File date/time

[Briank]

I have established a command button that pulls up an
Excel file, updates it, and then saves it. This Excel
file is a rather large file and takes some time to update
and save. I would like to put some sort of text on the
form that states when this file was last updated/saved.
Therefore the user won't be compelled to click on the
command button and spend time staring at the computer
screen. Is there an easy way to put this text button on
the form?

There's a built-in FileDateTime function that will return the last updated
date, given the full path to the file.
