Date formating problem
Dear All,
I have date formating problem in Excel. I'm exporting data from QuickBooks application to Excel and after this I want to reformat Date column in Excel sheet. When I select cells with date I see that it has format Text which I can't change. When I choose another format then cell view stays same. I found following way: 1. Select all cells with Date. 2. Edit-Clear-Format. 3. Doing operation F2-Enter for each cell. I'm wondering how I can do same things more quickly without F2-Enter operation for each cell. Best wishes, Lado |

OK through the dialog. This will do the equivalent of F2'ing each cell. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Kiknadze Lado" wrote in message ... Dear All, I have date formating problem in Excel.
