I'm using Case Statement in my VBA, but it works inconsistently.
As I'm working on the spreadsheet, updating data etc, the cells will sometimes update as expected, and sometimes will remain blank. How can I fix this?
See example of the code below. Thanks....

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)


Select Case Range("AL45").Value

Yes, it's running continually and that is definitely the problem.
I guess I'll have to go back to using formulas.

Thanks for your help.

Excel Facts

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
See if this helps as it captures the calculation method, stores it and sets the workbook calculation method to manual before the code is run. It then resets it to what it was after the code is finished so it may break the loop (besides that I'm out of ideas I'm afraid :():

Code: 
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()

    Dim lngMyCol As Long
    Dim lngMyRow As Long
    Dim xlnCalcMethod As XlCalculation
    
    With Application
        .ScreenUpdating = False
        .EnableEvents = False
        xlnCalcMethod = .Calculation
        .Calculation = xlCalculationManual
    End With
    
    Select Case Val(Range("AL45"))
        Case 1 To 50
            lngMyCol = 29 + Val(Range("AL45")) 'Col AD (the first column to be populated) is the 30th column
            Cells(12, lngMyCol).Value = Range("AG45").Value
            Cells(13, lngMyCol).Value = Range("AJ45").Value
            lngMyRow = 120 + Val(Range("AL45")) 'Row number for Col. AC
            Cells(14, lngMyCol).Value = Cells(lngMyRow, "AC")
            Cells(15, lngMyCol).Value = Cells(4, lngMyCol)
    End Select
    
    With Application
        .EnableEvents = True
        .Calculation = xlnCalcMethod
        .ScreenUpdating = True
    End With

End Sub
