Hello All,

I use this code to check if a value changes in a specific column and update
the adjacent cell (one to the right) with today's date.
However, it makes Excel 2007 crash.

Any advice?

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If ((ActiveCell.Column = 6) And (ActiveCell.Row 5)) Then
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value = Str(Date)
End If
End Sub

Thanks!

Hi Mathieu,

I can't see anything wrong with that either, but I would suggest using
the 'Target' range rather than Activecell to test what has changed.
They should both always be the same, but there is a chance that they
won't be... for example if another macro changes a value in column F,
you would presumably still want to catch it but the active cell could
be anything. I'd suggest:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target.Cells(1), _
Range("F6:F65536")) Is Nothing Then
Target.Cells(1).Offset(0, 1).Value = Str(Date)
End If
End Sub

Cheers,
Ivan.
