You will need event code.
But if you use A5 as a trigger cell how can you fill A1:A79 with date/time as
first desired?
Maybe use a cell in Column B as a trigger cell.
Try this code in your worksheet.
Option Compare Text
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error GoTo CleanUp
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target.Address = "$B$1" Then
If Target.Value = "Title" Then
Range("A1").Value = Format(Now, "dd mmm yyyy hh:mm:ss")
End If
End If
CleanUp:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Right-click on the sheet tab and "View Code". Copy/paste the code into that
module.
