Default worksheet change event doesn't work

I have the following simple code for example reasons. For some reason,
when the range "attn" is changed, the macro won't operate.

Here is the simple code I have:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal attn As Excel.Range)

Application.EnableEvents = False

MsgBox "hello"


Application.EnableEvents = True

End Sub

There is code to be inserted where the msgbox is. Any suggestions are
greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Greg

You don't want to change the procedu
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

But you can check to see if the range Attn was in the range that got changed.
(Attn is a range name on that sheet???)

Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

Dim myCell As Range
Dim myIntersect As Range

Set myIntersect = Nothing
On Error Resume Next
Set myIntersect = Intersect(Target, Me.Range("attn"))
On Error GoTo 0

If myIntersect Is Nothing Then
'not in there
Exit Sub
End If

For Each myCell In myIntersect.Cells
MsgBox myCell.Address
Next myCell

End Sub

Yes, "attn" is the range name on the worksheet. When data is entered
into the "attn" range, I want the macro to commence.
