You can use a helper cell. If you enter 00807 in A1 as text, then in another
cell enter: =DATE(RIGHT(A1)+2000,LEFT(A1,2),MID(A1,3,2)) -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200736 "jbergsli" wrote: I'm lazy and when I type the date in a cell I would like to type 080807 and have it dispalyed as 08/08/07. Any Ideas?? |

.... or =DATE(RIGHT(A1,2)+2000,MID(A1,3,2),LEFT(A1,2)), depending on how you
want your dates to be interpreted. -- David Biddulph "Gary''s Student" wrote in message ... You can use a helper cell.

See Chip Pearson's site for event code to allow quick entry of dates as you
