action upon selection
 

I have a cell I2, which is validated to a dropdown list, and everytime
someone selects something from that list, I need a macro to run. Is there
some simple code I can put into the sheet, book, or whatever (2007 Excel),
which accomplished this? I know there were action-triggered macro methods
before, but I was never really certain how they worked. If you do happen to
know how to do this and respond, please assume I'm a novice at this, and help
me understand where specifically I am supposed to be put any code provided.
Will help greatly. Thanks.

hi ,

Place code below in your sheet's module:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$I$2" Then yourmacro
'noted that macro 'yourmacro' must be exist
End Sub

and "$I$2" is case sensitive
