I need to record time next to eg.: W3 cell,
Now I'm using below formula :
=IF(W3<>"",NOW(),"")
but the NOW function keep updating time itself, is there any VBA code or function that I can use with this formula ?
In my spreadsheet, I want a macro to write date and time everytime the user change a cell with a list validation. On the table, the E column contains the status of each row. I want to know since when the status is that.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am looking to have a macro which will automatically add the username and date to a cell, when the cell above changes (or in this case =x). I have a bit of code from a previous project, but I have changed Target.Row to Target.Column and it is not behaving as I require:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Range("B2:BZ2"), Target) Is Nothing Then
Range("C" & Target.Column).Value = Format(Date, "dd-mmm") & " " & Format(Time, "hh:mm") & " by " & (Application.UserName)
End If
End Sub
See the attachment for the example. What I need is whenever row 3 ="x" I need the corresponding cell in row "d" to update with the latest date, time and username. Please not the macro is currently not active on the sheet as i've added the ' character.
In the spreadsheet attached, i have a formula now() which will update the current time in column B if i select opted from column A and similarly in column D the current time will get updated when i select option in column C.
However when i first select the option in column B the current time gets updated but after a while if i select the option in column C the time in the column B is also getting changed.
May be there is a different formula, Not sure what is the trick ?

I have a spreadsheet where an engineer is expected to record sample temperatures of water outlets, along with the time he took the sample. Each outlet has a row on the spreadsheet with a column for the Temperature and column for the time. I would like to automatically input the current time(or time and date) on each line as the temperature is entered.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI know that =now() will give me the time, and keep updating itself, but is there a formula I can use that will give me the time the cell was written into and maintain that time .. example, if I entered something into the cell at 3:45:21pm I want that time recorded in that cell and not change as they day moves on
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 3 text boxes, which is set to show the following:
TextBox1 = B36
TextBox2 = E36
TextBox3 = G36
B36, E36 and G36, change value each time the dropdown menu's in B6, E6 or G6 are changed. However it doesn't update in the TextBoxes, only if I click the TextBoes afterwards.
For some reason, the charts in my excel workbook do not update automatically when the data are changed. I have set Calculation to Automatic, but it still doesn't work. They update only if I close and reopen the workbook. Is it due to a problem with setting? How can I get the charts to automatically update?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI need a way to compare the time of the computer with the one in the cell and bring up a message box if the time matches.
Yet i don't want it to be a one time makro. What i want is to be able to work with the worksheet and that at the same time i want a paralel function to check whether the time in the cell matches. Something like agenda in Outlook.
When a cell changes i would like the cell in the next column to record the date of this change. After achieving this i want to set up conditional formatting to compare this date to the current date and if they are the same then change the original cell's colour to show it changed today!
I started using the code below (from ozgrid) which was working fine BUT my cell value in column A is actually taken from a different column. when the different column cell value changes my cell in A changes but the script below does not seem to see this as a change. it only records the date if i physcially change the cell in A rather than another cell prompting it to change.
based on my overall objective and my plans to date please can someone suggest a solution?
current code below....
I have a workbook that has two worksheets. One worksheet is an input worksheet. A user will select a date from a drop-down list and type in the events that occurred on that date in 8 adjacent cells. The user selects a button that advances date and clears form. On sheet 2, whatever was typed into sheet one is saved via VLOOKUP formula. However, if I try to change something retroactively and select a previous date from the drop-down list, it clears everything in sheet 2 that was typed for any selected day.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want a macro to take the current time and if it is less than 09:00am, I want it to set a variable to be the current time on the previous day.
Basically, an operational day runs from 09:00am to 08:59am the following day.
08:45am on Saturday 13 July (for example) should be recorded as 08:45am on Friday 12 July.
What is the code i need to use to assign a macro to a command button which inserts the current date and time in the selected cell regardless of where that cell is?
View 5 Replies View Relatedi am trying to figure out, how to automatically update time, based on specific city's time zone? Lets say, if the city is dallas, time zone is Central GMT-6. In the next cell, the time shows up as Dallas's local time, instead of local computer time. And this time updates itself after every 2 min.
2ndly, if that city's time is later than 8:59 PM local time, that specific city's cell grays out.

