See Regional and Language Options in the Control Panel. You may change

Hello,

If the format for date is *3/14/2008, I get the message at the bottom of the
Format Cells Box that "Date formats display date and time serial numbers as
date values. Except for items that have an asterisk (*), applied formats do
not switch date orders with the operating system." What does this mean?

Thanks!
