"Enter Key"
 

I have a cell with combo box (data validation). When I choose an item
from this drop down list, It puts a number in cell G10. When there is a
number in G10 and I press ENTER on the keyboard, various other cells in
this sheet do a "LOOKUP" function on different sheets throughout the
workbook. What I'd like to know if there is a way, when a number is put
into G10, that excel will "enter" it without me having to press the
ENTER key on keyboard?

First thing I'd look at is:
Tools|Options|Calculation tab|make sure it's set for automatic.

There is a problem with the worksheet change event firing in xl97 when the
change is through Data|Validation and the DV relies on a list on a worksheet.

Is that the macro that you're hoping to run?

Debra Dalgleish shows the problem and offers a workaround at:

If i remove the Data Validation and enter the number in manually the
macro runs fine. I dont know much about sheet change events. Do I have
to set it to True or False, or will that not help?
