:oops: I'm trying to do a Timestamp that won't change every time you reopen the workbook :oops: . In this linked workbook I have "Meeting Date" in column B. Column E is where I want the Timestamp. So, I can get the timestamp to display the date (I added the hh:mm:ss to test), every time I open the workbook, they all change to the current time. I would like that once a timestamp is entered and the file saved and closed, then when it is reopened, the previous timestamps don't change. So entries made on 9/22/18, regardless of when the meeting is, stay as 9/22/18 when the workbook is again opened to add more meeting.
 

Excel Facts

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.
There are several different ways to create static timestamps that don't change.
Here is a link that shows different ways of accomplishing that: https://excelchamps.com/blog/timestamp/

You can also have ones that are done automatically upon some data being entered. A simple search should return those (there are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of posts on it in this forum).
