Hi All.

I have the VBA code below whereby when data is entered into a cell in column C for example, the date that the info is entered is automatically entered into the cell in column B.

I would like to replicate this for columns C:V. I have changed the code to C:V instead of C:C but it enters the date in every cell on the row before that column. For example if I enter data into N7, it is adding the date into M7, L7, K7, J7, I7 and so on rather than just M7.

Any advise would be appreciated.

Thanks
Gavin

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

Dim xRg As Range, xCell As Range
On Error Resume Next
If (Target.Count = 1) Then
If (Not Application.Intersect(Target, Me.Range("C:C")) Is Nothing) Then _
Target.Offset(0, -1) = Date
Application.EnableEvents = False
Set xRg = Application.Intersect(Target.Dependents, Me.Range("C:C"))
If (Not xRg Is Nothing) Then
For Each xCell In xRg
xCell.Offset(0, -1) = Date
Next
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If


End Sub

    Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub
