Default Copy/Paste dates from CSV file - date format error?

Hi All,

Using Excel 2003 & Windows XP, UK regional settings.

I am developing a solution that is very date dependent and requires a
csv file to be produced from an external source. Data from the csv
file is then copied & pasted into an Excel workbook. However it seems
that although the dates in the csv file are in UK format when they get
pasted into Excel they are in US format but only for days 1 to 12.

I seem to remember something from the dim & distance path that
Microsoft knew of this 'limitation'.

Can anybody

1) confirm this is a known error / limitation in XL2003
2) suggest a workaround
3) provide code for a workaround

All help gratefully appreciated.

Kind regards

Michael Beckinsale
