Hi

A2:A243 (which is added to regularly) contains values and subtotals for each year.

The subtotals for each year are identified in blue and by a formula in Column B.

I need a message box to appear when the value in cell A245 exceeds a subtotal.

If a trigger cell is needed, then C245 can be used (so I can easily see it), although this will need to change when a new entry is added.

Many thanks!

Maybe if I relocated it at the top, to the right of the data,
Any time you have differing sets of data in the same columns you are going to have coding issues, if they are not working together

Excel Facts

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
Ahh, OK. I guess this one isn't straight forward for you. I can always conditional format another cell to highlight some text to alert me instead?

Ok, try it this way....leave the data set where it is currently
VBA Code:
Sub MM4()
Dim r As Long, lr As Long, n As Integer, fr As Long
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = Range("A" & lr).CurrentRegion
fr = rng.Row + 1
n = Evaluate("=MAX(IF(C" & fr & ":C" & lr - 1 & "<C" & lr & ",C" & fr & ":C" & lr - 1 & ",""""))")
For r = lr - 1 To fr Step -1
If n = Cells(r, 3) Then
    MsgBox "You've just surpassed the number of runs for " & Cells(r, 3).Offset(0, -1).Value
    Exit For
End If
Next
End Sub

AND for both columns
VBA Code:
Sub MM1()
Dim r As Long, lr As Long, n As Integer, fr As Long, X As Integer
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = Range("A" & lr).CurrentRegion
fr = rng.Row + 1
n = Evaluate("=MAX(IF(C" & fr & ":C" & lr - 1 & "<C" & lr & ",C" & fr & ":C" & lr - 1 & ",""""))")
X = Evaluate("=MAX(IF(F" & fr & ":F" & lr - 1 & "<F" & lr & ",F" & fr & ":F" & lr - 1 & ",""""))")
For r = lr - 1 To fr Step -1
If n = Cells(r, 3) Then
    MsgBox "You've just surpassed the number of runs for " & Cells(r, 3).Offset(0, -1).Value
    n = 100
    End If
If X = Cells(r, 6) Then
    MsgBox "You've just surpassed the number of runs for " & Cells(r, 6).Offset(0, -1).Value
    Exit For
End If
Next r
End Sub

Hey Michael you're spoiling me ;)

I used #13 and changed a value to make it trigger the msgbox and it worked, but only once

I then replaced it with #14 and changed a value in both columns (1 at a time) to make it trigger the msgbox for each of the columns and it didn't work (no error, no msgbox)

I then went back to #13, changed a value to make it trigger the msgbox and again, it didn't work (no error, no msgbox)

I saved and exited the workbook, went back in, changed a value to make it trigger the msgbox but still no error and no msgbox.

Did you change it to a Worksheet_Change event AND put it in the correct sheet module ??

Try this modified...edited.
VBA Code:
Sub MM41()
Dim r As Long, lr As Long, n As Integer, fr As Long, X As Integer
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = Range("A" & lr).CurrentRegion
fr = rng.Row + 1
n = Evaluate("=MAX(IF(C" & fr & ":C" & lr - 1 & "<C" & lr & ",C" & fr & ":C" & lr - 1 & ",""""))")
X = Evaluate("=MAX(IF(F" & fr & ":F" & lr - 1 & "<F" & lr & ",F" & fr & ":F" & lr - 1 & ",""""))")
For r = lr - 1 To fr Step -1
If n = Cells(r, 3) Then
    MsgBox "You've just surpassed the number of runs <= 3 hrs for " & Cells(r, 3).Offset(0, -1).Value
    n = 100
    End If
If X = Cells(r, 6) Then
    MsgBox "You've just surpassed the number of runs > 3hrs for " & Cells(r, 6).Offset(0, -1).Value
    X = 100
End If
Next r
End Sub

Sure did. I just excluded "subMM1()" and "End Sub" as there's another change event in the sheet but the other sub can't be an issue as it was already there on the only occasion the code worked.

I added a couple of formulas at the bottom of column F that would highlight a message with conditional formatting if the rank changed. I removed those just in case but it made no difference, still not working, wish I knew why it worked only once and nothing since.

Here's the entire sheet code FYI
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal target As Range)

Ok,
1. type CTRL +G and open the Immediates window
Type in
VBA Code:
 application.EnableEvents=True
and press enter...rerun the code
2. what range is Range("IRONMAN_RUNS_TOTAL") ??
It should be something more like If range (yourcell range)="IRONMAN_RUNS_TOTAL" then...unless it's a named range

IRON_RUNS_TOTAL is a named range, single cell A248 (2 rows below the table) - the table runs from A224:A246 (row 246 is for 2021)
