Adding a date when something was created.
Is there a way to have excel add the date that some data was entered inton a row. I was wanting it to go at the end of the info that has been entered.

Okay, this thread is getting rather 1 sided, BUT. I just tried changing the date on the clock on my computer to 11th to check if my new function worked. but it changed all the existing dates to the 11th, will this continue to happen, or is it just because i cheated and changed the date early. :( -- Aikisteve ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Aikisteve's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=36111 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=570319 |

Unfortunately, if you simply use the "Today" command, it will return the date of the current day you are looking at the sheet. The IF functions should be able to take care of it if you use circular references, but I'd have to sit and think for a while on how to do it. -- redstang423 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ redstang423's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=37333 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=570319 |

Steve,
You need to use a worksheet change event to do that: for example, for a change made to any cell in column B, the date when the entry is made or changed is stored in column A using this code: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim myCell As Range If Intersect(Target, Range("B:B")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub Application.EnableEvents = False For Each myCell In Intersect(Target, Range("B:B")) Cells(myCell.Row, 1).Value = Now Cells(myCell.Row, 1).NumberFormat = "mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss" Next myCell Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub Copy this code, right-click on the worksheet tab, select "View Code" and paste the code in the window that appears.

Hi Bernie, that works brilliantly, thanks ever so much, IS there a way for that to display the date in the cell rather than the formula bar. Also can it be made to display in the 9th column rather than the first?
