I have some code which checks the entry in a cell is a date and prompts the
user for a date if it's not: Dim ADate Dim Message, Title, Default Message = "Enter the date as d/m/yy" Title = "Date Format" Default = "25/12/07" Worksheets("Summary").Range("E4").Activate ActiveCell.NumberFormat = "d/m/yy" ADate = ActiveCell Do Until IsDate(ADate) ' Display message, title, and default value. ADate = InputBox(Message, Title, Default) ActiveCell.Value = ADate Loop ActiveCell.NumberFormat = "d mmmm yyyy" The trouble is, if as the user, I input 1/8/07 (in place of "1st Aug 07"), it returns the US format. ie 8 January 2007. Can anyone help to correct this, please? Apologies if you recognise any of the code - it is plagiarised from this site. Thanks |
