HI
I have 2 sets of data I2:I13 and J2:J13
What I want to do is compare the cells and if the cell in I2 is > J2 then a message.
This would be relative ie would compare all cells - I3>J3 ect
This is what I have
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

If Range("I2") > Range("j2") Then
MsgBox "Resource needed exceeds resource available "
End If
If Range("I3") > Range("j3") Then
'MsgBox "Resource needed exceeds resource available "

End If

End Sub

Which works ok but would mean that I will have to write code for each cell.
Must be an easer way!!

Any help would be apriciated

    Dim x   As Long
    
    For x = 2 To 13
        With Cells(x, 9)
            If .Value > .Offset(, 1).Value Then MsgBox "Resource needed exceeds resource available", vbExclamation, "Not Enough Resources"
        End With
    Next x

End Sub
