I had this in my code
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 8) = CDate(TextBox_Attempt1Date)
and I wanted to include the time as well and changed it to
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 8) = TextBox_Attempt1Date

Now when i evaluate the cell<today() , I am always getting true, even if the
value from yesterday is in the cell.

How should I code this so that I get the date and time, but also so that the
comparison with today() provides valid results?

No reason not to use cdate:

? typename(cdate("01/01/2003 10:53 AM"))
Date
? cdate("01/01/2003 10:53 AM")
1/1/2003 10:53:00 AM

When I use cdate(TextBox_Attempt1Date) is only has the date, not the time.
where TextBox_Attempt1Date has the date AND time. Is there a setting that
controls cDate()?

As I demonstrated, it has the time as well if the text string has the time.
I suspect you need to format the cell to show the time.

Today at noon would look like

? cdbl(cdate(date+timevalue("12:00")))
37840.5

If I put this in a cell

Range("B9").Value = cdate(date+timevalue("12:00"))
? range("B9").Text
8/7/2003 12:00
' but if I format the cell to just show date
Range("B9").NumberFormat = "mm/dd/yyyy"
? range("B9").Text
08/07/2003
' however, the time is still stored in the cell
? range("B9").Value
8/7/2003 12:00:00 PM

I suspect you are seeing formatted output and not look at what is actually
stored in the cell.
