I need a function that records the time and date in a cell, say a2, when data in entered in to another cell, say a1 in the same spreadsheet.
This way I can tell when data in a cell in my spread sheet is updated.
I want to time stamp when I make an entry in to a cell. Example when I enter a name in a32 I want l32 to time stamp the time I entered the name.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to add hours to a date-time cell to get result in date-time.
Format of cell A1 is d/m/yy h:mm AM/PM
Format of cell A2 is General
Format of cell A3 is d/m/yy h:mm AM/PM
I want to add A2 (number of hours) to A1 to give A3.
The formula I used is A3=A1+Time(A2,0,0)
The formula works perfectly fine when A2 is less than 24, but when A2 is more than 24, the date doesn't get changed.
I would like to take this VBA a step further. What I want to achieve is to date & time stamp a worksheet in cell A1 if any other cell within the sheet is altered. Below is the VBA I used today to enter the info if cell A1 is changed. Can anyone please help with my new target.
Just one more question: When a shared file is used is it possible to also enter the username of the person who's made the alteration.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rng As Range
' Only look at single cell changes
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
' Set Target Range
Set rng = Range("A1")
' Only look at that range
If Intersect(Target, rng) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
' Action if Condition(s) are met
Target.Offset(, 1) = Format(Date, "d mmm yyyy") & " " & Format(Time, "h:mm") & " Hrs"
End Sub
I can't figure out how to get a date/time stamp to show when the spreadsheet was last updated.

I have it set-up when someone puts their initials in column B the time and date inputs in column S. But it also inputs if I hit delete or clear contents when I need to clear the form. Is there a way to make it input the time and date ONLY when letters are entered in column B?

How can I add a date stamp that will populate a field when text is entered into another cell but will not change every time I re-open the sheet. I have been using =if(B4="",NOW()) which changes each time though and as soon as text is entered it disappears. I want to capture the actual date that someone enters text into a cell and save that date in another cell???
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am having a very difficult time making this work, if there is anyone who can assist me, I would greatly appreciate the assistance. You can see below what I am trying to do. The entries between the last cells H,3 & K,3 just contain data that is not affected by the rest of the sheet functions.
Cell one (A,3) has a drop down menu for vehicle status.
(B,3) vehicle number
(C,3) Drop down vehicle type.
(D,3) is for dept.
(E,3) Date/Time stamp auto generated from (A,3) entry. (Vehicle Status)
(F,3) is POC.
(G,3) Phone/email.
(H,3) Date & Time stamp out of shop. (This cell will recieve the date & Time Stamp from entry of work done in (K,3)
I am trying to automatically date/time stamp a row when I copy entries I purge from other worksheets.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to pick up a date with time entry on a worksheet and place it into a TextBox on a UserForm. Format on the sheet is mm/dd/yyyy h:mm AM/PM. The UserForm is placing the value as mm/dd/yyyy 12:00 AM. here is the
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
If Not Range("dDate").Value = "" Then

TextBox2.Text = Format(DateValue(TextBox2.Text), "mm/dd/yy h:mm AM/PM")

"dDate" is the named range where the date is sitting. The format is also set on the TextBox2 exit event. Can anyone see why only the date portion is being transfered with the default 12:00 AM for no time component of the value?
Looking for code that auto updates today's date in column C, when cells in either column a or b of the same row are edited or changed. I have never used VBA before, just browsing forums for something that might work. I think I'm close with this one, but maybe the offset is wrong - it populates the date in column b when a change.

I work in a sales team, and am currently planning the new year of sales spreadsheets (tracking prospects and orders) These spreadsheets are linked in both directions to the Sales Director's summary spreadsheet (so that she can set the targets, and also provide a summary to the MD). She has asked me whether it is possible to put a formula in that gives the date each line (1 line = 1 prospect) was updated (so that she can see whether information in the line is current / a week old / a month old etc)
Effectively, what I need is in column A a formula which references columns B-Q and if any of those change, puts in the date of change. Is this possible, or am I going to have to ask the sales guys to do it manually? I have tried to use the =Now() function, but, because the spreadsheets are linked, and auto-update on opening, every time the spreadsheet is opened, each line goes to today's date.
The previous threads that I looked at suggested either: volatile time stamp in shared workbook
or
That is bad design, Enter =NOW() to a single name cell named cell and use date =MyD-T in ALL cells needing the Date & Time. Where MyD-T is the named cell. I would advise STRONGLY against using Manual Calculation as it's NOT good spreadsheet design and a mistake waiting to happen.
In my job, my team have to take phone-calls from stores asking various questions. In order to combat this, I have set up a call tracker to see where the calls are coming from (so we can beat them with a stick). I have asked my colleagues to record the date and time of the calls.
I need a big button at the top of the page that says 'New Call'. Then, when this button is pressed, the time and date stamp will automatically be put into cell A3, then when pressed again a4, and again a5... and so on.
I am struggling with the following:
-Using CTRL + Shift + : to input the date/time on a macro inputs the date I made the macro, not the date/time the button is pressed!
-I can only get the date to go in cell A2 - If I press it again, nothing happens. how to do this, or just do it for me

I want to put a permanent date & time stamp in cell A1 (date) and cell A2 (Time) when cell A3 is populated by any character which would be an inputters initials.
I'm thinking that it will be an "IF" statement but then I am getting confused about how I make it not update when the spreadsheet is opened at a later date and time.
I have two identical web query's on the same sheet. One from column A to column I and the other one from column K to column S, and both have 404 rows. The one on the left (from column A to I) autorefreshes every 60 minutes and the one on the right (from column K to S) autorefreshes every 4 minutes. I want to subtract the numbers in column Q from column G and the ones in column R from column H, and in both cases if the result is bigger than 0 to place a timestamp in column Y(for Q-G), and in column Z (for R-H). I tried with NOW formula, but the timestamp changed every time the web query from the right autorefreshed, no matter of the result. I guess that I have to use VBA codes...but I'm not good at that .

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a formula or VBA that will be in each in cells D5:D300 and will look at the value entered into the cell in column C and change the 4 digits into the date and time in the same format as NOW() returns.

But I would also want it to see if the 4 digits that represent the time are after 14:00 and before 00:00 then the date would be the date in cell A1-1
