Not quite, you will need to launch it, ToolsMacroMacros..., select
ShowTime and run it.

Thanks - So I just enter this in - go back to the file and it should
automatically refresh the file every minute to update the time while I
have
the file open?

Add this procedures

Public nTime as double

Public Sub ShowTime()
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value = Format(Time, "hh:mm:ss")
nTime = Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, 1)
Application.OnTime nTime, "ShowTime"
End Sub

and run it.

You need to stop it also

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Application.OnTime ntime, "ShowTime", , False
End Sub

'This is workbook event code.
'To input this code, right click on the Excel icon on the worksheet
'(or next to the File menu if you maximise your workbooks),
'select View Code from the menu, and paste the code

Is there anyway to have an excel file up and have it automatically
refresh
the file so that the time gets updated every minute?
Thanks
