column A is for date and column B is for data entry. I want column A to
populate with date when dat is entered into the adjacent cell in column B. Currently, in column A, I have: =if(b10,today(),""). The date does populate when I enter data in column B BUT every day I proceed down column B and enter data, the date changes in every cell in column A to the SAME DATE. How can I have the date stay at the date on whcih the data was entered? thanks! jane |

Jane, I'm sorry. Think I gave you the wrong lead earlier
Try instead JE's "DateTimeStamp Macro" at his page: http://www.mcgimpsey.com/excel/timestamp.html (Scroll down the page) Good luck ! -- Rgds Max xl 97 --- Singapore, GMT+8 xdemechanik http://savefile.com/projects/236895 -- "Jane" wrote in message ...

In case needed,
here's a sample implementation using JE's code: http://cjoint.com/?loeJIL0Zht Date_Time_Stamp_Jane_wks.xls When you input entries into A2:A10, the date/time stamp will be logged into col B (when you press ENTER to confirm the input) -- Rgds Max xl 97 --- Singapore, GMT+8 xdemechanik http://savefile.com/projects/236895 -- |
