How do I get Excel to notify me ( by e-mail) when changes are made

[Bart]

I would like to be notifyed when changes are made to a worksheet. I have a
spreadheet on a server that gets updated daily by several people and I would
like to know when all of them have updated their data so I don't have to call
all of them and ask them to do it.

Hi Bart,

You can use an Event macro, the following requires each of three people
to fill in cell in their respective positions within B2:B4

Install by right click on the worksheet, View code, insert the following:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim str As String
If Not Intersect(Range(Target(1).Address), Range("B2:B4")) Is Nothing Then
On Error Resume Next
If Range("B2:B4").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "spy mission completed"
str = "mailto:[email protected]?subject=spy mission completed&body=" _
& "%0D%0A" & "We're finished, now it's your turn." _
& "%0D%0A " & Application.ActiveWorkbook.FullName
ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink (str)
' Application.SendKeys "%s" '--Spell check would stop you anyway
End If
On Error GoTo 0
End If
End Sub
