I'm trying to troubleshoot this bit of sample code so that I can apply
the solution to my larger project.

On a worksheet I have a WorksheetChange event and a Selection_Change
event. What I am trying to do is capture the value of the new target
cell after the Selection_Change event.

This code works fine:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

If Not Intersect(Target, Range("a1:z1")) Is Nothing Then
    ActiveCell.Select
End If

End Sub


Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

On Error Resume Next

If Intersect(Target, Range("a1:z1")) Is Nothing Then
    Exit Sub
Else: OldValue = Target.Cells.Value
      Set OldRange = Target
End If

End Sub


However, if I change "ActiveCell.Select" to "ActiveCell.Offset
(0,1).Select" to skip over a cell, it doesn't work.

But here's the thing that REALLY puzzles me:
    If I step through the code in the debugging window, it seems to
work fine- that is, the cell skips to the proper cell and the OldValue
is set to the value of that destination cell (the new Target).
   But, then, if I type "Print OldValue" in the Immediate pane, it
returns the value in the cell immediately to the right of the initial
cell, and if I call the variable elsewhere it has that same incorrect
value!

Can someone please enlighten me? Where is this code short circuiting?

Thanks as always,
Doug
