Hello,


I'm having a little problem generating a date.

What I would like to do, is the following.

When an article number is entered in cell A1, I want today's date to be generated in cell A2.
I do not want this date to be changed automatically the next day, the date has to remain the same as long as there is an article number in cell A1.

Is there any way to do this ?


Best regards

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Hi Frits


If you right click on the sheet name tab and select "View Code" you can paste in this:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then Range("A2") = Date
End Sub
