This is just an outline of a possible method:
1. Capture the value of the target cell at the beginning of the procedure and store it in a variable, exmpl: compVal = Range("D10").Value. 2. Incorporate an If ... Then statement at the end of each sub routine that might change the value of cell D10, exmpl: If Range("D10").Value < compVal Then Opt = MsgBox "Range("D10") value has changed to " _ & Range("D10").Value, Run Macro?, vbYesNo, "Choose" If Opt = vbYes Then myMacro End If End If 3. If you will need to check the value again before the porcedure ends then you could just reset the compVal value within the If...Then statement. It is kind of a rustic way to do it. But it can work.

When I detect the change, I need to see if the new numeric value in that cell is not zero; if it's non-zero then I need to activate some code. Unfortunately that cell is changed via a formula - so using Worksheet_Change is apparently not going to work. That is, Worksheet_Change doesn't get triggered for cells of this type. I tried using .OnTimer to repeatedly check the value of that cell, but I couldn't get it to work very well. It seems like there has got to be an easy way to trigger some code to activate when a cell has changed (even for a cell that changes via a formula). Thanks for any help! -Brad |
