Excel msgbox when cell range is clicked
 
I want to have a msgbox appear when any cell in the workbook is selected.
How is this done.

Hi,

Di you really mean any cell!! If you do then right click your worksheet,
view code and paste this in.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
MsgBox "You just clicked " & Target.Address
End Sub

Or for when you click in a certain range

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1:A10")) Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "You just clicked " & Target.Address
End If
End Sub

Seems rather annoying to me but add this code to Thisworkbook module.

Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, _
ByVal Target As Range)
MsgBox "annoying message"
End Sub
