Msgbox when any one of a number of subtotals has been exceeded

[Ironman]

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!

Hi Michael

'If Range("IRONMAN_RUNS_TOTAL") = 200 Then
'Set v = Range("IRONMAN_RUNS_TOTAL")
'If v = 200 Then
'If Sheets("Training Log").Range("H8") = "" Then
'MsgBox "Congratulations! You've just run your 200th Iron Man Run!", vbInformation, "Iron Man Runs"
'Sheets("Training Log").Range("H8") = "1"
'End If
'End If
'End If

 

[Michael M]

run this code in your workbook then retry the worksheet
Also, put a breakpoint in the change event code and see if it fires when something chnages !!

Sub MM1()
With Application
.ScreenUpdating = True
.EnableEvents = True
.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
End With
End Sub

 

[Ironman]

OK, I've put that in a new module and run it, then changed a value to trigger the code, but still no change I'm afraid Michael, sorry, I know it's frustrating for you.

Would it help you if I uploaded the workbook?

 

[Michael M]

Upload please !

So, when did you add line 249 ??
This changes the current region in the code to a single line !! so the code will return zero !!

Agggh, I'm sorry Michael, I must have done that just after I created the table and didn't give it a second thought.

I've now moved it and your code works perfectly now.

Thank you so much for all your time and patience with me on this!

 

[Michael M]

There you go !!
As mentioned previously ....Learn to insert a Breakpoint, then using F8 to step through the code.
While stepping through the code you can hover over variables to see the what value they hold. This usually gives a clue to where the error is !!
To insert a breakpoint simply click in the border of the line where you want the code to stop....that line then turns brown (in most cases)....and when the code runs it stops at that line and the line turns yellow. By using F8, the coe will step through 1 line at a time !

 

[Michael M]

BTW...when you have finished "checking" using a Breakpoint, you will need to turn it back off by clicking in the border again !

 

[Ironman]

OK thanks - I'm just reading about Breakpoints, it's not something I'm familiar with (are you certain it was me you mentioned them to? It's probably my memory though!)

Just a small glitch, it must be because of the row I cut and pasted above the table but I keep getting 2 message boxes saying I've exceeded 2007 and 2004 even though the figure I input is irrelevant to those years.
