Worksheet Change Event
 

What is the best way of identifying if the worksheet change event was
triggered by anything other than a change in the contents of a cell?

I want to be able to handle cell changes but am not interested in other
events such as inserting/deleting rows etc and want to exit the sub in
these situations.

The solution presumably involves some sort of test on the 'target'
range. Any ideas?

Test Target.Count. If a row is inserted/deleted then Target.Count will
be 256. If a column is inserted/deleted it will be 65536.
If a single cell is changed it will be 1.

Hope this helps

Yeh that's good for highlighting a column or row deletion or insertion.
I could do with knowing whether individual cells have bee
inserted/deleted too (the target.cells.count for these situations wil
be 1 when this happens too).

Any other ideas

Hi Rowan,

I do not think that the Worksheet_Change event responds to the insertion of
a row or a column.

Also, I do not think that the event distinguishes between the deletion of
rows or columns and value changes to the entire row/column.

Hi Norman

The worksheet change event does respond to column/row and cell
insertions/deletions.

My original question was whether or not in the code of the event you
coud establish whether the event was triggered as a result of a change
in the contents of a cell or something else (e.g. inserts/deletes).

Hi B,

The worksheet change event does respond to column/row and cell
insertions/deletions.

I agree that deletions trigger the change event; I suggested that (for me)
row/column insertions did not.

Is your experience different and, if so, what version are you using?
