I have a timestamp I've previously talked to people about. It's a worksheet_change item and I either need to make it into a macro that runs automatically (so when I input data into "R5" it puts a permanent, non-changing/updating timestamp "dd-mmm-yy" in "F4"

The fun part about this- it needs to add to sheets when the sheets are made- so I have a macro that creates a new sheet and formats the whole thing (talk about a long set of codes...). It also inserts all of the formulas into their respective cells. Now I need this timestamp to go in automatically when a new sheet is made and it can't just be a simple Now() as that would update each time the workbook is reopened.

Thanks!

Before amendment, if the line "If Not Intersect(Target, Range("R8,W25")) Is Nothing Then" does not get triggered, thenEnableEvents does not get set back to True.

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
So the never ending fun.
Nearly finished with this project- this started producing errors again. It doesn’t want to .numberformat and says it can’t. Any ideas what might cause this?

I got it working. I had mistakenly locked the sheet using vba and forgotten to put UserInterfaceOnly:=True problem solved.

However- I do have a new, open thread on a topic along the same lines. The worksheet_change is always looping, correct?
