    Cell automatically updates with current user

    I want to have a cell the current user of a workbook automatically
    Im using this code

    And calling the function using =UserName()
    The problem is the function doesn't automatically update when a new user opens the file. The new user has to recalculate the =UserName() function to display their name. What am i doing wrong?

    Re: Cell automatically updates with current user

    If u use a UDF it does not calculate on cell update best way to make sure it updates on workbook open is to put this in "thisworkbook"
