The Change event doesn't occur when cells change during a recalculation.
That sounds like your situation. You could use the Calculate event instead.
That requires a formula similar to: =Today() in a cell on the sheet to force calculation.
Use code like this in the sheet module...
'---
Private vContent As Variant

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
If vContent < Me.Range("B3").Value2 Then
* *MsgBox "hello world"
* *vContent = Me.Range("B3").Value2
End If
End Sub

I'm *obtaining data from a webpage, however the following works when I manually update cell B3,
but doesn't when the cell is updated automatically by the "Get external data from web" function.
Does the "Get external data from web" function inhibit the Worksheet_Change facility? *...and, if
so, how do I make it work.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$b$3" Then
MsgBox "Hello World"
End If
End Sub
Many Thanks.- Hide quoted text -
