Trying to set up field in Excel Data Source file so that the current date can
be input in letters typed in this format '31st January 2005' Is it possible or am I stuck with dd/mmm/yy format? |

Malcolm,
Why not just format it as you want, but input as standard dd/mm/yyyy. You can't (easily) get the 1st 2nd etc, but a format of dd mmmm yyyy is quite close. -- HTH Bob Phillips "Malcolm Agingwell" wrote in message ...
