Can someone give me an example of a formula that will look at the contents of
one cell, and if that cell is = 0 then another cell will display todays date
and time.

another way
=IF(AND(NOT(ISTEXT(E2)),E2=0),NOW(),"?")

Joe,

The formula can't put anything into another cell, but you could have a formula in the cell
that's to show the date if another cell is = 0.

If A2 is the cell to be examined for =0, put this in the cell that's to display the date.

=IF(A2=0,NOW(),"")

This will display the current date-- it doesn't freeze the date. Today it will display
today's date. Tomorrow, tomorrow's date.
