Default AUTOMATIC EXECUTION

Apologies.

I usually add instructions on where to place the code.

An oversight this time.

I finally figured it out (it wasn't obvious) - that I must enter the "Change"
macro in the sheet rather than for the workbook!!!

Thank you. It's just what I've been looking for for the last few months.

I would like to execute a macro every time the "Enter" key is depressed (or
an entry is made to an Excel cell). Is there a way to do this with a special
macro (Visual Basic)? Or, is there another way?
