Please I am new to VBA. this code runs the first procedure when I type a number from 1 to 100 but it stops when it is more than 100. Due to that, I had wanted to add an elseif to make the wordart red but it doesn't. Please and also if I add a formula the code does not run.
For correction how can this code work with a formula when the number is between 1 to 100 but will turn red when it is more than 100
VBA Code:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
 If Target.Address = "$A$4" Then
  If IsNumeric(Target.Value) Then

    With Shapes("Rectangle 4").TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Fill
     .TwoColorGradient msoGradientHorizontal, 1
     .GradientAngle = 270
     .GradientStops(1).Color = RGB(0, 0, 0)
     .GradientStops(1).Position = Target.Value
     .GradientStops(2).Color = RGB(255, 255, 255)
     .GradientStops(2).Position = Target.Value
   
   End With
     End If
ElseIf Target.Address > "100%" Then

    With Shapes("Rectangle 4").TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Fill
        .Visible = msoTrue
        .ForeColor.RGB = RGB(0, 0, 0)
        .BackColor.RGB = RGB(255, 255, 255)
        .TwoColorGradient msoGradientHorizontal, 2
    End With

 
 'End If 'isnumric


   
 End If
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
Target.Address returns the cell address, not its value.

Your code will not work with a formula since a formula recalculation doesn't trigger the Change event - unless you are altering cells on the same worksheet to affect the formula, in which case you need to monitor those cells, not the formula cell.

If you are changing the value in A4, that part (the ElseIf) will never be tested since the first part of your If (ie the check to see if Target.Address = "$A$4") will always be true.

Are you entering 100, or 100%, in the cell? They are completely different values.

100% please

Then you'd need something like:

VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

   On Error Resume Next
   
   If Target.Address = "$A$4" Then
   
      If IsNumeric(Target.Value) Then
      
         If Target.Value2 <= 1 Then
         
            With Shapes("Rectangle 4").TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Fill
            
               .TwoColorGradient msoGradientHorizontal, 1
               .GradientAngle = 270
               .GradientStops(1).Color = RGB(0, 0, 0)
               .GradientStops(1).Position = Target.Value
               .GradientStops(2).Color = RGB(255, 255, 255)
               .GradientStops(2).Position = Target.Value
            
            End With
         
         Else
         
            With Shapes("Rectangle 4").TextFrame2.TextRange.Font.Fill
            
               .Visible = msoTrue
               .ForeColor.RGB = RGB(0, 0, 0)
               .BackColor.RGB = RGB(255, 255, 255)
               .TwoColorGradient msoGradientHorizontal, 2
            
            End With
         
         End If ' target.value2 <= 1
      
      End If 'isnumeric
   
   End If

End Sub

   End If

End Sub
Please thank Rory. It worked but a problem with numbers above hundred. They were appearing black with a gradient of white so I had to tweak it to a gradient of red and white. Once again thank you very much Rory
