Help !

I need to put the last saved date of Workbook A into a cell in Workbook B.

Any ideas ?

I've been stuck for days !!!!!!
 

Excel Facts

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
You could add a simple macro to file
B

Sub test()
Range("a1").Value = Format(FileDateTime("C:test.txt"), "mm/dd/yyyy h:mm AM/PM")
End Sub

Range("a1").Value - replace with the range in file B where you want the save date to go
("C:test.txt") - replace with address of file A

Hope this helps
