Excel cell showing Yr/Mo/Day in numbers only (09/11/06) can it b.
 
I want to create an excel column that will show yr/mo/day all in numbers so I
can easily sort. Can this be done?

Excel cell showing Yr/Mo/Day in numbers only (09/11/06) can it b.
 
--You can custom format to yyyy/mm/dd (Right clickFormatCellsNumberselect
Date or select Custom and enter yyyy/mm/dd)

--If you enter the dates in excel date format.you can do the sorting in asc
or desc as excel stores the dates as numbers
