Hi, When I'm using the now function in excel, it does not update automatically.
Could I write a macro that will update the now function. Basically a macro that performs a calculate every five minutes.

Thanks is advance.

Last used cell?
Press Ctrl+End to move to what Excel thinks is the last used cell.
You can have the calculate option set to manual and have the recalculate before save option checked and then install the AutoSave add-in and have it autosave every 5 minutes.

Or take a look at the OnTime function.
