Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range
Dim selection, val, cel
selection = ActiveCell ' should be sheet1 with range e1:e20 the only cells able to cause this to star
val = worksheets("sheet2").Range("e13:e200"
For Each cell In va
If cell = selection The
ActiveCell.Activate ' should link to first cell on sheet2 with matching value and highlight the row of this cel
worksheets("sheet2").Activat
End I
Nex

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Is this what you're looking for ?

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As
Range)
Dim TableRng As Range, C As Range
Set TableRng = Sheets("Sheet2").Range("E13:E200")
For Each C In TableRng
C.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
If C.Value = Target.Value Then
Sheets("Sheet2").Activate
C.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 6
End If
Next
End Sub

Follow-up on my post:

You'll probably also want to scroll to the row that is
highlighted. I include code to do this and to correct the
bug if the user selects more than one cell.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As
Range)
Dim TableRng As Range, C As Range
On Error Resume Next
Set TableRng = Sheets("Sheet2").Range("E13:E200")
For Each C In TableRng
If Target.Count = 1 Then
C.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
If C.Value = Target.Value Then
Sheets("Sheet2").Activate
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = C.Row - 5
C.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 6
End If
End If
Next
End Sub

Regards,
Greg
