Hello. I'm brand new to the forum and have been "lurking" for a solution to my problem for a while. This subject has been discussed to a certain degree on other threads and I'm sorry if I'm reopening old wounds.
I have a worksheet that my company uses as a form. On that form, there are password protected cells that can be unlocked only by select users so that they may provide an electronic signature. Cell AF2 contains =now().

I'd like to have the "form" enter the date the electronic signature cell is modified in the adjacent cell to that persons signature.

Specifically, when cell K18 is modified by adding a signature, I'd like the date stamp to automatically appear in M18.
Subsequently, when K29 is modified, the date stamp in M29; when I37 is modified, the date stamp in T37; and finally, when I40 is modified, the date stamp in T40.

I have read that if I copy and past the =now(), it will "lock" on the date/time... but I'd like this to happen automatically when the modification is made.

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
This should do what you want. Format the cells with you date stamps as desired.

right click on the tab and select view code
paste the code below
the file must be saved as a macro enabled file type such as xlsm

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("K18")) Is Nothing Then
    Range("M18") = Now()
End If
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("K29")) Is Nothing Then
    Range("M29") = Now()
End If
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("I37")) Is Nothing Then
    Range("T37") = Now()
End If
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("I40")) Is Nothing Then
    Range("T40") = Now()
End If
End Sub
