What cell caused the worksheet change event
I want to run a routine on my worksheet when the change event happens. This
event requires me to know the row and column of the cell that was changed, but if the user pressed return to complete the entry them the cursor moved down the the next row and if they press the Tab key it moves to the next column. Is there any way to find out which cell was changed? |

Worksheet_Change has one argument and that is Target which is the range that
was changed so this should work for you... Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) MsgBox Target.Column & " - " & Target.Row End Sub You might be thinking of selection change where target returns the currently selected range. -- HTH...

you can set the last range to a static value
Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range) Static OldRange As Range dim i as integer dim j as integer if not OldRange is nothing then i = OldRange.row j = OldRange.column end if set OldRange = Target End Sub Keith wrote: I want to run a routine on my worksheet when the change event happens.
