Is there a way in excel (VBA) to mark any change in a row (A2-A10) for example with an identifier if any cell in that row is changed. So for if A2 changes, add an X in A1
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A2:A10")) Is Nothing And Target <> "" Then '<- If there is any change in area A2:A10 and the value of the affect cell IS NOT empty then
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value = "X"
ElseIf Not Intersect(Target, Range("A2:A10")) Is Nothing And Target = "" Then '<- If there is any change in area A2:A10 and the value of the affect cell IS empty then
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value = ""
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
You can have a macro function to change the value or add new value when anything changes in the source cell.
This macro will be on the rows where the change needs to be recorded.

I am trying to track data in a laboratory.
Goal. When the value in cell P3 changes to "yes", then cells Q3:AE3 are locked. However, if "yes" does not appear in cell P3, then cells Q3:AE3 are unlocked.
I need to loop through column P locking/unlocking cells with respect to the row each P value is located.
For example if P36 = "Yes", the Q36:AE36 would become locked.
Edit: This code works with line P3. How can I make this loop through P3:P500?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Range("P3") = "Yes" Then
Range("Q3:AE3").Locked = True
ElseIf Range("P3") = "No" Then
Range("Q3:AE3").Locked = False
ElseIf Range("P3") = "" Then
Range("Q3:AE3").Locked = False
End If
End Sub
This will handle any number of values being changed in column P. Provide your password as needed.
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
'did any cells in column P change
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range("P1").EntireColumn) Is Nothing Then
Me.Unprotect "password"
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In Intersect(Target, Me.Range("P1").EntireColumn)
Me.Range("Q" & cell.Row & ":AE" & cell.Row).Locked = UCase$(cell.Value) = "YES"
Next
Me.Protect "password"
End If
End Sub
I have a cell which i declared as active cell using developers tool in excel
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Range("C1").Value = ActiveCell.Value
End Sub
this cell is equals to the value of a drop down cell i created from data validation.
My Problem is cell C1 is not changing when i select a new value from the drop down
Here you go. When B1 is changed C1 is assigned the value of B1. It doesn't matter how the change was carried out, from the keyboard or by selection from a drop-down.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = Range("B1").Address Then
' prevent the coming change from causing a call of this procedure
Application.EnableEvents = False
Cells(1, "C").Value = Target.Value
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub
I have rows from 1-100.
I know how to target specific cells and get data from them, but how would I do this when any row from 1 to 100 can be changed?
Say you put anything into Row A3. How would you write "Updated" into row B3 via VBA?
I want this to apply to rows A1-A100.
Thanks
Place the following event macro in the worksheet code area:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim A As Range, Intersection As Range, Cell As Range
Set A = Range("A1:A100")
Set Intersection = Intersect(Target, A)
If Intersection Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
For Each Cell In Intersection
Cell.Offset(0, 1).Value = "Updated"
Next Cell
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Open VBA Editor
Double click on the sheet you event take action (sheets appears in the left top box)
Select Worksheet on the left box above code box
Select change on the right box above code box
Paste the code
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
If Not Intersect(Target, .Range("A1:A100")) Is Nothing Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
.Range("B" & Target.Row).Value = "Updated"
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End With
End Sub
I am using following macro to show value of clicked cell (range A5:A200) in A1 cell:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Selection.Count = 1 Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A5:A200")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A1").Value = Selection.Value
End If
End If
End Sub
...and it works great. Additionally in A2 I'd like to show related value from C column.
Example:
I click on A10 -> and see the value in A1, then in A2 i'd like to see the value from C10 cell
You can utilize the .row property of Selection. But, you already have Target being used from the arugument within the Worksheet_Selection() event as your "Selection" range, and using that range is preferred over using selection.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count = 1 Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A5:A200")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A1").Value = Target.Value
Range("A2").Value = Cells(Target.row, "C")
End If
End If
End Sub
So replace your selection ranges with Target, and use the row property within Cell() to get your value from the C column.
Hope someone can answer us.
We want to do the following:
When a value is entered in A1, this value is added to the value of B1.
We then want the value of A1 too reset to 0, but keep the value of B1
Is this possible in excel?
On the worksheet's VBA private module (right-click the report tab and hit "View Code"), enter the following code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target.Address = Range("a1").Address Then
Range("b1") = Range("b1") + Range("a1")
Range("a1").ClearContents
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Worksheet_Change is called whenever a change is made to the worksheet.
Application.EnableEvents=False prevents the code from running continuously (without it, the change to B1 would also call Worksheet_change).
This code assumes that the value in B1 is always numeric (or blank). If it may contain character text, then a check will need to be put in place to either reset its value or not do the increment.
Using simoco's suggestion:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim A1 As Range
Set A1 = Range("A1")
If Intersect(Target, A1) Is Nothing Then
Else
Application.EnableEvents = False
With A1
.Offset(0, 1) = .Offset(0, 1) + .Value
.ClearContents
End With
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub
