Trying to have two columns that will capture the original date and
updated date after making a change to a row. I used this formula as a
quick test and it populates the date but if any cell is changed on

the
spreadsheet the date is updated again - in cell A1 [
=IF(ISBLANK(B1),"blank",NOW()) ].

GOAL: on insert to the row - I'd like to populate both 'original

date'
and 'update date' and then when changes are made to that row - just
modify the 'update date' cell.

any help is appreciated.
