Paste this code into the THISWORKBOOK Module and then pick a cell (say A1)
that where you'd like for the date and time to appear and in it enter
=LastSaved


Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
ThisWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="LastSaved", _
RefersToR1C1:="=""" & _
Format(Now, "mmm-dd-yyyy hh:mm") & """"
End Sub

I'm looking for a way to capture the date a file was last updated in an Excel

not the date the file was printed.
