Hello, Thanks Linda and Anthony for your suggestion of using a macro. I just got back in town. I'll give this a try once I get back to work on Tuesday. Linda, I'll be checking in on the messageboard at some point this weekend. Right now I'm playing catch up. Thanks, P. Linda p- I have had a chance to do some Excel programming lately. I don't know of a way to detect changes in an entire workbook that have not been saved, but this macro will display the last time the workbook was saved, and will display that value every time the workbook is opened. Private Sub Workbook_Open() Application.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1).Value = "Last Save" Application.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Cells(2, 1).NumberFormat = "m/d/yy h:mm AM/PM" Cells(2, 1).Value = BuiltinDocumentProperties("Last save time") End Sub -Anthony --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
