converting dd/mm/yy to mm/dd/yyyy
I have data in excel which I suspect is in text format and which is dd/mm/yy.
I want to convert it to date format mm/dd/yyyy. I've done this before successfully, but I don't remember how. Please help. |

converting dd/mm/yy to mm/dd/yyyy
Try this:
Select the range of "text dates" From the Excel Main Menu: <data<text-to-columns ....Click: [Next] ....Click: [Next] ....Check: Date....DMY ....Click [Finish] Does that help? -------------------------- Regards, Ron Microsoft MVP (Excel) (XL2003, Win XP) "nicolamoore" wrote in message ...
