VBA call macro to split cells when cell changes

Time:04-04

Trying to make a macro that automatically calls another macro to extract parts of the entered string and insert into two other cells. The splitting macro works when called on a cell manually but cannot get it to trigger automatically.

Sub splitEnvServ()

Selection.TextToColumns destination:=ActiveCell.Offset(, 2), DataType:=xlDelimited, \_
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=False, \_
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=True, OtherChar \_
\:="/", FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 9), Array(2, 9), Array(3, 9), Array(4, 9), Array(5, \_
9), Array(6, 9), Array(7, 9), Array(8, 9), Array(9, 9), Array(10, 9), Array(11, 9), Array(12 \_
, 9), Array(13, 9), Array(14, 1), Array(15, 9), Array(16, 1), Array(17, 9), Array(18, 9)), \_

In your sub you missing the End if. Try:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Target.Worksheet.Range("B13")) Is Nothing Then
splitEnvServ
End If
End Sub
