Actually you would have to use vba to see seconds ticking

Thank you but it isn't live.
AlKey, I think he wants a running clock that keeps ticking while the sheet is open (correct me if I'm mistaken).
I don't think it is possible without VBA.
here is a link to another site that appears to have addressed it...

Yes I want a live clock and VBA is most likely the only way.
Where to put this module please?

I attached the file with 'Switchboard' cells E1 and F1 locations for date and running time if that helps.
Thank you so much for the help
I wish I could help but when it comes to VBA I am almost a total novice. When it comes to using VBA the most I can do is copy someone else's code and slightly change things to suit it to my needs.
I just assumed that your request would need something active like VBA and searched on the subject to get the two links I copied.
So I'll have to bow out, good luck and I'll be interested to see what develops.
Could you possibly refer another expert for me please?
I posted your request to the water cooler where they have a thread called call in the calvery for people when they get out of their league or depth here...

Hopefully someone will see it and stop by to assist.
Your sample file does not include any regular modules. I am not sure why you have put the code in the sheet4 window. I also note that you did not include all of the procedures (like the SetTime subroutine). Starting from the first mrexcel link that sambo kid posted I:
1) opened a new, blank workbook and opened the VBE.
2) In the project explorer pane, I inserted a module.
3) I copied the standard module code from the post into the new module (steps 1 through 3 are discussed in more detail here: https://peltiertech.com/how-to-use-someone-elses-macro/ )
4) I placed the cursor anywhere inside of the shcedrecalc procedure and pressed F5 to start the code running.
At this point, I would guess that the main difficulty is with steps 1 to 3 -- creating a regular module and copying code into it, so review Peltier's essay. Let us know if that helps.

Perfect thank you for the fix Mr. xlnitwit
