Trouble with raising custom events...

I'm having issues raising a custom event.

I have the following code in Class1 module:
VBA Code:
Option Explicit

Private WithEvents app As Application
Private rng As Range
Public Event DAD(OldRange As Range, NewRange As Range, Worksheet As Worksheet)

Private Sub app_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
    
    Dim r As Range
    
    If (rng Is Nothing) Then Exit Sub
    
    If (rng.Address <> Target.Address) Then
        If (rng.Count = Target.Count) Then
               
            RaiseEvent DAD(Target, rng, Sh)
          
        End If
    End If
    
End Sub

Private Sub app_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
    
    Set rng = Target
    
End Sub

Private Sub Class_Initialize()

    Debug.Print "Class init"
    
    Set app = Application
    
End Sub

and the following in ThiwWorkbook module:

VBA Code:
Option Explicit

Private WithEvents DnD As Class1
Dim cls As New Class1

Private Sub DnD_DAD(OldRange As Range, NewRange As Range, Worksheet As Worksheet)
    
    Debug.Print "hello, summit should have occurred"
    
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_Open()

    Set cls = New Class1
    
End Sub

The problem is that Private Sub DnD_DAD never fires. When opening the workbook, the class is initialised as 'Class Init' is displayed in the immediate window, so I know at least this part is working. Does anyone know why Private Sub DnD_DAD is not triggered when cells are moved?
I've set a breakpoint in Sub app_SheetChange and have stepped through to the RaiseEvent, so I also know that this actually being called too.
 

Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
This:

Code:
Set cls = New Class1

should be:

Code:
Set DnD = New Class1
