If you don't want to be tied to a macro then you can just highlight the dates
and do a find and replace on the 0 with a 0. When the replace is done it will implicitly convert the text to a date. -- HTH...

If I format the column as a date it doesnt change until I press F2 and hit enter and then it shows as 04/01/2005 or 03/01/2005. Which is what I want. Can anyone tell me how what code to use to tell it to press F2, hit enter and then move down one cell until it reaches a blank cell. Or is there a way to re-calculate all the cells without having to open them? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. |
