Default date/time stamp

I know I probably did post my reply correctly to get a possible solution to
my problem. Any further help would be greatly appreciated.


Sorry, but I failed to mention the process correctly. If end user enters
data in any cell in column A beginning at cell a2, then I would like the
corresponding cell(same row) in column B to have a date/time stamp that would
not change when the date/time changes or when the file is saved and reopened.
Example: if user enters data in cell A2, then B2 would automatically display
date/time stamp. If user enters data in cell A3, then B3 would have a
date/time stamp...and so on..and so on. TIA.

-----------------------------------------------

Enter this code in the module of the concerned sheet.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then
Range("B1") = Now()
End If
End Sub

Will change the date only when you change or enter value in A1

I'm using Excel 2003.

Is this possible?

If end user enters data in A1, can I add a date/time function that will
automatically be entered in cell B1, but not update when the date/time
changes or when the file is closed/opened? Using Today() or Now(), the
date/time in B1 updates when file is closed and then opened.

TIA
