VBA exits sub as soon as Cell value has changed

[Totti]

Hi, i am trying to using a Sub to update the value of a cell & then proceed to do something else.

Here's an example of the code piece:

For k = 2 to 10

ActiveSheet.Cells(k,3).Value = 10

Next k

VBA seems to quit after it has changed the value for k = 2. Why is that?

Thanks for your help!

Hi Totti and Welcome to the Board,

I'm not seeing anything in that For...Next block that should cause VBA to exit the Sub.

Is there anything special about that range of cells, such as merged cells, locked cells on a protected sheet, data validation, conditional formatting, pivotTable occupying those cells?

Could you post the rest of your code?
Does the code stop with an error in the debugger or merely finish executing after changing Cell C2 without changing the cells in Range C3:C10?

Thanks Jerry!

No, nothing special about the cells. I will check again. I have save the workbook in the xlsm format. My code is just that. It changes Cell C2 & exits without changing rest of the cells!..very weird.

On a separate note, what happens if they are part of data validation?

I think i might have found the source of the problem. I had to enable iterative calculations in the excel options. That fixed it. Thanks for the primer.
