Default If formula - URGENT

If you want the current date & time in B if A isn't blank, but you want B
blank if A is blank, then you could change your formula to
=IF(A1="","",NOW())
but remember that it will continue to show current date and time each time
you open or update the sheet.

If you want the value frozen at the time A is filled in, then you'll
probably need a VBA solution.
