³How do I display time in a spreadsheet, I want the format to be Hours,
minutes, seconds am/pm, example 3:15:59 PM The problem is that I want that cell to be dynamic and updating, anytime that spreadsheet is open, and is it also possible to have it constantly updating? I know how to insert the current time, and update the field, However I want to display the time field as a dynamic digital clock, referenced to my computer time.² Thanks |

=NOW() and format as Time... Format-Cells-Time
You have to hit F9 for it to update though. There is no way to have it automatically update without a macro. Even then it would eat up considerable system resources. -- Regards, Dave "Jamie Vail" wrote: ³How do I display time in a spreadsheet, I want the format to be Hours, minutes, seconds am/pm, example 3:15:59 PM The problem is that I want that cell to be dynamic and updating, anytime that spreadsheet is open, and is it also possible to have it constantly updating?

Sorry I mean there is no way for it to *Continuously* update without a macro.
This function will update every time you open the spreadsheet, though, and when you hit the F9 key. -- Regards, Dave "David Billigmeier" wrote: =NOW() and format as Time...
