Default Prompting a macro to run on change of cell content

I'm very new to VBA, but have had a bit of programming experience in th
past. I'm working with Excel 2000. What I want to do is associate a
imbedded image with each item in a drop down list so that when an ite
is selected from the list the corresponding image is displayed at
specified location. The way I have it set up is with all images use
being located in the same worksheet off of the viewable/print area.
When the macro runs, the apporpriate image is copied and pasted to th
specified cell. Here is what I have now.

Sub test()
'
' test Macro
' Macro created 4/14/2004 by x
'

'
If Range("C2") = Range("A2") Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Image1").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("B10").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End If
If Range("C2") = Range("A3") Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Image2").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("B10").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End If
If Range("C2") = Range("A4") Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Image3").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("B10").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End If
End Sub

Cell C2 contains the drop down menu with the range A2:A4 as the vali
data. Image1, Image2, and Image3 are embedded in the worksheet. Th
code works fine when the macro is run, but it need the macro to ru
automatically when a new selection is made - -ie, the macro needs t
run when the contents of cell C2 are changed- .

Any suggestions? Any other vital info I need to post that I hav
neglected to mention? My thanks for any assistance or consideratio
rendered
