Just wanted to follow-up,
ID property seemed to be working until I upgraded to 2007(?)
In 2002 I wrote a value to ID once, and kept using it even as the cell was
changed.
With 2007, it seems, ID gets whipped-out whenever a new cell-value is written.

Oh well!

You could always use another cell (on a hidden worksheet???).

xl2002 (I think) added a property to the range object named .Id.

Depending on what you're doing, it may be useful. The .id property is used for
HTML stuff.

If you save as a normal excel workbook and close and reopen the workbook, then
your data in the .id property won't be there.

Option Explicit
Sub aaa()
Worksheets(1).Range("A1").ID = "hi there"
End Sub
Sub bbb()
MsgBox Worksheets(1).Range("A1").ID
End Sub

Greetings,
Am currently seeking a way to store date,row,col info WITH each cell.
Q. Do cells have a user-defined (string) property?

This question grows out of a need to simplify associating a cell with
some other detail. For more detail, please see my previous post!

Thanks/Cheers!
