Default Goto specified date

Hi everyone,

I'm using Excel 2003 and trying to use Windows Find to got to a cell
containing a specified date.

C3 is the 1st date in the worksheet and all other dates are calculated from
this date.
C: is formatted custom dd-mmm-yy and B: is formatted custom dddd to show day
of the week. I've tried reformatting to Date but this does not seem to make
any difference.

Could anybody help me to find a way to goto specified dates as a way of
navigating through the worksheet?

Many thanks

When you choose CTRL+F and you are trying to find a calculated Date, you need
to type in the date as it would be in the format, i.e.: 04-Apr-08, and the
3rd pull down menu, change Look in: option to Values.
