on my excel file the date is in 9/9/2009 format, so if I search the date
09/09/2009 there is no result.

Ok, sorry, you're right, Search (and Filter) use an ugly combination of data
and text representation. It is among a few things Excel still doesn't do too
well.

Select the cells and format them as you wish (how to do this depends on
which Excel version you use). This will not alter the real cell content -the
formula bar will still display 09/09/2009 (or 09.09.2009 ?) as it does now.
