Excel 2016 - NOW Function - How To Use The NOW Formula in MS Excel - Insert Functions and Formulas

In this tutorial, I show you how to use the NOW function in Microsoft Excel 2016 on Windows 10. This formula is the same on a Mac, and the steps and process should be the same. The NOW function returns the serial number of the current date and time. The NOW function is useful when you need to display the current date and time on a worksheet in Excel 2016 or Office 365. It can also be used to calculate a value based on the current date and time, and have that value updated each time you open the workbook.
