I'm currently using this macro to create a timestamp in excel:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
With Target
If .Count 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Range("J:K"), .Cells) Is Nothing Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
If IsEmpty(.Value) Then
.Offset(0, 1).ClearContents
Else
With .Offset(0, 1)
.NumberFormat = "dd mmm yyyy hh:mm:ss"
.Value = Now
End With
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End With
End Sub

problem is the date keeps on popping up to the right of the edited cell.
I would like to be able to monitor two columns ie, J:K, and the timestamp to
show up in the same row but in column L. Is there a way to do it? I'm
really preetty new at VBA and any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
