Default Help With Runaway Calculation

Hi All,

I need a little guidance. I'm trying to create a Sub that converts
temperature from Fahraneit to Celcius and Celcius to Fahrenheit with the
Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range).
In my sheet I have set up K20 for inputing Deg F and M20 for inputing Deg C.
When you change the value in K20 the corresponding Celcius value is
calculated in M20 and vise versa.

I have often used the following routine for conversions such as this.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

Set isect = Intersect(Target, Range("K20"))
If Not isect Is Nothing Then
Range("M20").Value = ((Target.Value - 32) * (5 / 9))
End If
Set isect = Intersect(Target, Range("M20"))
If Not isect Is Nothing Then
Range("K20").Value = ((Target.Value + 32) * (9 / 5))
End If
End Sub

Usually I just multiply or divide the "Target.Value" by a single integer but
with the scenario above the values in the cells runaway out of control and
return some strange value.
Can someone help shed some light on this.
I'm open to any kind of alternate method of making the conversion happen
when I enter a value into one cell or the other.

If more clarity is required please let me know.

TIA

Pete
