Right-click the sheet tab and "View Code". Copy/paste this code into the
blank sheet module.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
'when entering data in a cell in Col B
On Error GoTo enditall
If Target.Cells.Column = 2 Then
n = Target.Row
If Excel.Range("B" & n).Value <> "" Then
Excel.Range("C" & n).Value = Now()
End If
End If
enditall:
End Sub
