Default excel date format problem

Dear All,

i'm trying to set a custom autofilter using VBA/inputboxes. everything
seems to work BUT I am trying to filter dates taken from inputboxes and in
the process, the days and months are being transposed... eg, in the
inputbox, i entered '1/6' meaning '1st June 2008' but the
autofilter is showing '6th January 2008'... obviously returning the wrong
result.

any ideas how to fix that?! I'm using the following syntax to set & use the
date variable: -
==
Dim rng1, rng2
rng1 = Format(CDate(InputBox("from")), "dd/mm/yyyy")
rng2 = Format(CDate(InputBox("to")), "dd/mm/yyyy")
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="<=" & rng1, Operator:=xlAnd,
Criteria2:="=" & rng2
===

tia,

Tim
