Date of Last Modified for a Cell

Skydado 

The code discussed earlier in this topic has a line

        rng.Offset(0, 9).Value = Now

Insert a new line below that:

        rng.Offset(0, 10).Value = Environ("Username")

HansVogelaar I promise, last question:

In a shared excel file, is there a way to put the name of the "updater" in the column next to the date+time update column?

SUPER HansVogelaar  !!!!

Thank you very much!!

1) In the Visual Basic Editor, select Tools > VBAProject Prpoerties...

Activate the Protection tab.

Tick the check box 'Lock project for viewing'.

Enter a password, and enter it again in the 'Confirm password' box. You will need this if you want to view/edit the code later on, so do not forget it!

Switch back to Excel and save the workbook. The next time someone opens the workbook, they won't be able to view the code unless they enter the correct password.

2) Change

    Me.Protect Password:="secret"

to

    Me.Protect Password:="secret", AllowSorting:=True

 See Worksheet.Protect method for more options.

P.S. If you want to be able to edit cells without triggering the code:

• Activate the Visual Basic Editor.
• Activate the Immediate window (Ctrl+G).
• Type or copy/paste the following line, then press Enter:

Application.EnableEvents = False

• Switch back to Excel.
• When you're done, don't forget to execute

Application.EnableEvents = True

HansVogelaar Thanks done.

Behaviour is a little bit weird ...

(when unprotected for maintenance, it goes protected if I do something in the "monitored" range.

... but I can live with it.

But I still have 2 issues:

1. anyone can "View Code" and see the password.
2. the re-protection put standard protection rules but I want to allow, for example, sorting even when protected

Is there a way to protect code view/changes?

Unprotect the sheet at the beginning of the code and protect it again at the end:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    Me.Unprotect Password:="secret"
    ' your code
    ' ...
    Me.Protect Password:="secret"
End Sub

If you protected the worksheet with a password, change secret to your password.

Otherwise, remove both instances of Password:="secret"

HansVogelaar Ah Apologies, I didn't realize there was more than the first page of replies while looking at the forum on my phone. 

I will use this information and hopefully learn from it. I have never used VBA code before and didn't know it existed. 

Thank you.
