Advice would be gratefully appreciated. I am developing a spreadsheet using Excel 2016/Windows.
I have written 4 eventchange subroutines and all work well. The VBA Code for a worksheet checks for 4 events. Event 1, 2 and 3 enter today's date in a cell if data is entered in another cell (code not included below)
Code for EventChange works fine, but sometimes works when not expected to!
EventChange4 moves a value from one cell to another if another cell contains the text in Column J is "THIS Month – Payment Due" or "Issued But Not Paid. The second part of this eventchange4 moves a zero value to 2 cells if the data in column j contains text "not going ahead"
I am new to VBA. The problem is that eventchange4 runs for no apparent reason, e.g. copying a cell value in column H down to another cell in column h. How can I modify the code such that that eventchange4 only runs when the data in Column J Changes??? All advice gratefully accepted!!!!
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Call EventChange_1(Target)
Call EventChange_2(Target)
Call EventChange_3(Target)
Call EventChange_4(Target)
End Sub
Sub EventChange_1(ByVal Target As Range)
'Update on 11/11/2019 -If data changes in column L, insert
'today's date into column M
End Sub
Sub EventChange_2(ByVal Target As Range)
'Update on 15/01/2020 -If data changes in column P, insert today's date
'into next Column Q
End Sub
Sub EventChange_3(ByVal Target As Range)
'Update on 15/01/2020 -If data changes in column R, insert today's date
'into next Column S
End Sub
Sub EventChange_4(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
Application.EnableEvents = False
' this works !
If Target.Column = 10 And (Target.Value = "THIS Month – Payment Due" Or Target.Value = "Issued But Not Paid") Then
Range("K" & Target.Row).Value = Range("I" & Target.Row).Value
Range("I" & Target.Row).Clear
MsgBox "Moved Commission Due to Month Paid"
End If
If Target.Column = 10 And (Target.Value = "Not Going Ahead") Then
Range("I" & Target.Row).Value = 0
Range("K" & Target.Row).Value = 0
MsgBox "Moved ZERO to Initial Commisson and Month Paid"
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Ideally you should update your code so it can properly handle a Target range which is not just a single cell:
Sub EventChange_4(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rng As Range, c As Range, v
'any part of Target in Column J?
Set rng = Application.Intersect(Target, Me.Columns(10))
If Not rng Is Nothing Then
'have some cells to process...
On Error GoTo haveError
Application.EnableEvents = False
'process each affected cell in Col J
For Each c In rng.Cells
v = c.Value
If v = "THIS Month – Payment Due" Or v = "Issued But Not Paid" Then
Range("K" & c.Row).Value = Range("I" & c.Row).Value
Range("I" & c.Row).Clear
MsgBox "Moved Commission Due to Month Paid"
End If
If v = "Not Going Ahead" Then
Range("I" & c.Row).Value = 0
Range("K" & c.Row).Value = 0
MsgBox "Moved ZERO to Initial Commisson and Month Paid"
End If
Next c
End If
haveError:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
NOTE: this is assumed to be in the relevant worksheet code module - otherwise you should qualify the Range() calls with a specific worksheet reference.
All your "change" handlers should follow a similar pattern.
Tim apologies. I am new to this and was anxious to get a solution. Thank you for your response. Advice Noted. T
When I attempt to insert or delete a row in the spreadsheet, the VBA code identifies a worksheet event and attempts to run the code. The spreadsheet crashes. I have attempted to add code that will prevent this by checking at the beginning of the module if a row has been inserted or deleted before the other worksheet change event if statements are checked
Thank you

In The following worksheet macro, I am attempting to perform different actions, depending on the column selected. In 2 cases the action performed depends on the Column selected and the column value.
For example, if a name is entered in column A, the date is automatically entered in column B.
When a drop down value is entered in Column L, date is entered in Column M. If data in column L = "Fees Received" or "Policy No. Issued" data is copied to another worksheet and the date is entered in column m.
All individual components are working. However not all the time.
I need the macro to identify the column and perform the correct action such that I can move from column to column and the macro to constantly run in the background and working correctly for all selected columns.

From what I can see, you need to monitor only 2 columns. Rest of your requirements is just subsets of those requirements.
Your code can be re-written as below (UNTESTED) Let me know if you get any error? Also since you are working with Worksheet_Change, you may want to see THIS.

I'm using an excel sheet to track my working hours. Each row represents a working day and has "date", "time in", "time out", "total working hours", and "daily salary".
I'd like the sheet to automatically create a month summery line every time I write an entry in the next month (i.e if a row with the date 13/3/16 is followed by a row with the date 2/4/16, the second row will be pushed down, and a row with the summery (i.e: total monthly hours, total monthly salary) will be created in between. it should look something like that:
Is that possible? if so, how do I do it?
Thank you for your input!
You should place this code in Sheet Code Module. It worked for me on data organized like your.

