Validation List Question
 

I have a data validation list with a number of states in it. Each time I
select a new state I want 2 macros to run. The list is in cell A4 of Sheet
1. Here is the code I am using at the worksheet level, can someone tell me
what I'm doing wrong?

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "A4" Then
pp_maj_macro
pp_minor_macro
End If
End Sub

Thanks so much,
Dave

Validation List Question
 

Target.Address will return $A$4.

You could use:

If Target.Address = "$A$4" Then
or
If Target.Address(0,0) = "A4" Then
or (what I like)
if intersect(target,me.range("a4")) is nothing then exit sub

I find the last one easiest to modify (for multiple cells/ranges).

I tried the first 2...but they're not working.

I put a message box in to verify that it's getting past the if statement,
and that's working fine, but the macros aren't running. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Dave

I put a data validation dropdown in cell A4 and filled it from a list of
states in another column

then right clicked on the sheet tab and selected view code. I pasted in
this:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$4" Then
'pp_maj_macro
'pp_minor_macro
MsgBox Target.Address
End If
End Sub


then went back to excel and selected a state. Worked fine for me xl2003.
If you are using xl97, this situation does not trigger the change event.
Another possibility is that you have code that disables events.

sub ReEnableEvents()
Application.EnableEvents = True
End sub

Put in a general module and run it.

Validation List Question
 

If the macros are in a general module in the same workbook, they should run.

If they are not defined, you should get an error. Otherwise they should
run. It is possible you have error handling in the subs and that causes
them to appear not to run. Possibly Put message boxes at the top of each
sub.

The macros are in a module in the same workbook and there is no error
handling. The macros run if I select them, however they still do not run
when I select a new state. I am baffled.

Best I can offer is to take a look at the workbook if you want to email it.
