Hi Gigi, That's odd your today() function didn't leave a function in the cell. Perhaps because of the cell formatting or something? The behaviour with the now() function, leaving an actual function there, is more the norm as I understand it. From my testing, the now() function will update itself, so if you go back and look at it you should notice that the time outputted by the now() function should have changed. As I understand it, that's the point of those functions, so that they can update to dynamically output the current date/time.
I'm not doing anything too flash with the date/time stuff, just keeping a timesheet for work. Every time I start a new task or work for a new client, I need to enter the start time and end time, so it's much easier if I can do it with one quick key press rather than typing formulas, copying and pasting etcetera. Otherwise keeping the timesheet starts to become a bit of a task in itself. Anyway, if you wanted help creating that service thing that I created, I'd be happy to give you step by step instructions, or just email you the file or something. It's really pretty simple, and I know you'd be more than capable of it. Best, Nic -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
