Change date format
Can someone please help?
The macro I am writing reads in a date from Cell A1, which is formatted as dd/mm/yy. I want to create a new sheet with this date as the name. I know that the sheet name cannot have "/" in it. The sheet is protected and I cannot unprotect it. So what is the code to read in this date and convert it to a text string in the format of dd-mm-yy? Thanks in advance Warren |
