Cell Format
In a predesigned workbook, I was entering a date in a cell but it would
default to the general format. I tried changing the format in the cells dialog box but it still displays as a general format. The date displays in the formula bar as a date, but not in the cell. How do I get the cell to display the date format that I want? |
