Go to the Control Panel in Windows, select Regional Options, click on the
Date tab and set your default date format there. You can also set your location from here "Spanish (Mexico)" and this may also correct the problem. -- Kevin Backmann "filo666" wrote: Hi, I have some date problem, in my computer control panel de date format is dd/MM/yy (Im in Mexico), in my excel workbook I have in some cells of two sheets the personalized date format as dd/mm/yy (also Ive tried the date format 14/03/05), now the problem: When I try to put the date I type 06/12/05 (December 6, 2005) but I dont know why excel change the numbers and type 12/06/05 when I deselect the cell, then, in a sheet that prints the bill order, the date is considered as 12/06/05 I mean June 12, 2005 where should say December 6, 2005.
