I am using the folllowing code to get the user to input data in a msgbox and
then the data is stored in the appropriate cell. Sheets("Milestone").Select Range("C3").Select Message = "Enter Customer Name..." ' Set prompt. MyValue = InputBox(Message, Default) ActiveCell = MyValue Range("C4").Select Message = "Please Enter MS Handover Date..." ' Set prompt. MyValue = InputBox(Message, Default) ActiveCell = MyValue Range("C5").Select Message = "Please Enter Actual Handover Date..." ' Set prompt. MyValue = InputBox(Message, Default) ActiveCell = MyValue Range("C6").Select Message = "Please Enter Demo Date..." ' Set prompt. MyValue = InputBox(Message, Default) ActiveCell = MyValue Range("C7").Select Message = "Please Enter Test & Adjust Date..." ' Set prompt. MyValue = InputBox(Message, Default) ActiveCell = MyValue Most of them work fine, except the MS handover Date and Actual Handover Date. Both cells have custom format 'ddd dd/mm/yy' However when MS handover date is entered(eg user enters 13/12/06), it is displayed as 13/12/06 not Wed 13/12/06 as I was hoping for. Then to really mess it up, the Actual handover date swaps the day and month around. I know this is something to do with American and English display(Americans have mm/dd/yy, English have dd/mm/yy) but the cell still shows the format as ddd dd/mm/yy. I can only suppose it is something to do with VB working in american, but why does it not affect any other cells,and how can i correct it, more to the point. Cheers -- Dave |
