cell date value
Why are you using Value2? Try using this...
Range("Start_Date").Value Or, you can format the date value from Value2 yourself.... Format(Range("Start_Date").Value2, "m/d/yyyy") -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "greg" wrote in message ...

cell date value
From the Remarks section of the VBA Help Files for Value2...
"The only difference between this property and the Value property is that the Value2 property doesn't use the Currency and Date data types." The fastest way to check a keyword out in the VBA Help Files is to type the word in any code window and, with the text cursor in or next to the word, press F1. -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "greg" wrote in message ...
