the code is supposed to do, might be
to use the Workbook's SheetChange event which allows you to check which
sheet the change took place on along with the target range which changed.

I wouldn't approach it this way -- especially if you're supporting a group
of
users.

For this kind of code to work, each user will have to have their security
settings set to allow access to the VBE. And your code can't control that
setting.

And if the workbook's project is protected, then you're in trouble with
that
setting, too.

Instead, if this is just a single workbook that needs this, I'd create a
new
sheet with all the event code that I wanted already in it -- in fact, I'd
format
it, add controls, pictures, headers, page setup, ... all the stuff I know
has to
be done anyway.

Then instead of adding a new sheet, I'd just copy this template sheet and
use
that copy.

If I had lots of workbooks that needed this same worksheet, then I'd
create a
new workbook with that single sheet (and all the stuff I wanted!) and then
just
add that sheet to the existing workbook.

I am using Excel 2003 and have added a script to add a Worksheet_Change
Event
to an Added Worksheet. I receive the following error: Error -2147417848
(80010108): The object invoked has disconnected from its clients.



I have referenced the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications
Extensibility
5.3. I understand this script would run in the background and naming
VBProject as an Object and using the CreateObject as Microsoft describes
in
Article ID: 319832 - Last Review: February 1, 2007 - Revision: 5.3

INFO: Error or Unexpected Behavior with Office Automation When You Use
Early
Binding in Visual Basic
does not work.



Here is a portion of the script and where the ERROR occurs:



Dim wsn As String

Dim VBProj As VBIDE.VBProject

Dim VBComp As VBIDE.VBComponent

Dim CodeMod As VBIDE.CodeModule

Dim LineNum As Long

Const DQUOTE = """"



wsn = ActiveSheet.Name



Application.EnableEvents = False

Set VBProj = ActiveWorkbook.VBProject

Set VBComp =
VBProj.VBComponents(Worksheets(wsn).CodeName).Code Module

Set CodeMod = VBComp.Document



With CodeMod

LineNum = .CountOfLines + 1

.InsertLines LineNum, "Option Explicit" & vbCrLf

LineNum = LineNum + 1

.InsertLines LineNum, vbCrLf

LineNum = LineNum + 1

.InsertLines LineNum, _

"Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)" &
vbCrLf

LineNum = LineNum + 1 (Here is where I receive the ERROR)

.InsertLines LineNum, "Dim rngDV As Range" & vbCrLf

LineNum = LineNum + 1

.InsertLines LineNum, "Dim oldVal As String" & vbCrLf
