How Do I Re Name A Macro???

[rockyw]

I want to use this code several times on the same sheet with different cells. I get an error saying Ambiguous name detected. I need to rename each differently? How would I change the name without stopping the code? Thanks

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Set MyRange = Range("A2")  'edit to suit range of cells
If Not Intersect(Target, MyRange) Is Nothing Then
If Target < 0 Then
Target.Offset(0, 5) = Date
Else
Target.Offset(0, 5).ClearContents
End If
End If
End Sub

Reading tells me maybe I cannot use 2 of these on one sheet? That's bad. Can I add to it and look at multiple cells? Also look at A3, A4, A5 ect wit the same code? Thanks

Sure, just adjust Set MyRange = Range("A2") to e.g. Set MyRange = Range("A2:A5")

Hi Rocky

You can only use an event once so you would need to adapt the code to run on several sets of cells, you can set the variable many times including one after the other or in a loop, that's why it's a variable

What do you need the current code to do, perhaps we can point you in the right direction :D

Regards

Yes that works great. Now can I add a different column? (A1:A5) and (H1:H5) I'm not finding how to hook these together? Thanks

To expand, I need to run the code on B4:B27 and J4:J27 and R4:R27. These are all on the same sheet? Can this be done. Thanks for the help.

Like so :D

Set MyRange = Range("A1:A5, H1:H5")  'edit to suit range of cells

Just add more ranges or cells to suit

 

[MarcelBeug]

Assuming it's all the same code to be executed, you can use Union, like

Set MyRange = Union(Range("B4:B27"), Range("J4:J27"), Range("R4:R27"))

This worked great for me, thanks for the help.

You're welcome.
