Hello, i have an issue i am looking to resolve, i have a userform that opens up with various options on Sheet3 , the problem is i have a checkbox on it that when selected will copy and paste information to a different sheet (Sheet4) on Sheet 4 in the code is a timestamp code , the code works fine if i am manually typing in the information , but it will not timestamp the target cell after the checkbox macro is finished , can someone help me figure out a code to put in either the check box code or sheet code to trigger an event that causes the target cell to trigger the update after clicking the check box , NOTE** after performing the copy paste function from the userform if i double click the target cell that was pasted to it will trigger the timestamp event**

code for userform is as follows-

VBA Code:
Private Sub CheckBox130_Click()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
Dim n As Long
Dim EmtC As Long
If txtRMBK.Value = "" Or txtRMBK.ListIndex = -1 Then
    MsgBox "Choose Room/Bunk"
    txtRMBK.SetFocus
    Exit Sub
  End If
   With Sheets("Daily POB") 'fit to the name of your sheet
    If txtRMBK.Value < 51 Then
      n = txtRMBK.Value + 2
      .Cells(n, "C").Copy
      
      Else
      n = txtRMBK.Value - 48
      .Cells(n, "M").Copy
    
    End If
  End With

With Sheets("Arrivals-Departures")
    EmtC = .Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
    .Range("C" & EmtC).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
End With

With Sheets("Daily POB") 'fit to the name of your sheet
    If txtRMBK.Value < 51 Then
      n = txtRMBK.Value + 2
      .Cells(n, "F").Copy
      
      Else
      n = txtRMBK.Value - 48
      .Cells(n, "P").Copy
    
    End If
  End With
With Sheets("Arrivals-Departures")
    EmtC = .Range("D" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
    .Range("D" & EmtC).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
End With
With Sheets("Daily POB") 'fit to the name of your sheet
    If txtRMBK.Value < 51 Then
      n = txtRMBK.Value + 2
      .Cells(n, "A").Copy
      
      Else
      n = txtRMBK.Value - 48
      .Cells(n, "L").Copy
    
    End If
  End With
With Sheets("Arrivals-Departures")
    EmtC = .Range("E" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
    .Range("E" & EmtC).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
End With

Sheets("Arrivals-Departures").Select


Application.CutCopyMode = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub



Code for Sheet4 Timestamp is as follows-


Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
    If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub    ' this stops code error if more than one cell is changed at once

    If Not Application.Intersect(Target, Range("C5:C49,L5:L49")) Is Nothing Then    ' indicates the Target range
       Target.Offset(, -2) = Format(Now, "m/d/yy hh:mm")
    End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
AFAIK, code that alters a sheet won't trigger events like Worksheet_Change event - especially if you disable events! Maybe your solution is to call that event from your click code if you can pass the range. I'm assuming that would be
Worksheet_Change (ActiveSheet.Cells(n, "C"))

Your change code didn't error for me when I did that (but I had to use a number, not n) in the call.

Holy crap man , your statement "especially if you disable events" was the key , i went back and found that i did not add code to enable events , and once i fixed that it works as i want it to , lmao im dumb , i appreciate your post it helped me solve my problem!!
