how do i keep a time and date function live??

I want to have a countdown and have done that but it does not keep up to date unless close and open it again.
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
Sort by date Sort by votes
As far as i know its not possible to have a "Active" Visual countdown timer, within excel because the formulas such as NOW() etc will only refresh when you actively do somthing within the worksheet.

You could always press delete in a empty cell, or refresh the page which will cause the functions to re-calculate.
