VBA to read cell contents, not formula

[MAGICofSeth]

Hello,

I am so close to having a working code. The problem is I need the VBA code to read the results of the value in the cell, not that there is a formula in the cell. Here is the code and I’ll explain a little better.

Ultimately, if there is an “H” returned by the formula in a cell A2:A40, (on the ‘Summary' sheet) then hide the row, if not, show the row, and when done checking A2:A40 update all the tables in the whole Workbook.

This should happen automatically when a different sheet (‘Case Type’) in the workbook is updated that the formulas in this sheet are looking at.

Here is the code on the ’Summary’ sheet in cells A2:A40:

Anyways- it all works fine when I manually type an “H” into one of the cells in between A2 and A40 on the ’Summary’ sheet, but when the formula returns an “H” it doesn’t work because the VBA only sees the formula, not the Value returned.

Would someone please help either correct the code I have or suggest a new one that accomplishes the underlined mission above?

All help is appreciated. Thank you!!

Hi, MAGICofSeth,

using Worksheet_Change will only get fired if the cell is either altered, entered or filled by query. If the cell is filled with a formula you would need to use the Worksheet_Calculate-event or monitor the cells which preceed the formulas (in your case the cells in Sheet Case Type).

Ciao,
Holger
