Hi, I have tried to post this previously but have yet to get this solved.

I need Excel to automatically FILL-IN and UPDATE the current Date & Time in cell L2 (which is merged with L3), whenever any of the 8 Data cells (E2 to H3) in row 2 and 3 (Day 1) are FILLED for the first time.

Requirements:

1. The same should apply to each of the days below ("Day 2", "Day 3".. and so on infinitely).
2. Filling the Data cells should update the date/time cell of it’s own day only (and not the ones above or below).
3. Editing an already filled Data cell should not update the time.
4. I should be able to manually edit the Date/Time cell if needed.
5. If all Data cells of the day are empty then also the Date/Time cell of that day will remain empty.

Preferences:

Formulas are preferred over VBA codes.

Thanks
