Date format when using combo box
I am using a combo box to fill in data in a spreadsheet.
One part of the data is the date. I have set the required cells to the following format dd/mm/yy, but when a date is input via the combo box sometimes the month and date are swapped around, eg 11/05/03 (11th May 03) is interpretted as 05/11/03 (5th Nov 03). other dates eg 23/06/03 are interpretted correctly. My Control Panel setting are set for the UK. Also, I want to only allow input in this box as a date format. if it is not recognised as a date eg 56/85/09 it will ask for another input. Any ideas? |
