Default Function to capture the time a cell changes


Hi all... I am trying to build a function that freezes the time when
another cell changes its value. I don't want to use a Worksheet
Calculate or a Selection Change because i have several cells to monitor
and all the cells have the same priority. I am frankly a little stuck.

Anyone has any suggestion or maybe used something similar in the past?

Many thanks

BC

What causes the cell to change value?

Why not use the Change event ?

Do you need the time down to the absolute second ? I would think tha
several changes would rattle through the event in less than that.

Worksheet change can monitor many cells.

Thanks Rich - I was a little put off by the fact that i have to do it
for some forty cells and maybe a function was more efficient. but yes a
worksheet change would do

cheers

Well, you would be using a subroutine, and the worksheet change even
passes you the address of the cell that has changed.....

the cells are linked to other cells. their status is empty, unless they
change. when they do they trigger a worksheet calculate and go
immediately back to empty. problem is, i have some 50 of them and when
a work sheet calculate is triggered at times i dont know which cell
does trigger it.

problem is, i have tried a selection change code for all the 50 cells
but this make the machine very slow and clashes with other macros.

ideally i think i would need to create a function (add-in). hmmm
