formula to display "updated" date
 

Is there a way to have a cell display the date that a
worksheet was updated (not just merely opened or printed,
but actually updated, in someway)?

Thanks,

A UDF is a User Defined Function. Similar to Excel's built-in Functions but
written because Excel does not have that particular Function.

If not familiar with VBA and macros, see David McRitchie's site for more on
"getting started".

In the meantime..........

First...create a backup copy of your original workbook.

To create a General Module, hit ALT + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor.

Hit CRTL + R to open Project Explorer.

Find your workbook/project and select it.

Right-click and InsertModule. Paste the code in there. Save the
workbook and hit ALT + Q to return to your workbook.

Code to paste into the module............

Function DocProps(prop As String)
application.volatile
On Error GoTo err_value
DocProps = ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties _
(prop)
Exit Function
err_value:
DocProps = CVErr(xlErrValue)
End Function


In a cell enter =DOCPROPS("last save time")
