Thanks for replying. I got it covered in the end, used
Cells(Target.Row,x) like the following:

If Target.Column = 4 And (Target.Row 1 And Target.Row < 51) Then

a = Trim(Cells(Target.Row, Target.Column))

If a = "" Then
For n = 7 To 12
Cells(Target.Row, n) = ""
Next
Else

qty = AbsFromPack(a) ' grab the quantity required to
absolute

PackCal (Target.Row) ' calculate the pack details

numpacks = qty / (Cells(Target.Row, 12))
If numpacks < Int(numpacks) Then numpacks = Int(numpacks)
+ 1 ' if we have a fraction of a pack, then bump it up to the next qty

If Cells(Target.Row, 12) < "???" Then
'calculate the cost of the packs
Cells(Target.Row, 7) = numpacks: Cells(Target.Row, 8)
= (Cells(Target.Row, 5) / Cells(Target.Row, 12)) * qty
End If

End If
End If

One way:

You can get the cell reference from the Worksheet_Change() event's
Target argument:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
With Target
If .Address(False, False) = "A1" Then
.Value = x ' "do some work on it"
.Offset(0, 3).Value = y ' "update some cells on the same row"
End If
End With
End Sub

I have a specific problem that i would welcome comment or advice on:

I have a worksheet that may or may not have a value entered ina
specific cell. When a value is entered I need to grab that, do some
work on it and update some cells on the same row.

How on earth do I grab the reference for the cell that just changeds
and how do i pick from that the row in order to address the cells
further along.

This sounds pretty basic but I have been scratching my head for two
days now and can't seem to find a solution when googling - most likely
I just can't get the wording right - I get loads of stuff but none of
it really suits what i'm after.... HELP!!!
