I am pulling data out of a student information system in a txt format, then
open it in Excel to format each field as necessary to submit to a testing center for data purposes. The birthdate comes out as (for example) as 7/23/1996; once it's opened in Excel I use the Format Cells function to change it to 072396 per the testing center's parameters. When I validate the spreadsheet, the value changes to 35269. What do I need to do differently to have the value remain 072396 after validation? |
