I am trying to figure out a way to let users "sign" an spreadsheet for
approval. We could accept them typing there initials in a cell, but we need
to authenticate that it was that person.  Is there any way to do this?  
Thanks!

Get the login id and put it in yourself, they get no option

   Range("A1").Value = Environ("UserName")
   Range("B1").Value = Form at(Now, "dd mmm yyyy hh:mm:ss")

Hi Jasmine,

What event would trigger the signing, a change in (a certain) cell(s),
closing the workbook, or what?

That works perfectly.  I put a button on the page and assigned it to that.  
Thank you so much for your help!!!

Hi Jasmine,

I was suggesting an automatic way of signing, not needing your user to do
anything.

I am trying to make my excel sheet automatically give off the date and time
when some data is inputted into the cells next to it.  I managed to do this
with this code but wanted to add the security that the person signing off is
actually authentic.  I tried to insert your code into my previous code and it
kept giving me "Method "Value" of Object "Range" failed".  Do you have any
suggestions?

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error GoTo EndItAll
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target.Cells.Column = 5 Or Target.Cells.Column = 8 Or
Target.Cells.Column = 11 Then
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="justme"
    For Each cell In Target
    If cell.Value <> "" Then
    With cell.Offset(0, 1)
         .Value = Now
         .Locked = True
    End With
    End If
Next
End If
EndItAll:
Application.EnableEvents = True
'ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="justme"
Range("e2").Value = Environ("UserName")
End Sub
