I'm not a expert in excel and I need help for a simple question.

I need start a macro when range("A1") is change.

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
Hello,

If you are changing the cell manually try

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then
    'your code here
End If
End Sub

this code needs to go into the relevant sheet code window.

cell A1 is "=b3+b4" and I change b3, the cell A1 is change but the macro is not executed.
