Hi,

I had a code which auto update time & date on Col E
and last modified userid on col F.

Possible to rec which is the last modified cell?

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]A[/TD]
[TD]B[/TD]
[TD]C[/TD]
[TD]D[/TD]
[TD]E[/TD]
[TD]F[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]abc[/TD]
[TD]def[/TD]
[TD]ghi[/TD]
[TD]jkl[/TD]
[TD]8/9/2019 5:03:51 PM[/TD]
[TD]C:\Users\TOM , update Cell A, B, C,D[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
' Code to put the date of the latest update following a change in the corresponding cell in column F
    Dim WorkRng As Range, roww As Long
    Dim rng As Range
    Set WorkRng = Intersect(Range("A:D"), Target)
    If Not WorkRng Is Nothing Then
        Application.EnableEvents = False
            For Each rng In WorkRng
                roww = rng.Row
                If Not rng.Value = "" Then
                    Cells(roww, "E").Value = Now
                    Cells(roww, "E").NumberFormat = "dd-mm-yyyy, hh:mm:ss"
                    Cells(roww, "F").Value = Environ$("Userprofile")
                Else
                    Cells(roww, "E").ClearContents
                    Cells(roww, "F").ClearContents
                End If
            Next
        Application.EnableEvents = True
    End If
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Perhaps by changing this line
Code:
Cells(roww, "F").Value = Environ$("Userprofile") [COLOR="#FF0000"]&", update Cell" & Target.Address(0, 0)[/COLOR]

Another option
Code:
                If Not Rng.Value = "" Then
                    Cells(roww, "E").Value = Now
                    Cells(roww, "E").NumberFormat = "dd-mm-yyyy, hh:mm:ss"
                    If Cells(roww, "F").Value = "" Then
                        Cells(roww, "F").Value = Environ$("Userprofile") & ", update Cell" & Rng.Address(0, 0)
                     Else
                        Cells(roww, "F").Value = Cells(roww, "F").Value & ", " & Rng.Address(0, 0)
                     End If
                Else
                    Cells(roww, "E").ClearContents
                    Cells(roww, "F").ClearContents
                End If
