Right-click on the worksheet tab and "View Code"

Copy/paste this code into that sheet module.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error GoTo ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range("A1:A10")) Is Nothing Then
With Target
If .Value < "" Then
.Offset(0, 1).Value = Format(Now, "dd mmm yyyy hh:mm:ss")
End If
End With
End If
ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Any time you make a change in a cell in A1:A10 range, the date/time will appear
in corresponding cell in column B

I have reread it several times but don't understand most of it. How / where
do I get the macro into s/s? Want to see if that works.
Thanks

So in your change you removed the circular reference which stopped it from
updating. Read again the page to which you were referred (which explains
how the methos works), and try the method suggested there.

hi david.
once the function NOW is used it automatically updated when s/s is open or
f9, etc.
i used their formula
=IF(A1="","",IF(B1="",NOW(),B1))
my formula is
=IF(AL3=1,NOW(),"")

Which of the methods suggested there are you using? Don't they each
remain
constant? Perhaps you need to look again at your modifications.

thank you. with modifications it works except that i need the
date/time
to
enter and then become constant and not update.
is that possible?

cell

areas
in
excel i have never used.
thanks in advance.
