i wasnt sure how to explain this the header

I have a simple peice of code that clears a few cells. I went back and added another row and therefore updated the code. Now when click the button all my other cells clear as supposed to but my new one doesnt.. but if i run the moduile within the VBA window it works as expected.

The cell that isnt working is D4. i also tried running it with D2:D6 but that didnt work either. I cant figure it out

Private Sub ClearMDL_Click()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

Range("H14:H82").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("D2:D4").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("D5:D6").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("D8:D11").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("D22:D36").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("B40").Select
Selection.ClearContents


Sheets("MDL").Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Do you have some other events which 'do stuff' to D4?

Try stepping through the code using the F8 key - make sure program execution is going through the code and not disappearing off somewhere else. If it is, turn off event handling whilst you're clearing the cells (see below):-

By the way, this is neater:-
Code:
Application.EnableEvents = False
Range("H14:H82").ClearContents
Range("D2:D4").ClearContents
Range("D5:D6").ClearContents
Range("D8:D11").ClearContents
Range("D22:D36").ClearContents
Range("B40").ClearContents
Application.EnableEvents = True
