How to record a sheet change showing row column sheet name and date?

[Simon Lloyd]

Hi all,

Can anyone help with this one? I want to be able to record when a cel
is changed on a sheet and the record to be entered in a workbook tha
is unopened (and doesnt need to be) in the format of showing Row
Column? sheet name and date it occurred, this is so administration ca
keep track of changes to rectify mistakes and make sure changes occu
in due course. I already have some code in the worksheet selectio
change event to bring up a user form and for other events to happen a
below. Also below is the code from the This Workbook module.

Hope you can help!

On Error Resume Next


With arySheets

Set myrange = Range("E3:H641")
If Not Intersect(myrange, Target) Is Nothing Then

ActiveWindow.ScrollWorkbookTabs Position:=xlLast
arySheets = Array("Corn Process", "Alpha Process", "Bulk
H&I", _
"Alpha Packing", "33 Bldg Packing", "Ctd Cor
Packing", _
"2 & 3 Coating", "Crispix", "Feed&Lab"

Sheets(arySheets).Select

For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
sh.Unprotect
Next
End If

If ActiveCell.Column >= 5 And ActiveCell.Column <= 8 An
ActiveCell.Row >= 3 And ActiveCell.Row <= 641 Then
UserForm1.Show

Detecting a change is the Worksheet_Change event, or workbook
Workbook_SheetChange event. You can test for a range of cells in this

Open a workbook is simply

If oWBAudit Is Nothing Then
Set oWBAudit = Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:\Audit\Tracking.xls"
End IF


writing the change is simply a matter of addig something like

with oWBAudit.Worksheets(1).Cells(Rows.Count,"A").End(xlUp)
.Offset(1,0).Value = Tarfget.Value
.Offset(1,1).Value = Format(Date,"dd mmm yyyy")
.Offset(1,2).Value = Application.UserName
End With
