Default Date format in VBA

Thanks
This is perfect but
Can I use this calendar in a user form? Data is being entered using a user
form I created. Thanks Dave

You may want to consider using a calendar control. It'll remove any ambiguity
from what the user enters.

Did the user mean Jan 2, 2003 or Mar 1, 2002 when he or she typed 01/02/03 in
the text box.

See Ron de Bruin's site:
