revision number of excel worksheet..

[PhantomSteve]

Is there any way I can get a cell to show the revision number of the
current document (ie how many times it has been saved)?

In Word, this is done by inserting the field {DOCPROPERTY "RevisionNumber"}

Is there any way (eg a function) which I can use to access this property?
Alternatively, is there any other way to do it, so that it has one added
every time the fil is saved?

You are looking for "BuiltinDocumentProperties"

A function demonstrating it is in:

If you have Excel 97 the rest of the workbook might also be interesting!
