Excel 2003 keeps on changing the date that i entered. HELP PLEASE
I formatted the cell to DATE (mm/dd/yy) but everytime I key in 042909, Excel
changes the date that I entered to something like 09/15/2017. It should be 04/29/09 but it displays different date all the time. How can I fix it? I tried to highlight the cell then right click the highlighted area format cells click on 'date' in the menu then I choose the format mm/dd/yy BUT it does not work. It only works if I personally type in the slashes between month, day and year. I want Excel to enter the slashes automatically for me just like it does the dashes for social security number. No matter what date format I selected, the date changes everytime after I go to the next cell unless I key in the slashes. Any help is greatly appreciated. |
