Hello there,

I need to react to the data that a user may enter into
certain cells (XL XP).

How can I programmatically catch the entry that has
been made ?

Help greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

HG,

You need the Worksheet_Change event.

You test for what has been entered by testing the Target argument. For
instance, if you want to react to all changes in column N, use

If Target.Column = 14 Then

If you want to test for cells B5:G7 say, use

If (Not Intersect(Target,Range("B5:G7")) Is Nothing) Then

and then do your stuff.

As this is worksheet code, it goes into the worksheet code module.

Use the Change event procedure in the Sheet's code module. E.g.,

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Select Case Target.Address
Case "$A$1", "$B$2", "$C$3"
MsgBox "You changed one of these cells"
Case Else
MsgBox "You changed cell " & Target.Address
End Select
End Sub

Thank you !

I had tried to work with the "Selection_Change" event,
but with "Worksheet_Change" you pointed me to the right direction !
