    Macro Trigger/Event

    Hey all, I am working on a spreadsheet for work that has 3 macros built in. One adds a line of data to a chart from one sheet ("Wind on small elements") to another sheet ("Results"), another clears this chart and the last displays an image based on what is selected in a validated list from one cell. The problem I am having is with the third macro.

    Using Worksheet_calculate() to trigger the macro, it works, but it runs everytime any calculation is done. Is there a way I can stop this?

    It also initially made the other two macros not work until I added a little bit of code to fix it (in bold). It's not the most elegant of solutions as it only solved one of the problems and the screen flashes between sheets a bit more than it should. Is there a way around this?

    I don't have access to my spreadsheet, since it is something I am doing for work, but my code is:

    Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    x = Range("L10").Value
    Range("I8:O8").Copy
    Sheets("Results").Select
         Sheets("Results").Cells(x, 1).Select
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
            False, Transpose:=False
            
            x = Range("L10") + 1
            Range("L10") = x
            Sheets("Results").Select
    End Sub
        
    
    Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
        Sheets("Results").Select
        Sheets("Results").Range("A2:G50").Select
        Selection.ClearContents
        
        Sheets("Wind on small Elements").Select
        Range("L10").Select
        ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "2"
    End Sub
    
    Private Sub Worksheet_calculate()
    Sheets("Wind on small Elements").Select
    If Range("P42") = "Commentary I Figure I-9 (<7°)" Then
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Rectangle 1137").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Fig9").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    Exit Sub
    ElseIf Range("P42") = "Commentary I Figure I-11 (7 - 27° gabled)" Then
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Rectangle 1137").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Fig11a").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    Exit Sub
    ElseIf Range("P42") = "Commentary I Figure I-11 (27 - 45° gabled)" Then
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Rectangle 1137").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Fig11b").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    Exit Sub
    ElseIf Range("P42") = "Commentary I Figure I-12 (10 - 30° gabled)" Then
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Rectangle 1137").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Fig12a").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    Exit Sub
    ElseIf Range("P42") = "Commentary I Figure I-12 (30 - 45° gabled)" Then
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Rectangle 1137").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Fig12b").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    Exit Sub
    ElseIf Range("P42") = "Commentary I Figure I-13 (3 - 10°)" Then
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Rectangle 1137").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Fig13a").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    Exit Sub
    ElseIf Range("P42") = "Commentary I Figure I-13 (10 - 30°)" Then
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Rectangle 1137").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Fig13b").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    Exit Sub
    ElseIf Range("P42") = "Commentary I Figure I-14 (10 - 30°)" Then
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Rectangle 1137").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    ActiveSheet.Shapes("Fig14").Select
    Selection.ShapeRange.ZOrder msoBringToFront
    Exit Sub
    End If
    End Sub
