    Hi e97h,

    You could write a time to a cell in one of your worksheets using an On_Close event. Then when you open your workbook you could read that number to start the timer again from a non zero time.

    If you don't want to use a cell in the workbook, how about using the Tag property in one of your objects and store the closing time there and read it on open?

    Just some ideas...

    Hi e97h,

    See my example attached. See if it does what you need. I tried to make it as simple as possible.
