Can you add the current time to a cell which auto updates by the second ??

E.g. =now()

Derek

i'm not sure i would ever do it, with the system timer in the bottom right
corner of most screens and the time only changing every minute, but here you
go. Put in a module and don't plan on running other code.

Sub MyTimer()
Do
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
sheet1.cells(1,1)="=now()"
Loop
End Sub
