    Excel Author identification

    Hello,

    This question was discussed previously. A file was sent to me and I strongly suspect the person who sent me the file is not the person who created it.

    I have had a look at the properties of the file and under the tab "Details" I have found the following and somebody might be able to explain what it means:

    ORIGIN
    Content Created: 01/04/2016
    Date last saved: 24/04/2016 14:06

    FILE
    Date Created: 26/04/2016 14:18
    Date modified: 24/06/2016 14:06

    I suppose the question here is whether there is any relationship between the ORIGIN (date last saved) and the FILE (date modified).

    Or maybe one of you can gather some other information based on the information I give here?

    Thank you!

    Alicia

    If you right click the file in Windows Explorer, select Properties, select Summary, then you will see the author's name.
