Actually, I wouldn't use Activecell.

I'd use the variable that was passed to the procedure (Target). And I'd make
sure that the case didn't matter:


if lcase(Target.value) = lcase("print ks2") then

The "SelectionChange" part of the statement refers to any movement when you
move from the the cuurent cell in a workbook... The command then works on
the ACTIVECELL statement.

You MUDT not use the word "maro" after Printks2...

To be 100% correct you could say :
If ActiveCell.Value = "Print KS2" Then
call Printks2
End If

Hi, LesG

Can you see what I`m doing wrong? It doesn`t seem to be woking for me!
I`ve typed the following along with my other macros.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If ActiveCell.Value = "Print KS2" Then
Printks2 Macro
End If
End Sub

Printks2 is the name of the macro I want to use. (should I not put the word
Macro after it?)
I have entered Print KS2 in a blank cell.
When I double click in it, it just wants to edit the typing.
Do I need to do something else to that cell?

Also, because the Macro begins "Private Sub Worksheet..." will others be
able to use this; is it part of this worksheet?

Thanks, LesG

assuming you are going to replace controls (buttons) with lables in cells,
press Alt F11 an insert (and amend) the following in the worksheet...

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If ActiveCell.Value = "value in cell" Then
macroname
End If
End Sub

hope this helps, if so click yes

Hi,
have a number of macros wrtten that are currently activated by buttons on
top of cells.
Here is one such macro:
Sub Printall()
'
' Printall Macro
' Macro recorded 17/09/2009 by User
'

'
Range("A10:CF53").Select
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$10:$CF$53"
Range("A1").Select
End Sub

How do I use this to now change to just a cell (double-click) activated macro?
Do I enter the sheet name and cell reference somewhere?
Have read the following from an earlier question but frankly don`t follow
it!!! Sorry


The following in the Worksheet Selection Change event should do the
trick

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B4")) Is Nothing Then Range("B4")
="24"

End Sub

Thanks
