How do I change the serial date to a dd/mm/yyyy format
Somehow a colleague has managed to change the way excel displays the date. It
is now showing as the serial format even though it is formatted as dd/mm/yyyy. How do I get it to change back again? |

How do I change the serial date to a dd/mm/yyyy format
Thanks for the quick response. This is only happening on one particular
spreadsheet and is not global so changing these settings will not help ( I did check and they are correct). Any other ideas?

Could be as simple as highlighting the column, go to Format - Cells - Number
- Date and select the *3/14/2001 option. "muddan madhu" wrote: I think he might used this one =TEXT(A1,"ddmmyyyy") On Sep 22, 1:15 pm, minkypuss wrote: Thanks for the quick response.
