Default Comparing Dates - Flawed Code?


Afternoon all,

I have a macro that compares dates but no matter what i try it doesn'
seem to work.

Simply it goes a little like:

Dim cellDate 'Date that is in a certain cell
'format DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM.

cellDate = Cells(row, col) 'Varies depending on previous actions.

Dim formatDate 'cellDate formatted
'into same as i want to compare it to.

formatDate = Format(cellDate, "dd/mm/yyyy")

If formatDate = "01/10/2005" Then

If formatDate <= "31/10/2005" Then

End If

End If

I have tried initialising the variable as dates, strings, variants, bu
none of the comparing IF statements work???

Any Help?

Thanks in advance
