Situation: In the €œView Code€� section of the sheet tab I have entered the
ComboBox AutoComplete code, which functions perfectly until I get to a
ComboBox containing the Date (dd/mm/yyyy).

Problem: When I begin to type the date it is automatically converted to a
whole number.

Example: 1/1/2010 converts to 40179

Question: Is there code that can be added to the €œView Code€� section of the
sheet tab that will prevent this conversion?

Thank you in advance.

Using VBA function: CDate(40179) returns 1/1/2010
