I have created a macro that clears the contents of cell E4 after a two second delay.

What I need is for this macro to automatically run every time E4 changes from empty to 'populated'

And what if it changes from 'populated' to 'populated with another value'? What do you do then?

Here's a Worksheet_Change event that you can use:

Code: 
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

    If Target.Address = "$E$4" Then
        
        If Len(Target.Text) > 0 Then
        
            'here comes your macro to clear the cell
            'do not forget to turn of the events temporarily
        
        End If
        
    End If

End Sub
