Default Customising date format

Hi Terry,

Now using Excel 365 on my new Windows 10 PC, after 15 years with XP.
(Not happy at having to pay about £5/month for my occasional use, as I
could not get Excel 2000 from Office Pro 2000 working.)


with Excel 365 you can also use CF for formatting the dates.
Format all cells with
dddd d"th" MMMM YYYY
For the special dates then use CF.
E.g. for 1, 21 and 31:
New Rule = Formula to determine...:
=OR(DAY(D1)=1,DAY(D1)=21,DAY(D1)=31)
and format:
dddd d"st" MMMM YYYY
Add new rules for
2, 22 and 3, 23
