Data Input Date
 
Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to have two columns. One of them will be filled by the user to input data. The other will display the data entry date automatically. Obviously I know of the Today() function. But this is no use to me as everytime I open the sheet the dates will change.

Data Input Date
 
Say the data goes in column A and we want the date automatically entered in
column B. Put this worksheet event macro in the worksheet code area:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Set r = Range("A:A")
If Intersect(Target, r) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
Target.Offset(0, 1) = Date
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
