Nope... You can build something in via macros but it is a bit of work.

Steve has an interesting question!
Jim, that is correct, but do you really think this can be done with macro? unless this is stored within the raw file itself and if we could some how read the raw file to figure it out, because i don't see any property or method which gives this information. -kc "Jim Thomlinson" wrote: Nope...

Nothing is fool proof in macros but using the change event and the On
Open/Before Close events we can monitor the state of the file. Use the change event to track updates to existing / new sheets. On open inventory the existing sheets. On close write any changes to the sheet inventory. This is only really necessary if we want to track sheets that get deleted. If I were doing it I would write the Created / Last Changed dates metadata to named ranges that are local to each sheet. Additionally I would probably track the username that made the changes. Deleted sheets would be store in application level named ranges. Or the metadata can be sotred in a very hidden sheet but that is actually a shade more work. -- HTH...
