Can anyone tell me why this code doesn't work?
I used this same code w/ numbers instead of letters and it worked. = Cells fill with appropriate color base on value entered.

Thanks,
Jim

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
     
    Dim Cell As Range
    Dim Rng1 As Range
     
    On Error Resume Next
    Set Rng1 = ActiveSheet.Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, 1)
    On Error GoTo 0
    If Rng1 Is Nothing Then
        Set Rng1 = Range(Target.Address)
    Else
        Set Rng1 = Union(Range(Target.Address), Rng1)
    End If
    For Each Cell In Rng1
        Select Case Cell.Value
        Case vbNullString
            Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
            Cell.Font.Bold = False
        Case 0
            Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 9
            Cell.Font.Bold = True
        Case MA
            Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 38
            Cell.Font.Bold = True
        Case IN
            Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 15
            Cell.Font.Bold = True
        Case AD
            Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 39
            Cell.Font.Bold = True
        Case SC
            Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 37
            Cell.Font.Bold = True
        Case OC
            Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 35
            Cell.Font.Bold = True
        Case PM
            Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 27
            Cell.Font.Bold = True
        Case Else
            Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
            Cell.Font.Bold = False
        End Select
    Next
     
End Sub

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
For a start I would suggest you lose the On Error Resume Next part of the code.

It could just be hiding errors.

Also I would suggest you enclose the text in quotes.
Code:
Case "MA"
Otherwise VBA will be regarding MA etc as variables.
