Convert Date to Text for Export
Tue, 18 Dec 2007 18:03:00 -0800 from Seamless
: I need to convert a date format to a text version of that date in order to export to another application properly. Right now, the date format show MM/DD/YYYY and is serialized. When I export, the text for that date comes up with YYYYDDMM which doe not work with the application. If there is a way to convert the date format so the text would be in order (12/18/2007) that would be great. Please let me know. Thanks! If the date is in A1, this formula will convert it in the way you want: =TEXT(A1,"MM/DD/YYYY") -- Stan Brown, Oak Road Systems, Tompkins County, New York, USA http://OakRoadSystems.com/ "If there's one thing I know, it's men.
