Auto Insert Date into a Cell

Is it possible for a cell to be automatically populated with todays date in earlier versions than Excel 2003?

RE: Auto Insert Date into a Cell

this does not sound like a vba code try typing
=TODAY() IN THE CELL

RE: Auto Insert Date into a Cell

Is there any way of using a macro to do this so that the date does not change everytime the file is opened, hence showing the original date of when the macro was run?

RE: Auto Insert Date into a Cell

Instead of a macro you could click in the cell where the date is to appear and use

Ctrl+Semi Colon(;)

To enter today's date in the cell

VBA tip:

Display Text In a Msgbox On Multiple Lines

When displaying text in a MsgBox you may need to show it over multiple lines. To do this use:

vbCrLf

As in:

MsgBox "The System has detected an error." & vbCrLf & "Contact your System Administrator"

The first sentence in quotes will appear above the second in the MsgBox.
