I have a Excel file that increases in size each day. Now it is 15.9MB and by Monday it will grow to 16.0MB. I am looking it up through properties now and I thought I would use the GetFileSize to have it show automaticaly.
When I use the command I get a #NAME? I have checked and the Format Cells Number is set on General.
I had hoped that the GetFileSize would display the 15.9MB automaticaly.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for your help

GETFILESIZE()/(1024^2)

Thank you for the help. I had the answer all the time and was not smart enough to use it.
I have it showing the total file MB in one cell and the total file bytes in another cell and in another cell it lists the average bytes per line of data.
As lines are added it shows the increase.

Thanks for the help this time and all of the times in the past, you are GREAT group of people.
