Hello programmers better than me,
Let's say I want to create a VBA program (or sub) to:
(1) save a file to a directory each time the contents (any cell in a list) is changed
(2) generate a time stamp or some relative way to create multiple files when the file is saved
(3) allow the original file to stay put and incorporate the new/amended data
E.g. Book1.xls is a shared workbook, user A accesses the file and enters some data and your clever VBA saves a version off (Book1TimeStamp.xls) in addition to saving the entered data to the original version (Book1.xls). Then, user B accesses file and screws things up and saves data to original version (Book1.xls) - I would like to be able to go back to Book1TimeStamp and retrieve the data from user A. Make sense?
Hard or easy to keep version history like this???
Many advanced thanks and gold stars to those future responders.
