Cell that is formated for Date shows a diffrent number
I have an Excel form with a Cell that you need to input sale date that I
input my self. The cell changes from example (12/1/2009) to 32453, but once you double click on the cell it show the hidden (12/1/2009) once you click out of it, it revets to the 32453 number. I check the cell format and it show as date. |

This sounds very odd because 32453 = 11/6/1988 and not 12/1/2009

You're looking at formulas.
In xl2003 menus: tools|options|view tab|uncheck formulas I don't recall where under the Office button|excel options this is kept, but... ctrl-` (control-backquote, the key to the left of the 1/! on my USA keyboard) is the shortcut key for toggling this setting.
