Formatting dates after importing data
Hope someone can help...
I have imported a large amount of data from a database application into a new spreadsheet. There is a column that includes dates of birth in the format ,say, 28.07.1965 How can I format the cells in that column so that they read in the format 28/7/1965. I have tried formatting the cells and trying different variations but they dont seem to have any effect on the existing data. I need to sort the data and the current formatting is not suitable. |
