Why doesn't my table update consistently?

Hi,

I'm working on a workbook that has an index sheet on it the displays certain data elements based on data on the other worksheets. The issue I am running in to is that my table doesn't always update with all of the data consistently. It is like my For loop is ending early and I can't for the life of me figure out why. What should be happening is that when cell B1 on the index is selected, the string in A2 is collected and then it pulls the data from the sheet that matches the string in A2. Then the location of the name on the index sheet and location of the name on the reference sheet are identified and it pulls the data from the reference sheets and places it in the appropriate column on the index sheet. All of the data pulls correctly, it just doesn't always pull in the first time and I have to change the selection in A2 multiple times to get it all to populate. I'm using Excel 2016. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
Just a quick guess, based on this bit of code:

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)    
    '....
    ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 2).Select

End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

    If ActiveCell.Address = "$B$1" Then
        '...

It looks like you're relying on the Worksheet_Change code to trigger the SelectionChange code? But as the name implies, SelectionChange will only trigger if the selection changes. If the ActiveCell is already B1, the code won't trigger.

If this is the problem, then perhaps move the SelectionChange code into a new Sub, and:

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)    
    '....
    Call SomeSub

End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

    If ActiveCell.Address = "$B$1" Then Call SomeSub

Thanks Stephen. I don't think that is the issue. The user needs to change their selection in A2 for everything to update and if they do that then it calls the B1 cell selection to make sure the selection changes. I added a msg box after I set the value of d to make sure it was checking all of the names in the list. After I did that, it magically works now. I removed it and it still works. We'll see what happens later :) Thanks again for the help.

I found the culprit in case anyone else runs into the issue and happens across this post. I have an auto-filter script on the sheet that the data is pulling from. If the list is filtered then it will only return data up to the filtered name and then jump out of the FOR loop. I added a remove filter (if activesheet.autofiltermode then cells.autofilter) macro on sheet deactivate so that it unfilters the data when you leave the sheet. That fixed the issue.