How do I write formula in excel cell to add current time, example 1100 + 42 minutes. 42 minutes is standard to add.
example:
1032 + 42=1114
1200 +42=1242
930 +42 = 1012
1400 +42 = 1442
i have this excel sheet that am using as a monitoring device to track the login and log out patterns of a group of 20 agents. i am able to monitor their current state by using an external link to the local intranet and vlookup.
the status of agent can be either Logged In or Logged Out which populates in E6 to E25.
the cells f6 to f25 again running vlookup shows the last login time of the agent.
what i'm looking for is this:
every time the agent status changes from Logged In to Logged Out or visaversa, the corresponding blank cell in the row needs to populate the the time by value.
I have created a pivot table that is connected to an input sheet with data. The input sheet retrieves data automatically from a external source through an add-in to Excel. When updating data the fields expands, but only for the items which have been changed. I want the table to be updated automatically, but not the fields expand automatically. Is there any pivot options to prevent this problem?
It should be mentioned that the pivot table is not directly connected to the input sheet (which is updated from the external source), but from a "help-sheet" reflecting the input sheet with some additional columns. I use conditional formatting and name range in the pivot.
in my spread sheet i am trying to use the if function to compare the current time ( vb code used) to a time i enter to alter another cell.
for example
if A1(current updating time) = A2 ( time i choose) then
B1( some value ) = B2( another value)
the point of this equation is to have B2 update its value from B1 every day so today B2= 3 and B1 =4 then tomorrow B2 would = 4 etc , i just dont know how to do it.
On opening of an excel document is it possible to have a date in a cell that will continuously update. =now() enters the date required but if i was to go into the sheet days or whatever later is there a way that this will update automatically??
View 3 Replies View RelatedTrying to create a macro that will add the date & time & initials (i.e 8/26/09 2:34 PM JOD) into the current cell.
I've found plenty of macro's that will do this but it ends up deleting any existing text within the cell. I need to be able to add it in the middle of a text string.
I am trying to write a formula that will have the cell display todays date if it is after 2:00PM, and if it is before 2:00PM I need the cell to display Today()-1. I have tried several iterations and I'm stumped.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am creating a spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel 2007 which holds information about the airline Emirates which I have created using information from the internet. I am currently creating a sheet which has all their flights in and holds information about the departure time and arrival time of the flight and the type of aircraft ect. I am wondering if there is anyway in being able to have the cell which has the flight number in to change colour (Green or Red) if the flight is in the air or not by using the departure and arrival times already set on the sheet. I am wondering if you possibly need to have a live time on the sheet so that it can work with that .....
View 1 Replies View RelatedI needed a code that would input the current date and time in the cells in column N whenever changes were made to any cells in the row from columns A to M. For example, if I change a name in cell 6D, then cell 6N would automatically change to the current date and time.
I found a useful code on a forum (maybe here, don't know for certain) and modified it to suit my needs (see below). I am however now getting a debugging error suggesting that the second line that reads "Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()" is causing an error.
I have a Macro 'Timenow' to give current time in a Cell of MS Excel, but then it changes all Cell values of sheet where the macro was used.
Sub Timenow()

' Timenow Macro
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+b
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=NOW()"
Selection.NumberFormat = "h:mm"
Range("F5").Select

TN = Format("=now()", "h:mm")
ActiveCell.Value = TN

how to restrict the macro to change the value of current/active cell only without effecting other cell values?

Is there a way to cause a particular VB function I write to execute any time a value in a particular range of cells is changed?
I thought I had it when I thought I could do a sum formula, range on the cells to be checked, then call the function as a side effect of this sum. It was then that I realized I didn't know how to call VB from within an Excel cell formula.
1. Is there a way to call VB (say, sheet1.myFunction())?
2. Is there a better way to do what I want than to try to hack a side effect into a formula in a cell that depends on a sum (which "watches" for the changes for me.)
The cells would have text in them, not numbers, so using the sum-based formula would be iffy at runtime to me at best. What I really want to do is run a function on the cell value as a string. There are a lot of such cells (thousands) so ideally I would only need one external cell to activate the function (which scans all the cells I am concerned with) rather than have to paste a custom, relative formula into thousands of cells manually to have each one watch one cell, if you know what I mean.
I've got a simple code that creates a new text file in which progress of the macro is logged. I wanted to add also time stamps at the end of each line, so that the user can see when a given stage of the macro finishes working.
[Code].....
And then, in various portions of the code, after certain jobs are finished, I simply add:
[Code] .....
And it all works fine, only the problem is the time stamp is not updated... So say I run the macro at 10:00 - the time stamp on each line shows (date) 10:00...
