VBA to execute macro on multiple ranges

[MarkB1]

Hello,

I am attempting to execute a macro when any cell within a given two ranges are selected. The private sub works fine when I'm just doing it for A2:A100, but attempting to add range C2:C100 breaks it. How do I properly capture multiple ranges here? Do I use an "Or" statement or some other approach?

Thank you

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Const WS_RANGE As String = "A2:A100" Or "C2:C100"   
    On Error GoTo ws_exit
    Application.EnableEvents = False
    If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
        With Target
            Call 'My Macro Here
        End With
    End If
ws_exit:
    Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

try using these 2 lines for your ws_range declaration

Dim ws_range As Range
Set ws_range = Union(Range("A2:A100"), Range("C2:C100"))

SO full code like this

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
    Dim WS_RANGE As Range
    Set WS_RANGE = Union(Range("A2:A100"), Range("C2:C100"))
    On Error GoTo ws_exit
    Application.EnableEvents = False
    If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
        With Target
            Call 'My Macro Here
        End With
    End If
ws_exit:
    Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Hello,

Thanks for the help, but when I use this code, the macro is not activating for any cell range (whereas it was activating for the one single range previously). While not efficient I'm sure, I did see that the following worked:

Const WS_RANGE As String = "A2:A100,C2:C100"

Thanks!

Does this work?

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
    Dim WS_RANGE As Range
    Set WS_RANGE = Union(Range("A2:A100"), Range("C2:C100"))
    On Error GoTo ws_exit
    Application.EnableEvents = False
    If Not Intersect(Target, WS_RANGE) Is Nothing Then
        With Target
            Call 'My Macro Here
        End With
    End If
ws_exit:
    Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

That's perfect! Thanks for the help!!
