timestamp

[Peri]

Is there a way to show the date and time a cell was changed in the cell next
to it, instead of using track changes and getting the changes listed in a
new sheet or highlited - i want them to be in the next cell.
for instance:
cell c95 was blank - when the user entered number 123722 in c95 i want D95
to show the date/time...
any suggestions?
Thanks!
Peri

With a formula
=if(c95="","",now())
and format to suit

 

[Peri]

Thank you for the response but now() will update every time changes are
made...i need it to stamp the time c95 was changed and not change the time
again...

Won't that always show the date and time, now? As in, when ever it's opened?

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target.Address = "$C$59" Then
With Target
.Offset(0, 1).Value = Format(Now, "dd mmm yyyy hh:mm")
End With
End If

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.
