Hi!
Is there a formula or function that will show the date MM/DD/YY the
workbook was last changed and saved? I'm looking for a way to visually
know when the last update took place without going to the properties
window.

Any help would be great. Thanks!

'-----------------------------------------------------------------
Function DocProps(prop As String)
'-----------------------------------------------------------------
Application.Volatile
On Error GoTo err_value
DocProps = ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties _
(prop)
Exit Function
err_value:
DocProps = CVErr(xlErrValue)
End Function

and enter in a cell such as
=DocProps ("last author")
or
=DocProps ("last save time")

You can use a custom function like this:
Function LastSaved()
LastSaved = Format(ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties("L ast Save
Time").Value, "mm/dd/yyyy")
End Function

Hope this helps,
Miguel.

I need to do exactly what that guy is asking. However, I do not know
where to paste that function. I want it to show on a cell.