I have two macros altogether, one macro assigned to my Private Worksheet_Change event and the other assigned to my Private Worksheet_SelectionChange event like so:
Macro 1
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
'If Hours Column Selected
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("Z" & ActiveCell.Row)) Is Nothing And Range("Z" & ActiveCell.Row).Value <> "" Then
NewValue = Application.InputBox("Please Enter Your Delegated Reference:")

rw2 = ActiveCell.Row
With Worksheets("Data").Columns("I:I")
Set cell2 = .find(What:=NewValue, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlWhole, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False)
If Not cell2 Is Nothing Then
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
cell2.Offset(0, 4).Value = Sheet1.Range("Y" & ActiveCell.Row).Value
cell2.Offset(0, 5).Value = Sheet1.Range("H" & ActiveCell.Row).Value
cell2.Offset(0, 6).Value = Sheet1.Range("I" & ActiveCell.Row).Value
MsgBox "Found"
Sheet1.Range("Y" & ActiveCell.Row).Value = cell2.Offset(0, 1).Value
Sheet1.Range("H" & ActiveCell.Row).Value = cell2.Offset(0, 2).Value

Macro 2
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("Y" & ActiveCell.Row)) Is Nothing Then
myValue3 = MsgBox("This is a message")
End If
End Sub
The problem I have is when I click on my active cell row in column Z I am running macro 1 and asking it to update the value of my active cell row in column Y. However when the information in column Y is updated, it is causing macro 2 to run where I get a msgbox displaying and I don't want this to happen.
Whilst I still require macro 2 and do want the msgbox to display, I only want it to display when I click on the cell in column Y. So in other words, I want to be able to cancel out macro 2 if macro 1 is running.
I have tried using application.displayevents = false in macro 1 but this doesn't work.
Please can someone show me the best way to do this?
you can use
Application.EnableEvents = False
.. at the start of your macro1 to disable events and
Application.EnableEvents = True
To turn it back on again at the end of macro1.
Please try the following:
[1] Add a new Module to your VBA Project, with the following:
Public EventRunning as Boolean
[2] Modify your Worksheet_SelectionChange macro as follows:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
EventRunning=True
...
EventRunning=False
End Sub
[3] Modify your Worksheet_Change as follows:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If EventRunning Then Exit Sub
...

In my sheet columns B:C allow dates. I'm trying to create a check to see whether a date entered in C is more recent than B, if so fine, else alert the user and clear contents.
My code returns a run-time error 91 in the application.intersect line:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Dates As Range
Set Dates = Range("C4:C12")
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or IsEmpty(Target) Then
Exit Sub
End If
If Not Application.Intersect(Dates, Range(Target.Address)).Value > ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Value Then
GoTo DatesMissMatch
Else
Exit Sub
End If
DatesMissMatch:
Target.ClearContents
ActiveCell.Value = "A2"
MsgBox "Please re-check dates"
End Sub
I changed your method, but this seems to be working.
I also noticed that you were writing A2 to ActiveCell instead of Target. Did you want the cell in column C to update if invalid data is entered or did you intend for it to be whichever cell you move to that gets changed?
At any rate, here's a way I came up with it
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or IsEmpty(Target) Then
Exit Sub
End If
If Target.Column = 3 Then 'Check to see if column C was modified
If Target.Value < Target.Offset(0, -1).Value Then
Target.ClearContents
Target.Value = "A2"
MsgBox "Please re-check dates"
End If
End If
End Sub
If you want to stick with the way you are currently doing it, then I think you need to check that the Intersection is not empty as another answer concludes.
I believe you just have to check the intersect than do the compare.
Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Dates As Range
Set Dates = Range("C4:C12")
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or IsEmpty(Target) Then
Exit Sub
End If
If Not Application.Intersect(Dates, Range(Target.Address)) Is Nothing Then
If Target.Value < Target.Offset(0, -1).Value Then
GoTo DatesMissMatch
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End If
DatesMissMatch:
Target.ClearContents
ActiveCell.Value = "A2"
MsgBox "Please re-check dates"
End Sub
You can just loop the rows and compare the dates.
Dim ws As Excel.Worksheet
Set ws = Application.ActiveSheet
Dim lRow As Long
lRow = 4
Do While lRow <= ws.UsedRange.Rows.count

GoTo DatesMissMatch
End if
lRow = lRow + 1
Loop
Here is the situation
Columns A through G are designed as drop down lists (data validation): Name, Number, ID, Phone, etc. Upon arrival to the office, each employee must fill their information into each cell of the row, in columns A to G.
What I want from a VBA code:
Only when each cell is filled in A:G, the date and time is stamped in the corresponding cell, in column H. It is permanent. It doesn't change ever. And once the date is stamped, the cells Columns A:G are locked as well.
My coding so far:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Column = 1 Then
Target.Offset(0,1) = Now
End If
End Sub
This timestamp only works when cells in column A are changed :(
Should I be using a "case select" statement?
Is this what you are trying? (TRIED AND TESTED)
