Hi,
i need the current date and time, in this format mm/dd/yyyy:hh:mm:ss
i used the custom format, to get the desired result.
But, wen i get into the edit mode (F2), it displays "6/25/2007 3:05:08 AM"

Please help me with this, i need to COPY the date in mm/dd/yyyy:hh:mm:ss
format.

Thanks in advance,

Khaleel

Not sure if this will be a satisfactory solution, but if you need the
date/time in that exact format, you can use this formula to force it...

=TEXT(NOW(),"mm/dd/yyyy:hh:mm:ss")

Let me guess... that solved your problem, right? <LOL

Usually I don't post back with a "You are welcome" message because I feel
that it is understood by the fact that I posted a response in the first
place; however, give the enthusiasm of your "thank you" message, I could not
resist. You are more than welcome... I am glad it helped to solve your
problem.
