Add time and date stamp to Excel comments.
 

Ahmed,
If you just want the current date/time in a cell, enter: = now() into the
cell and format the cell as mm/dd/yyyy h:mm

Add time and date stamp to Excel comments.
 

This code will append the current date to existing comments in the comment
box of the selected cell.

Sub DateToCommentBox()
ActiveCell.Select
If Not Selection.Comment Is Nothing Then
Selection.Comment.Visible = True
Selection.Comment.Text Text:=ActiveCell.Comment.Text & Chr(10) & " " &
Date & Chr(10)
Selection.Comment.Visible = False
End If
End Sub

If copying, watch out for word-wrap

Vaya con Dios,
Chuck, CABGx3
