Macro to record user name and date/time
 

Is it possible to record a macro that when someone on the network opens my
workbook that it records the user's name, time and date on a hidden
protected worksheet?

Can this then be expanded further by if the user then changes something,
either adds, modify, or delete information from my workbook then the user's
name, date, time and changes (including worksheet name, cell co-ordinates
(i.e. A1) and information modified from and modified too) are recorded on a
hidden protected worksheet?

Thanx in advance.

Thanx Bob,

I have one small error coming up. When I open my Workbook (Sheet 3 is the
hidden sheet) an error comes up when the macro is run.

The error is:
Run-time error '9':
Subscript out of range

and when I click on the Debug button, the part of the code that is
highlighted is "With Worksheets(HIDDEN_SHEET)".

Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

I think Bob is gone for the day but what he meant was change the
Constant declaration i.e

Private iNextRow As Long
Const HIDDEN_SHEET As String = "Sheet3" '<<<Changed

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
With Worksheets(HIDDEN_SHEET)
.Range("A1").Value = Environ("UserName")
.Range("B1").Value = Format(Date + Time, _
"dd mmm yyyy hh:mm:ss")
End With
iNextRow = 2

End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, _
ByVal Target As Range)
On Error GoTo wb_exit
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Sh.Name < HIDDEN_SHEET Then
With Worksheets(HIDDEN_SHEET)
.Range("A" & iNextRow).Value = Environ("UserName")
.Range("B" & iNextRow).Value = Format(Date + Time, _
"dd mmm yyyy hh:mm:ss")
End With
End If

wb_exit:

Hope this helps

Macro to record user name and date/time
 

Thanx Rowan,

It worked :-)

I would like to expand it a little further. The username appears in column A
and the date/time in column B, which is great. I would like the cell
co-ordinates (i.e. D2) and the cell data (before being modified) that have
been modified in columns C and D respectively and the cell's modified data
in column E.

For example: If Sheet1 cell D2=1000, and someone modifies this cell so that
cell D2 now reads 500, I would like my hidden sheet to record:

Column A - Username
Column B - Date/Time
Column C - D2 (cell co-ordinates)
Column D - 1000 (original data - before being modified)
Column E - 500 (modified data - new data that had been entered)

What I am trying to do is keep a running report of a workbook being
modified, by whom, and what they have changed.

I hope this is possible to accomplish.

Thanx in advance.
