Default If cell is blank automatically enter today's date in the same cell

The code will run whenever the sheet is activated. If the workbook is
saved with that sheet the active sheet then the code will run when the
file opens. Not, though, tht it will also run if you switch back to
that sheet after working on another sheet, OR working in another
workbook and switching back to that sheet.

Once you put macros into a workbook, you'll need to change Excel's
Macro Security to use the macros whenever the workbook is reopened.
Everyone that uses this file will have to do the same.

In Excel2007...

Home button Excel Options Trust Center Trust Center Settings...

In the Trust Center dialog...

Macro Settings
..choose option2 under 'Macro Settings' section

...which will disable macros with notification that prompts you to
enable them via a warning bar at the top of the worksheet. Note that
leaving macros disabled will require making the changes manually, same
as without the macro.
