    Code not running properly! Getting error message

    I am trying to make a multi value picklist so when a user selects more than one option from the drop down menu, the results show in one cell separated by commas. I found this code online and plugged it into VB on my spreadsheet and it's not working. I'm not a coding expert so I don't know what the solution is. See code below:

    Remove this line from your code -

    . This is line 1 and remove the End Sub at the end. You need to have only 1 End Sub.

    Now VB is not recognizing my macro since I took out the first line.

    Once you remove the top line, what you get is a worksheet event macro. Hence you need to select on your sheet containing the data, right click and select "View Code" and then copy the code in there. As soon as you change the dropdown values, the macro will start working as desired.
