Sorry - I am at a loss with this one

You enter it into a worksheet by making a variable equal to the return value
of the built in properties:

userName = ThisWorkbook.BuiltInDocumentProperties("Author").V alue
ActiveSheet.ActiveCell = userName

Many thanks Chip, but I am not sure how I would enter that into a code so
that it would paste those values into the cells of a worksheet.

You can get the name of the file with

ThisWorkbook.Name 'or
ThisWorkbook.FullName.

You can get the original author of the file with

ThisWorkbook.BuiltInDocumentProperties("Author").V alue

You can get the last-saved-by user with

ThisWorkbook.BuiltInDocumentProperties("Last Author").Value

These two values return the name that is entered as the "User Name" in
the Options dialog box. This is not the user's logon id.

You can get the last save time with

FileDateTime(ThisWorkbook.FullName)

Is there a way of entering into cells (below each other)
1. The name of the file
2. Last person who saved the file
3. Last person accessed the file
4. Date and time last saved?
Help greatly appreciated
