worksheet_change question
 

I have a spreadsheet that users may update. When they do update a value, I
want to check that it falls within certain ranges dependant on other cells in
the sheet (so I can't use the data validation function). I am using
worksheet_change which works OK in terms of detecting a change, but how can I
find out which cell they have changed. I tried using activecell, but that
does not work if they move to another cell using the mouse, rather than
pressing return. Any Ideas

Thanks

Create duplicate cells that you want to refer to on your input
worksheet. Let's say your input worksheet is Sheet1 and ranges you want
to validate the input against in Sheet 2 and 3.

Sheet1!A1=Sheet2!B10
Sheet1!A2=Sheet3!C45

Now you can use data validation by using values on A1 and A2 on Sheet1.

The argument of the change function is Target as Range and that is the cell
that was just changed... Add this code to your change event to see what I mean

msgbox "Cell " & target.address & " was changed to " & target.value
