Default Serial number of Date

Perhaps just in say, B1: =A1,
and format B1 as general would suffice
(or format A1/col A as general)

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me why my formula =datevalue(A1) returns #Value when
the contents of A1 are 13/01/2005.

When I am converting 12/01/2005 the formula works. I think its
something to do with the US/UK version of expressing dates but I cant
work out how to fix it!

Regards
Garry
