Man, not I fell really stupid. I have not used VB in Excel in a while and
totaly forgot about it.

Thanks.

Hi
use the following UDF:


Function DocProps(prop As String)
application.volatile
On Error GoTo err_value
DocProps = ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties _
(prop)
Exit Function
err_value:
DocProps = CVErr(xlErrValue)
End Function


and enter for example in a cell (to get the last modification date)
=DOCPROPS("last save time")
(format cell as date)

I would like to find a way to insert the data that is stored on the
"Properties" page of an excel document into the cell. In work and
Visio I can do it easily but I can't figure out how to do it in
Excel. I know, it's probably simple, but I just can't think that
simple right now...

thanks
