Default Automatic date and time updation

J.E. McGimpsey shows a way to put a time stamp on the same row when something
changes:

Hi all,

I am using office 2003; I am trying to fix up a automated time tracking
system.

I like to find when the particular field is updated in the excel and
update the same in the adjacent row. Let me give you a example

Field A5 will be filled as Yes / No I want the A6 to be filled with the
date and time of the field A5 got updated

I tried with this formula: *@ A6 *I typed -=
IF(ISBLANK(A5)=FALSE,NOW()," ")

but the problem is this when ever I save the excel the A6 is getting
updated with the current time.

With regards
Pradeep
