    Hi

    You van use today() if you want always today date that will updated automatically
    Or

    Based on the difference between two systems Try thisot

    H7:
    =IF(E7="","",E7-20711)+H7

    Hello Mahju,

    Thanks for your prompt reply. I put your code but no response to me. I don't want to keep =today() formula because I want to keep record of date.

    Re: How can I insert date of today in column C when I enter data in column B?

    Hi

    In D25, of your example, put this.

    =IF(B25="";"";IF(D25="";NOW();D25))


    . Go to Tools  Options  Calculation Tab  Check the Iteration checkbox, to be 1. Not 100!!

    Hope to helps you.

    Re: How can I insert date of today in column C when I enter data in column B?

    Hi

    Another solution

    simpler but somewhat semi-automatic

    Tye the start date and write "N" in the new day column at the start of day. Your dates will be increased by 1

    see attached also
    hope it help
