Hi , does anybody know how to track a change of a linked cell value ?
The event change recognizes manual changes, but not linked changes.
This would be great.

Thanks , Rafael
 
Rafael,

You need a second cell to store a value to compare it to. So, for example,
if cell A1 has a link to another cell, and cell A2 is available to store the
comparative value, then this event code will work:

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
If Range("A1").Value <> Range("A2").Value Then
MsgBox "Cell A1 has changed"
Application.EnableEvents = False
Range("A2").Value = Range("A1").Value
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub
