Default Send Email on Update/Close

Hello,
Some coworkers and I use an excel file to record the projects that we
are working on.
The file is stored in a shared folder and each of us has change access
to it.

My boss asked that I come up with a way to notify everyone through
email when the file has been updated. I would like to use a VB (or
VBA, not sure which is the proper acronym) to look at the bottom most
filled cell (so if A32 was is blank/empty, it will look to A31 and so
on) and email everyone in an MSOutlook distribution list with the
contents of A-whatever as the subject line.

To avoid confusion, though, I would like the procedure to only run
when the file is updated.

Anyhelp would be very appreciated.

At the moment, I can prepare an email (it opens up on screen) but the
file that has the macro within is set as an attachment. I would like
to try and avoid this as too many copies of the file might be
confusing and take up valuable email space.

Thank you in advance for your help,
