Hi Sllim55,

This is probably because the file you have opened contains one of the volatily
functions. Examples are =Now() and =TODAY(). Opening a file with any of those
functions cause the file to be noted as changed.

no, the only function is =SUM, it is a very basic spreadsheet for summing
mileage and dividing by .o4. Any other ideas

thanks
