Default date problems

One more guess...

Anything in your Autocorrect list that would affect this?

I still don't have a good idea.

I did use excel/safe and opened the workbook and typed in the date 11/11/06
and it still comes up with 03/12/04 in the cell and on the formula bar it
says 3/12/2204

You say no macros, but I'd check.

Close excel
windows start button|Run
excel /safe
file|Open yourworkbook.xls

and test it out...

And do you get the same problem with every workbook?

no file starts up and dont use macros

Is the difference always the same.........if you type in 11/11/06 does it
display 12/04/03, etc..........

Do yo have any file that starts up automatically when XL starts?.......if
so, perhaps a start-up macro is doing it?

When I put in a date on the spread sheet, for instance 11/10/06 it comes out
12/03/03. In the formula bar, it say 12/03/2203. Excell worked fine a week
ago. I tried clearing the cell, went to format for date 11/11/06 is what I
want to use. I even opened a new spread sheet and the same thing happens.
My computer date is fine, dont know what else to check.
Any suggestions?
