CDate Problem
Hello! I have a problem converting string to date. Working with Excel 2003, function Cdate works fine. If I do ..Range(myCell).Value = CDate("22/02/2005") in the cell is shown 22/02/2005 (My regional configuration is dd/mm/yyyy). But if I use this program with Excel XP, the function doesn't work correctly because it tries to make a date which is the day 2 of the month 22. I've tried to do MiDate = CDate(#2/22/2005#) but it doesn't work. The solution in office XP is: ..Range(myCell).NumberFormat = "dd/mm/yyyy" ..Range(myCell).Value = "22/02/2005" But this solution doesn't work in Excel 2003!!! The problem is that I need a solution working for both versions. Is it possible to know the version of Excel? Can anyone help me please??? Thank-you!!! -- sil0000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sil0000's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=25460 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=389020 |

CDate Problem
This example displays a message box that contains the Microsoft Excel
version number and the name of the operating system. MsgBox "Welcome to Microsoft Excel version " & _ Application.Version & " running on " & _ Application.OperatingSystem & "!"

Try Datevalue instead of CDate.

CDate Problem
I have multiple versions on this computer and it is set to dd mm yyyy date
format. Datevalue("22/02/2005") works perfect on Excel 2003 and Excel XP. Your problem is elsewhere. There is btw a difference between Data and Date HTH.

CDate Problem
Hi Jim and Harald! I was wrong in the other message, DateSerial and DateValue were the functions that didn't work Finally I've chosen the option of get the Version and pass the value in a different way depending on the version, it's not the solution I like best but it's the only one that works..
