Set cell to record date when adjacent cell is filled AND NOT RESET
I am trying to have the date of input marked for a cell in another location
using an "IF" Function. The only problem is that when I open the sheet the next day, it updates the date and does not solve my problem. =IF(D3="R", TODAY(), "NA") Any other options besides TODAY() that will help? I need it to only change when data in the referenced cell is changed, not every time I open excel. |

Use event code
Option Explicit Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Const WS_RANGE As String = "D3" '<== change to suit On Error GoTo ws_exit Application.EnableEvents = False If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then With Target If .Value = "R" Then .Offset(0, 1).Value = Date .Offset(0, 1).NumberFormat = "dd mmm yyyy" End If End With End If ws_exit: Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub 'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be 'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard 'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select 'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in. -- --- HTH Bob (there's no email, no snail mail, but somewhere should be gmail in my addy) "The new guy" <The new wrote in message ...

Bob,
Tried your code but still can't seem to get the field to fill in correctly. I actually had a completely different cell's info change to the date but it still updated automatically with the current day after I changed the date in my calendar. |

Bob,
Took some messing around but I got it to work and it's perfect! Thanks for your support!
