I drag across the row and get the next date for the next columns for the entire month. I have encountered a problem that now when I type a date in the cell instead of getting 03/01/08 I get 01/0/1900. I have tried reformatting using the format drop-down but cannot get it to go back to the normal format. Can anyone help me? |
