Weird behavior on Worksheet_beforedoubleclick event (XL2003)
I have some code that handles the doubleclick event on a target sheet
(relevant code pasted at the bottom of this post). Approximately 30% of the time, when I try to double-click, the selected cell (target) will randomly move to a different cell before my second click, thereby not triggering the double-click event. It doesn't move my cursor; the selected cell (highlighted) will actually suddenly jump to a different cell leaving my cursor over my intended target cell. Example: Cell E31 is selected (single click; the cursor is not within the cell so it is not in edit mode) I double click on cell D20 (very fast, inter-click delay is not an issue) -the first click selects cell D20 ( the box around the cell highlights) as expected -the second click occurs, without moving the mouse Some other random cell is selected, and my code does not fire. While re-testing to write this email, once it jumped to cell D28, another time it jumped to D11. I've not had reason to use the double-click event before, and I've never seen this behavior before- so I'm thinking that just having the double-click event "enabled" may be causing problems. I can't see anything in my code that would cause this behavior. I'm open to any ideas, because I'd really like to get a reliable double-click on a target cell 100% of the time! Note that I added the msgbox to confirm whether the code is firing- when the selection jumps, I don't get the msgbox. When I do get the msgbox, the everything processes as expected (userform and subsequent code all works fine) Thanks, Keith Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean) Msgbox "x" If Target.Rows.Count = 1 And Target.Columns.Count = 1 Then NameVal = Target.Value If NameVal < "" And Target.Row 2 And (Target.Column = 3 Or Target.Column = 4 Or Target.Column = 5) Then UserForm1.show End If End If End Sub |
