    Question Time of modification without VB

    Hi,

    I want to add a date stamp to my worksheet showing the date it was last modified (which then stays constant until the next time it is modified).

    I know how to do this using VB but the issue is that I'm working in SAP Analyzer [a very complex business add-in for Excel], which as far as I'm aware does not accept user VB editing.

    Can anyone come up with a clever workaround using only Excel functions?

    Cheers

    Not really possible. As =TODAY() is a volatile function it would update whenever the worksheet it was on calculated.

    Use code tags when posting your VBA code: [code] Your code here [/code]

    If you could be sure that between updates of the "source" cell that cell was blank (eg "apple" -> blank -> "banana") then yes you could do it with iterative calculation else no.

    OK, thanks for the help guys. I think in that case that manual entry is the best way forward!
