Step 2: Double click on ThisWorkbook under VBE (Visual Basics Editor). Step 1: Create a new worksheet in your Excel workbook and rename it as per your convenience. VBA Time function can be used to track the date and time every time a workbook is opened. We might be interested in knowing the date and time on which the changes have been made in the worksheet. Sometimes, there is one spreadsheet which we open frequently (Like Employee list of an organization) and make changes into it. VBA TIME function to track the opening time and date of a workbook : Step 7: Hit F5 or Run button manually and you’ll see the output as below in cell A1 of your worksheet. Range("A1").NumberFormat = "dd-mmm-yyyy hh:mm:ss AM/PM"
#Vba ontime code
Step 6: Write the code mentioned below in your VBA script. We also can format the date and time values using NumberFormat function under VBA. Therefore, when you’ll run this code the outputs will be different. Here, again please note that the time reflecting in cell A1 is date and time by which this code is being run by myself. You will see the output in cell A1 of your worksheet as blow:
Step 5: Run the code by hitting F5 or Run button manually. Two & (and) operators work as concatenating operators which concatenate DATE and TIME with space in it. The white space enclosed in double quotes (“ “) allows having a space between date and time in the final output. The DATE function will return the current date of system and TIME function will return the current time.
Step 4: Now, use a combination of VBA DATE and VBA TIME functions as shown below and assign it’s value to cell A1. For that, start writing the code as below. Step 3: We wanted our output to be stored in cell A1 of our excel sheet. Step 2: Define a new sub-procedure by giving a name to the macro. Step 1: Insert a new module in your Excel VBA script. Let’s see step by step how we can achieve this. VBA Date will give a current date and VBA Time will give current time (which we already have seen in the 1 st example). Therefore, in VBA we have to use a combination of VBA Date and VBA TIME functions to get the current date and current time. However, in VBA we don’t have this function working. VBA TIME in combination with a Date function to return the current time with Today’s Date :Īs it has been informed earlier in the introduction of this article, there is a function called NOW() which gives you current date as well as time in Microsoft Excel. While trying it by yourself, your output may vary depending on the time you are working on this code. Please note that the time reflecting in the image above is the time by which this code is run on the system. Step 6: Run this code by hitting F5 or Run button and see the output. You should get the output as shown in the image below. Step 5: Now, use a MsgBox function to display the current time using the display message box. Having said that, the following code will give the equivalent output in comparison with the above code. Step 4: As I mentioned earlier, there is no need to add parentheses after TIME function as this is a volatile function. Step 3: Use VBA TIME function to assign current time to the variable defined in the step above using an assignment operator. Note : The reason behind defining this variable as String is, the output of the TIME function is in a string.
