When was data added
I was wondering if it's possible to look at the properties of Cells or Rows
to determine when they were entered into the excel sheet? |

No, you can't get that from just the cell. However, there are ways of
building a log of cell(s) activity. That way you can look at the log and get the info you want. HTH Otto "HotRod" wrote in message ... I was wondering if it's possible to look at the properties of Cells or Rows to determine when they were entered into the excel sheet? |

Thought about that for future use but I was more concerned with the data
that already exists. I was also wondering if I built a log how much processing would be used if someone cut and pasted a bunch of data into cells. What Event would I fire on to cover a whole worksheet? Is there a way to hide these logs? Worksheets? "Otto Moehrbach" wrote in message ... No, you can't get that from just the cell.

You would want to use the Worksheet_Change event. The code in the macro
would list the cell address of the cell that was changed as well as the date and anything else you want (value maybe? Time maybe?) in some other sheet. You could set that sheet to VeryHidden. This means the sheet name would not appear under Format - Sheet - Unhide. If the user knew how, he could make the sheet visible. However, the casual Excel user would not know how. How much processing would be used is a wide open question. You would just have to set it up and use it and see if it cramps you some way. Otto "HotRod" wrote in message ...
