Hello, I have a worksheet that track changes and logs into a sheet when cell changes. It logs the Sheet Name where the change happen.

However, I have multiple data that needs to change in a single sheet. The problem is that it only logs the sheet name and not the column where I change the cell.

With this, I want to track changes in a certain column and returns a "text" where the changes happens instead of the sheet name. Below is the code that I got from searching google:

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)If ActiveSheet.Name <> "LOGS" Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
 Dim OldValue As String, NewValue As String
        NewValue = Target.Value


        Application.Undo
        
        OldValue = Target.Value


        Target.Value = NewValue
    


Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Value = ActiveSheet.Name
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 1).Value = OldValue
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 2).Value = NewValue
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 3).Value = Date
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 4).Value = Time
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 5).Value = Date
Application.EnableEvents = True


End If
End Sub

Here is the link for the sample file for you to check => https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pxi9Ulr9Gb-5vrKgv8oYjOIRzKE0qhfW/view?usp=sharing


Thank you to all.
 

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
Perhaps this:-
Code:
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Value = Target.Column

Hi MickG, thank you for the reply but it will not work on my excel file. However, I come up with this one:

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)If ActiveSheet.Name <> "LOGS" Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
 Dim OldValue As String, NewValue As String
        NewValue = Target.Value


        Application.Undo
        
        OldValue = Target.Value


        Target.Value = NewValue
    

If Target.Column = 3 Then
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Value = "The name that I want to output"
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 1).Value = OldValue
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 2).Value = NewValue
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 3).Value = Date
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 4).Value = Time
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 5).Value = Date
End If

If Target.Column = 6 Then
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Value = "The name that I want to output"
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 1).Value = OldValue
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 2).Value = NewValue
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 3).Value = Date
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 4).Value = Time
Sheets("LOGS").Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(0, 5).Value = Date
End If


Application.EnableEvents = True


End If
End Sub

And so on. :)
