Hi Bill,
Is what you are trying to do really going to overcome the problem of each Now being updated or overwritten?. When you use VBA to place Now in a cell it doesn't put the Now function into that cell it just puts in the current Now value, ie a static date and time value. Each time your code runs it will update the cell with the new Now value and you lose the old one. If you don't want to lose any old Now values you will need to use the Offset method to shift all the older Now values across one column or down one row. For example: when the following code is run it puts the current Now value into B1 then shifts all previous Now values down one row by way of the Offset method copying each value into the cell immediately below. When the loop reaches B1 that too is copied into B2. Public Sub SaveOldNows() Range("B1").Value = Now For iRowOffset = Application.Count(Range("B:B")) To 1 Step -1 'Shift old time values down 1 row Let Cells(iRowOffset + 1, 2).Value = Cells(iRowOffset, 2).Value Next iRowOffset End Sub Also, what is the effect of the "\"'s in your code. I've never seen anything like it before? <if range(\"f6:f45\") = \"1\" then Also, in the first line of your code are you intending to detect if the sheet change has occurred anywhere in the range F6:F45? If that is the case then the way I have seen it done is... If Intersect(Target,Range("F6:F45")) Is Nothing then Exit Sub End If Hope this helps you. Ken Johnson |
