Time stamp macro to capture changes from one workbook to another
 

Hi Guys,
I'm totally stumped...Is there a way to have one workbook open and
capture the time when another workbook is modified? Workbook A is for
entering names and times of employees registering for a class, Workbook
B is looking at the entries, and timestamping them, to capture who
signed up first for that particular class first. Please help!

Time stamp macro to capture changes from one workbook to another
 

This is not a complete answer...

Perhaps if Workbook A is somehow configured to activate a macro each
time a name is entered. Perhaps the operator's procedure for using the
sheet calls for activating a macro that first time stamps the result,
and then performs the same function as enter.

On the macro for Sheet A, you want it to do something line

set sheetB.range(cell ( ), ABC ).value = now()

set sheetB,Cell( ).value = Cell( ).value + 1

Where Cell( ) is the location storing the index.

And ABC is the column that will hold the dates.

YOu could also have it send across the name so you have both name and date.
