I have an Excel macro which is designed to create a new Excel tab ("Tracker") where changes made to any worksheet within the workbook are recorded, detailing "Cell Changed", "Old Value", "New Value", "Old Formula", "New Formula", "Time of Change", "Date of Change", and "User".
The macro currently will not detail the "Old Value" of the change where the target of the change are multiple cells, and instead shows as "Multiple Cells Selected" in the Tracker tab.
From what I can deduce, I need the declared variable "vOldValue" to equal a string created from the values from the selection, however I don't know how to achieve this.
Please see macro code below:
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
