How do I auto-enter the creation date in footer of an Excel worksh
 
I know how to set up the current date to appear in the footer, that's simple.
I'm looking for something like the "Insert Field" command in Word 2003 -
where the date that appears is the creation, last saved or last printed date,
not the current date. Is this possible?

You must use code to do this

See this page for a example

This looks like it should do the trick... I'm not familliar with the code
side of Excel. How could I change your example to show a creation date
instead of a last saved date?

Highlight this word "BuiltinDocumentProperties" in the VBA editor and press F1
