custom date format
 

I like to use this date format: 06-03-09 , but it isn't an option in my
Excel 2002 spreadsheet. I don't see it in FORMAT CELLS/DATE, or even in
FORMAT CELLS/CUSTOM . Can someone show me if and how I can format an entire
column to use this date format.

Select the cells, Format | Cells | Custom and enter mm-dd-yy. You can
specify pretty much any format you want here.
