How to change the date format?
 
In cell A1, it is 10-Apr-2010, which is saturday. If I change the format
type into dddd, then it will show Saturday.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to change the format into
Traditional Chinese "星期å…*"? what is the format coding?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Hi Eric,

Go to ToolsOptions and select the "General" Tab then select the font your
want at "standard font".

The font you need is 'simsun', so please be sure to download it if you have
not got it installed on your machine.

Download the font here
