Hi guys, I hope everything is going well with you.

Look, I need your help please.


I need to create Save event. So, once the active sheet is saved, the code acts as follows:

  1. Type the date and time (NOW function, I believe) in the active row, second cell (Column B).
  2. Type the username (Environ username, I guess) in the active row, seventh cell (Column G).
  3. The last thing to auto-close the sheet once these commands are completed and the sheet is saved, however, and that’s the challenging thing that I’m not really sure if it’s doable, I want the sheet once it’s re-opened again, I need the rows those contains data, to be, editable yes, but not removable, like a footprint.

Could someone help with the code writing? I’m familiar with the needed functions for the first two points, yet, I’m not that good to write the code, and for point# 3, I don’t know at all how to do it or what to use.

Thank you guys.

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Editable implies removable.
You could track changes on a hidden and protected sheet so you can track changed content, who made and when a change occurred.
Do you mean auto-close the workbook?
