Celltextchange is one

Also look at the activecell property as it's an editfield

The only thing I've ever run into is that a person edits data and  
does NOT press return or leave the last cell they edit so you never  
get an event
You may need a "done timer" that you can trigger or some other meanss  
to deal with this situation.
