    Excel Help, Monitor a spreadsheet??

    Hello All,

    I would be extremely grateful if you could help me solve a problem i am currently having.

    I have a spreadsheet on a server network for 100+ people to see. I need to know who has visited the worksheet? is there any way i can do this?

    I understand there is a way i can create a hit counter but to this i am not sure how either.

    Thank you for your time and help, hopefully we can crack this problem.

    Kind regards

    Kevin Maguire

    I use this in a workbook I like to track who's accessing:

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.

    It writes the date, time and user ID of anyone that opens the file to a file called Log.txt in the same directory. They need to have enabled macros for it to work but this would be the case with any other solution I think.

    The code needs to go on the ThisWorkbook code page of your workbook's vba project.

    Use code tags when posting your VBA code: [code] Your code here [/code]
