Missing code
 

I need help with the following code. The following code works except that if
the cell already has a valid value and the user types in a new valid value it
reverts back to the original value that was in the cell. It only accepts the
new valid value if the cell is blank or if the new value is picked off the
dropdown of the Data Validation / List .... dropdown list. But I need it
to also work if the user types in a new valid value over an already existing
valid value ; I want it to keep the new valid value then also.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

Application.EnableEvents = False
On Error GoTo NotFound:
If ActiveCell.Column = 3 Then
With Target
.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup( _
.Value, Range("Categories"), 1, False)
End With
End If

GoTo Found:
NotFound:
Target.Value = ""

Found:
Application.EnableEvents = True

End Sub

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for your help.
