Hi -

I'm a little new to VBA but have managed to put together a macro that half 
achieves its intended purpose.  

Depending on what is chosen in a data validation cell (any cell in range S8 
to AL8), the macro is supposed to change the format of 296 cells below the 
data validation cell:

   - If "Amount" is chosen in the data validation cell, the format in cells 
   below should change to "Comma" style (i.e., 0.00).  This works.  
   - If "Percent" is chosen in the data validation cell, the format in 
   cells below should change to "0.000000%".  This doesn't work.  I'm stumped 
   since the language looks right to me and no debugging error pops up.  Any 
   ideas?
   
The macro I have now is copied below.  Any help you could provide would be 
greatly appreciated.  

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

Dim SAType As Range
Set SAType = Range("S8:AL8")

If Not Application.Intersect(Target, SAType) Is Nothing Then
On Error Resume Next
    Select Case SAType
            Case "Amount"
                Target.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1:A296").Style = "Comma"
            Case "Percent"
                Target.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1:A296").NumberFormat = 
"0.000000%"
    End Select
End If
End Sub
