Timestamp Saved
 

I have the following code:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Worksheets(1).Range("A1").Value = Now()
End Sub

This shows current date and time but i only need it to change if workbook is
modified. This code will be within a workbook that is sent from one country
to another and needs to maintain its orginal timestamp.Can this be done?

But if the user chooses to close without saving, then the change in the
workbook_open event will be lost.

If the user chooses to save, then your change is kept.

If you don't want your change to mark the workbook as "dirty" (changed without
being saved), you could use:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
me.Worksheets(1).Range("A1").Value = Now
me.saved = true
End Sub

Then the user won't be prompted to save because of this change. But any other
change will cause the prompt to show up.

Maybe give UserForm4 a name?
