I can't seem to get this VBA to go to E15 !
Otherwise, it is fine.

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
If Range("E24").Value > "1" Then
MsgBox "CLEAR"
ActiveSheet.Range("E15").Select
End If
End Sub

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Do you get the message box? Does it work if you remove the quotes?

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
If Range("E24").Value > 1 Then
MsgBox "CLEAR"
ActiveSheet.Range("E15").Select
End If
End Sub

Jut replace first line with this:

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

Ha, Ha you're faster than me. :) I think he should added to the "change" not to calculate to execute that.

Calculate is a strange one to use but if the OP presses F9 it should go to E15
Not sure if the OP wants it to execute when they change E24 or not (just changing the Sub line without defining a Target means it will fire on any cell change on the sheet, almost the same as using calculate), it would help if the OP stated exactly what they are trying to do.

I got the message box, but still will not goto e15

Are you triggering the calculate from the same sheet as the code is on and can you describe in words exactly what you are trying to do.

If you change the code to the code below does the 2nd message box give you what you expect?

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
    If Range("E24").Value > 1 Then
        MsgBox "CLEAR"
        MsgBox ActiveSheet.Parent.Name & " " & ActiveSheet.Name
        ActiveSheet.Range("E15").Select
    End If
End Sub

Try
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
If Range("E24").Value > 1 Then
MsgBox "CLEAR"
ActiveSheet.Range("E15").Activate
End If
End Sub

e24 is a countif formula to see if there are duplicates in a range in column D.
So, if there are duplicates the message box appears, I say OK and clear the duplicates with a macro.
Going to e15 would be the spot to reenter contents into column D if there was a duplicate and e15 contents would be added to column d via another macro.

I'll just forget about going to e15.
The RSVPs here are beyond my knowledge base.

A great deal of what I do with this is elementary, but works for me most of the time.
Thanks

I would be trying to avoid using the Calculate event

e24 is a countif formula to see if there are duplicates in a range in column D.
I have assumed that range in column D is D15:D24 (edit the range in the code below as required) and used this Worksheet_Change code instead.
To test, remove any of the other event codes that may still be in the worksheet's code module.

BTW, is the worksheet 'Protected'?

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
  If Not Intersect(Target, Range("D15:D24")) Is Nothing Then
    If Range("E24").Value > 1 Then
      MsgBox "CLEAR"
      Range("E15").Select
    End If
  End If
End Sub

and e15 contents would be added to column d via another macro.
I suspect that your other macro may be affecting what is happening with the other suggestions here, including mine.
It would probably help clear things up if we saw that macro too.

Thanks for your help, but I have decided to forget the E15 and go with what I have. My knowledge base is too elementary.
I am not close to the level of knowledge here.

I apologize for any inconvenience.
