Worksheet Selection Change
 

I have an if/then statement on the worksheet "Change"
method that checks the value of 'target' and acts
accordingly. It works except when you use 'Delete' to
empty out the cell. I get a data mismatch error. I'm
guessing it's because target can't equal 'null'. Is there
any way around this?

Thanks in advance

It would be most helpful if you posted the code that is causing the problem.

if isempty(Target) then exit sub

at the top is a possibility.

or

if not isempty(target) then
' other checks

End if

thanks again- works great (saved me from an ActiveCell
workaround)

I read this as trying to clear the contents of a range.

if you were doing
Target.delete

try:

Application.enableevents = false
target.clearcontents
application.enableevents = true

Disabling events means that changing the sheet in code doesn't cause the change
event to fire.
