Hi all!

I work with OLE, and want to do this:

somecell.value = some date (which i have in mm.dd.yyyy format
numberformat = "yyyy" // year only

nextcell.value = previous cell
numberformat = "mmm" // month as name

I have tried this, but it does not work:

$WB-Sheets(1)-Cells($excel_index,1)-NumberFormat="mm.dd.yyyy";
$WB-Sheets(1)-Cells($excel_index,1)-
Value=GetMyDateFormat(odbc_result($result,3));
$WB-Sheets(1)-Cells($excel_index,1)-NumberFormat="yyyy";
$WB-Sheets(1)-Cells($excel_index,2)-NumberFormat="mm.dd.yyyy";
$WB-Sheets(1)-Cells($excel_index,2)-
Value=GetMyDateFormat(odbc_result($result,3));
$WB-Sheets(1)-Cells($excel_index,2)-NumberFormat="mmm";

GetMyDateFormat returns the date in "mm.dd.yyyy" format.

Is there an Excel guru here?
