Embedding file name in a Cell

Anyone know how to link / write the excel spreadsheet file name into a cell
in the actual spreadsheet?
I know you can do it in the header / footer ... that's not what I need.

Also, how about the "Last Printed" or "Last Saved" date saved to a cell in
the spreadsheet.

Thanks,
Mark

You'd need to use VBA. Put these in your workbook code module

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
With Range("A1")
.Value = Date
.NumberFormat = "dd mmm yyyy"
End With
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave( _
ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
With Range("A1")
.Value = Date
.NumberFormat = "dd mmm yyyy"
End With
End Sub

adjust the range reference as desired. Note that this will put the date
in even if the user cancels the save or print.

If you're new to macros, see David McRitchie's "Getting Started with
