    Cmd ; to insert time runs as a value rather than an action?

    Hi Guys.

    Any help with this appreciated.

    I'm running a clock in an excel sheet that refreshes every second which is fine. I then have a macro button that when clicks I want to insert a static time. Now() isn't any good here. I thought I had it sorted by using Cmd ; to insert the time but when I recorded the macro and looked at the code it's just putting in the static value from the time I recorded the macro and not the time, and each time the button is activated. Is there a way that cmd ; can be coded into a macro?

    Thanks in advance (toughie!)

    I assume that when you say you cant use Now() you mean in a cell formula ie =Now() which would just keep refreshing.

    Try this...

    it uses Now() rather than Cmd
