Guys. What am I doing wrong, please?

I need a VBA message box to pop up if and when a specific cell has specific text in it as follows:
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()If Worksheets("Home Quote").Range("D33").Value = "Selection Error" Then
    MsgBox "Please make another selection"
End If
End Sub

Cell D33 formula is:
=IF(ISERROR(SUM(E15:E32)),"Selection Error",(SUM(E15:E32)))

When I am in the VBA editor and run the code, it works, but when I close the editor and change values so that the cell says "Selection Error" nothing happens...

Fastest way to copy a worksheet?
Hold down the Ctrl key while dragging tab for Sheet1 to the right. Excel will make a copy of the worksheet.
