Hello everyone,

I am having a issue that I hope someone can help me with

I have a Excel sheet that, when completed, uploads to a Lotus Notes
database and the proper recipients are notified. I am having some
trobule converting the text dates into real dates. The code works about
90% of the time, but I would like it to work ALL the time.

The text dates can have 3 dates.

1/1/2006 = 8 chrs
1/11/2006 = 9 chrs
11/11/2006 = 10 chrs

To convert this to useable dates, I do the following:

datFirst = Trim(Left(Range("C6").Value, 10))
datLast = Trim(Right(Range("C6").Value, 10))

....because the dates can look like this:

1/1/2006 to 11/11/2006

When I use the code as typed, I get a data error that there is a Type
Mismatch, and I know why that is since if you take the first part of
the code (datFirst), it would come out as 1/1/2006 t.

Is there anyway I can eliminate this? Or am I S.O.L.?
