' returns True if Range1 is within Range2
Dim InterSectRange As Range
Set InterSectRange = Application.Intersect(Range1, Range2)
InRange = Not InterSectRange Is Nothing
Set InterSectRange = Nothing
End Function
Sub TestInRange()
If InRange(ActiveCell, Range("A1:D100")) Then
' code to handle that the active cell is within the right range
MsgBox "Active Cell In Range!"

' code to handle that the active cell is not within the right range
