Well i don't know what exactly you want to do, but i don't see you ever start
your timer. With the nature of what you are doing, i would probably create a
hidden sheet with timestamps, on workbookopen put the time in and user name,
then add time out when they exit, then calculate off of that.

To start, you have a workbook open event that dimensions a timer, and then
you go straight to the before close event. Looks like you are missing a lot
of code in your example.
