How do I fix a YMD format?
An Excel file sent to me used a YMD date format.
Since then, all my old and new Excel files default to the YMD format. Selecting a cell, a cell range, or a column, and then DataText to ColumnsNextNextGeneral/Text/Date = MDY (or any other date format selection) Finish has *no*effect. No changes are made to the file, and going back to DataText to Columns... shows the data format to still be YMD! FormatCellsDate & choose any format has no effect either. Did I get an infection from the worksheet that was sent to me? How can I get back to the MDY date format? I need a generalized solution since I have many worksheets in each of several workbooks that are affected. |
