Can I just punch-in the numbers for the month, day & year, without the

Date set up
You cannot create input masks for dates as you have tried to do.
Excel will accept dates only with a de-limiter such as / or - If you want to enter dates as you suggest, you would need VBA code. See Chip Pearson's site for quickentry of dates. http://www.cpearson.com/excel/DateTimeEntry.htm Or Ron de Bruin's QDE add-in. http://www.rondebruin.nl/qde.htm Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Wed, 17 Dec 2008 10:29:02 -0800, Danny wrote: Can I just punch-in the numbers for the month, day & year, without the slashes and Excel shall put the date (in the cell) in the format that I want? |
