Thank you David, both for your own solution, and for your recommending I use
Bob's. I'd tried a lot of stuff in a helper column - to no avail until now!
Thanks,
Deb
Hi Deb,
Create a helper column, use the fill handle to copy down a formula like:
=Date(0,Month(a1), 1)

I have a report exported to XL as text file and converted to XL. The dates
appear as mm/dd/yy. I want to sort the dates by month & day, but want to
ignore the year. Is this possible? How?
Thanks,
