byval target as range

[mgblair]

How do I make a sub run when a specific cell is selected, as opposed to running any time a cell is changed? Is it possible also to make a subroutine run when I press "Enter"?

Thank you

Use the Selection Change event handler as opposed to the Change event handler.

I suspect pressing Enter would be considered a change ... but maybe not. Have you tried it?

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

End Sub

^ That is what I would normally do. What I mean is, what if I want the sub to run when I select, say, cell A3?

Check the Address of Target.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address="$A$3" Then
.

.
End If:End Sub
