Default Selecting only certain characters from a cell value?


Hi all,

In a cell value (loaded from a .cap file) i have the date, which
need to use for ensuring that (when i work out how to do it), my copie
range goes into the right sheet.

So, i have the date in 1 cell in this format:
Wed 17 Nov 2004 05:34P

Is there any VBA that could almost take apart the value, and extrac
the necessary data?

I was thinking something along the lines of removing the first
characters, keeping the next 11 and removing anything after that.

That would then leave me with 17 Nov 2004, which i would then use fo
the lookup fun thats ahead of me.

Any ideas, or advice?
Thank you so muc
