Answer: How to show date printed, updated only when worksheet printed?
Yes, there is a way to show the date a specific worksheet is printed and have it remain unchanged until the worksheet is printed again. Here are the steps to achieve this:
- Select the cell where you want to display the print date. For example, you could select cell A1.
- Click on the "Formulas" tab in the ribbon and then click on "Define Name" in the "Defined Names" group.
- In the "New Name" dialog box, enter a name for the print date, such as "PrintDate_Tuesday" if you want to display the print date for the Tuesday worksheet.
- In the "Refers to" field, enter the formula
Formula:
=IF(Tuesday!$A$1="",NOW(),Tuesday!$A$1)
(replace "Tuesday" with the name of your worksheet). - Click "OK" to save the new name.
- Now, whenever you print the Tuesday worksheet, the current date and time will be displayed in cell A1. If you print the worksheet again, the date and time will not change.
Note: If you want to display the print date in a different cell, simply change the cell reference in the formula. Also, you will need to repeat these steps for each worksheet where you want to display the print date.
