UserForm including TextBox with date (UK format)
 

Hello

I have database which includes also dates in UK format (dd.mm.yyyy). I
am able to display everything using UserForm with TextBoxes, but dates
are displayed in US format (mm/dd/yyyy).
I am able to change that when I leave the TextBox where is the date
using the following procedure

Private Sub TextBox13_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
Dim dt As Date
dt = TextBox13.Text
TextBox13.Text = Format(dt, "dd.mm.yyyy")
End Sub

but the question is - is there some way to display date in UK format
immediately when UserForm with the TextBox including date is
displayed? (after UserForm.Show)? so there is no need to go into the
TextBox with date?

Thanks for the comments
Regards
Johny

John,

Why don't you also format the textbox when you load it?

Texbox1.Text = Format(theDate,"d.mm.yyyy")
