Converting Dates
I ahve a spreadsheet with several thousand rows of information. Column A of
the spreadsheet contains a date reference as follows: A 1 1/12/93 2 1/17/93 3 2/5/94 4 12/12/03 I want to use a pivot table to report this information by month and by year. I would like to change the date reference in each of the rows in Column A so that the day of the month reference would be 1. The above cells would now look as follows: A 1 1/1/93 2 1/1/93 3 2/1/94 4 12/1/03 How can I easily accomplish this? |

Converting Dates
Use a helper column and put this and copy down....then Copy PasteSpecial
Values on that column to emiminate the formulas =DATE(YEAR(A1),MONTH(A1),1) Vaya con Dios, Chuck, CABGx3 "Mike" wrote: I ahve a spreadsheet with several thousand rows of information.
