Date format shows on formula bar, 5 digit numbers show in row
Excel 2003, SP1
I am copying the date column from one worksheet to another within a workbook. If I paste or paste special values, the new date row shows a 5 digit number(36069), but the date in the formula bar shows MM/DD/YYYY (12/18/2006) which is the date format I am copying. I have formatted the receiving column to date before and after the paste - no change. The Tools, Options, Calculation, Date System is unchecked in both sheets. TIA, CaroleO |
