Hello Mohammed, Not without using VBA. Several people have asked similar questions recently. It is possible to do this using VBA macros, but I would suggest using the CTRL-; keyboard shortcut to enter the current date instead. A simple formula using DATE() will not work because it will be recalculated frequently, and will use the current date each day. For your solution, you could use a Worksheet_Change event like this: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim rng As Range, cell As Range ' SUPPLY DATE FOR COLUMN A WHEN "Y" ENTERED IN COLUMN B. ' Identify changed cells in column B. Set rng = Application.Intersect(Me.Range("B:B"), Target) ' if cells were identified... If Not rng Is Nothing Then For Each cell In rng If UCase(cell.Value2) = "Y" Then ' disable events to avoid another worksheet_change event Application.EnableEvents = False cell.Value2 = Empty Application.EnableEvents = True cell.Offset(, -1).Value = Date End If Next cell End If End Sub Asa From: excel-macros@googlegroups.com [mailto:excel-macros@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mohammed Muneer Sent: Monday, February 27, 2012 7:55 PM To: excel-macros@googlegroups.com Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ If I input Letter Y is should show the current date.......(28-Feb-2012) like this......
