Hello I copied the following macro and I entred the macro n the worksheet
module this is what I'm looking for. If one of the following cells is not
blank B59, B 60 B 61 B 63 but has a name that has been selected from a drop
down box then in column c I want a static current date and time Macro
does not work thanks for your help
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
With Target
If .Count 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Range("B59:B63"), .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

When you say that the macro doesn't work, what do you mean? What is happening
when you run it?

Thanks Lynn
Example
If I select a name from the drop down box in B59
C59 remains blank instead of giving me the date and time

It works OK for me. Did you put the code in the right place?

Select the sheet where you want this to happen
Right click the sheet tab and select View Code
Put the code in the window that opens

Are you using xl97 and data|Validation?

Debra Dalgleish shares this:

(The easiest fix may be typing the names into the data|validation dialog.)
