why does date change when opening attachment
When I open an attachment, the date on the spreadsheets changes from the date
they sent it to the current date. How do I fix this? |

Check the cell that has the date and see if the contents are one of the
following Excel functions: =NOW() or =TODAY() Both of which update based upon the current system clock. The NOW function returns both date & time, and the TODAY function returns only the current date. -- Kevin Backmann "princessmom717" wrote: When I open an attachment, the date on the spreadsheets changes from the date they sent it to the current date.

I was a bit to trigger happy and launched the previous reply a bit prematurely.
You'll have to replace either of the aformenetioned functions with a fixed date and not a formula date. -- Kevin Backmann "princessmom717" wrote: When I open an attachment, the date on the spreadsheets changes from the date they sent it to the current date. How do I fix this? |
