Hi,
Not with any level of certaintity there isn't. You have the last modified date/time in File|properties but this won't tell you which data are changed only that the workbook was changed on a certain date. If this is important to you then for the future you may consider time-stamping data entries with VB code and if you need that post back with details and i'm sure someone will help.

For individual cells, none that I know of.
You could find the last saved date/time which might tell you something assuming you have a backup of the version at cutoff date for comparison. Sub dateit() ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Value = "Last Saved : " & _ Format(ThisWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties("Las t Save Time"), _ "yyyy-mmm-dd hh:mm:ss") End Sub Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Tue, 30 Sep 2008 00:01:01 -0700, Jaybee wrote: Some data was entered into an Excel worksheet after a cut off date.

Hi,
For future reference you can use the Track changes feature of Excel - jus that after tracking changes, the workbook gets "shared" and some features may be unavailable.
