Real Time VBA

Hi Experts,

I need a piece of code which execute my module "Copy Trigger Data" on formula out put to text string in Range L2:L1699. Formula given in such a way that if condition is true then it will returns to text string else "".
before execute I require it passes through 2 condition.
For example say cell L3 returns to "Test" via formula.
Need to check
If time is not between 9:40 - 15:30 & M3="" then put M3="Zzz" & Exit
if time is between 9:40 - 15:30 & M3<>"Posted" then put M3="Posted" & execute "Sub Copy Trigger Data" Module.

Definitely I need separate module for above procedures & I don't want any human intervention. above procedure run as and when range L2:L1699 changes to Text string from "" i.e. automatic.

See Attached

Thanks

When you say Time is not between 9:40 and 15:30 do you mean the current time of when the cell was modified?

In your module place the following code:

Dim auto As Boolean
Public Sub CheckChange(ByVal rng As Range)
    Dim xls As Worksheet, xrng As Range
    Dim row As Integer
    Dim tm As String
    If auto Then Exit Sub
    auto = True
    Set xls = Sheets("Data")
    If Not Application.Intersect(xls.Range("L2", "L1699"), rng) Is Nothing Then
        row = rng.row
        Set xrng = xls.Range("M" & row)
        tm = Time
        If tm >= #7:40:00 AM# And tm <= #3:50:00 PM# Then
            If xrng.Text <> "Posted" Then
                xrng.Value = "Posted"
                Copy_Trigger_Data
            End If
        Else
            xrng.Value = "Zzz"
        End If
    End If
    auto = False
End Sub

Open in new window

and in the VBA of your worksheet place this code:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    CheckChange Target
End Sub

Open in new window

Mr.Randy Poole,

will you please look in to my WB. what the problem is? just change in column J range 2:13 change to 250%, so as it is referencing column for column L. Column L will return to text "Test". but nothing happen to real time check. returns to macro error.

If you look at the code I posted above, your missing the global
Dim auto As Boolean
above the procedure

Mr.Randy Poole,

yes it is working when i manually enter some thing in column L but not when formula out put to some string. is there any way out ?

Thanks

Randy Poole

So this cell will be populated based on what is in cell j?

Naresh Patel

ASKER

formula in column L is too much bigger, referencing to many cell in same row - returns to Text or "".

Thanks
