how can I get the appeared value from the cell?
let say I have a string or date variable fileDate and on "a1" I have
the date value of 2/2/2006 when I use the code filedate = formate(filedate , "YYMM") msgbox(filedate) it gives me 27/10/2064 which I have completely no clue what had happened. So I think I should try another way. using format cell I turned the appeared value of "a1" to be 0602 and I hope to get this "0602" into my variable. My problem is that when I copy the data it doesnt copy the appeared value but the genuine value 2/2/2006 which is not what i wanted |
