Hi All,
I have checked "Add-ons", install all, yet same result. to be specific,
cell G2, the formula, in A2, I enter "1/3" (ie 3th Jan) and I expect A2 to
read "3 Jan 2008", but "3 Jan 2009" appeared. Driving me cracy.
Any thing I might have miss out?

If you enter 1/3 in A2, Excel will append the current year so you will see 3
Jan 2009 in A2. This is normal behavior.

However, your formula result will be 3 Jan 2008
