In many instances, a macro should run only when a certain number of cells have values entered into them (referred to as the 'key cells' in this document). In order to prevent a large macro from running every time a value is entered into a cell of a sheet, you must check to see if theActiveCell is one of the key cells. To accomplish this, use the Intersect method on the ActiveCell and the range containing the key cells to verify the ActiveCell is one of the key cells. If the ActiveCell is in the range containing the key cells, you can call the macro.
