Hi Folks,
I've been working with some database data which stores the date as an integer (a different integer to that which Excel uses). To calculate the day, month and year I do the following calculations: y = Fix(ActiveCell / 65536) m = Fix((ActiveCell - (y * 65536)) / 256) d = Fix((ActiveCell - (y * 65536)) - (m * 256)) I now want to combine d, m and y into a single cell in the format off dd/mm/yyyy but don't have a clue how anyone able to help? |
