Convert Non-US Dates To US Date Format

Dec 9, 2006

I am parsing a string which contains (European) dates:

"10/08/2005,11/08/2005,12/08/2005,13/08/2005,14/08/2005,".

When broken into individual cells, dates before the 13th of the month are recognised as "American" dates and display as "08/10/2005", "08/11/2005", 08/12/2005" etc. with automatic date format. Dates from the 13th onwards are left in general format as "13/08/2005", "14/08/2005".

I have written a macro that converts each date individually to its correct Excel serial number, but I can't help thinking that there must be a simpler way, and that I cannot be the first to have asked this!

Convert Dates To Another Format

Feb 15, 2010

I have attached a sample of the raw output of some call records from our telephone switch. My problem with the date data is twofold; first of all it outputs it in mm/dd/yyyy format, or so it appears. But when I try to change the format to mmm/ddd/yy Excel always interprets the 2nd pair of digits as the month instead of the first two. For example,the following 2 calls are from Jan 1st and Jan 2nd respectively;

01/01/2010
01/02/2010

but excel always treats the 2nd record as Feb 1st. I have read numerous posts from people with similar problems but I can't get any of their solutions to work with my data.

The second problem is that on the 13 of each month the phone switch suddenly stops putting a leading zero in front of the date making the data totally unreadable to Excel apparently. Again, I read a post of a similar problem but can't get their solution to work. My ultimate goal is to reformat the date data so that it is displayed as; ddd mm/dd and leave out the year entirely. Ex. Fri 02/12 as in today...Friday, Feb 12th. I really don't know if the problem is with the data or me at this point.

Convert Dates To Text Format Using A Macro

May 16, 2007

Is there a way I can convert dates to text in a CSV file (opened via excel) using a macro?

Currently I have excel recognised dates in the first column of the format dd-mm-yyyy and a corresponding values in the second columns.

I know once I have the file open I can enter the following formula in an adjacent coloum "=text (A2, "MMM-YYYY") but I need to change the format in the existing date feild and not create a new coloum. Sure I could copy and paste the new formatted dates into the cell, but in terms of what I need to do, this is not practical as I several of these CSV files that I need to query and extract data from daily using a macro.

The macro is not currently working because the date format is wrong. I need it to appear as MMM - YYYY. When you view the date in excel it must appear like this (as it would appear in say microsoft word) and not with the underlying date format.

Automatically Convert Dates To Xx07 Format

Jul 3, 2007

Is there a way to find cells that have a date in them that has a text digit with a 2 digit year to 'xx07' rather than having to click on the error and selecting it manually.

it's playing havoc when I'm pulling some data from another workbook so converting en masse would sort the problem out!

Anyone know how to do this?

Convert A Date Format To A Text Format

Oct 6, 2008

Example......

In D2 I have: =B2
In D3 I have manually input: (space)3-08

As you can see the CONCATENATE puts the "39569" date in A2 But the second line puts the text date as I prefer. What I would like to do is put in a formula or macro in D2 and down that will change the "Mar-08" to "3-08" so it CONCATENATEs correctly to column A. Simply: I'm trying to avoid manually inputing the text version "3-08" (or whatever M-Y) into D2 down a hundred or so rows!

Some Dates In Format Not Being Converted Into Normal Date Format?

May 23, 2014

I have a some dates in a format which are not being converted into the normal date format. So i made this formula to convert it into the normal date format:

=IF(LEN(B218)=10,(MID(B218,4,2)&"/"&LEFT(B218,2)&"/"&RIGHT(B218,4))+0,IF(LEN(B218)=9,(MID(B218,3,2)&"/"&LEFT(B218,1)&"/"&RIGHT(B218,4))+0,IF(LEN(B218)=8,(MID(B218,3,1)&"/"&LEFT(B218,1)&"/"&RIGHT(B218,4))+0,"")))

Formula is working fine except on this type of date "9/9/2013"..i also tried an OR formula with mid but didnt get the desired result.These are the type of dates:

12/10/2013
12/9/2013
9/11/2013
9/9/2013
7/25/2013

I have imported date field values from ClearQuest(IBM Product) into Excel worksheet. after import the data display format in the excel looks like

Thursday, February 19, 2009 9:11:42 AM

Now I need to calculate the age of the defect in number of days by using the formula

=NOW()-J26 where the cell J26 contains the above data . However I always get the display as #VALUE in the cell.

I changed the field format for cell J26 to custom dddd, mmmm dd, yyyy h:mm:ss AM/PM but still does not work.

My question now is- how do I convert dddd, mmmm dd, yyyy h:mm:ss AM/PM to mm/dd/yyyy h:mm:ss AM/PM so that I would be able to find the age of the defects?

Or is the a way to change the format for NOW() to something dddd, mmmm dd, yyyy h:mm:ss AM/PM?

Convert Date Format To Text

Nov 13, 2006

I am trying to make a very simple macro but get stuck in de Excel date format. When using the date "=TODAY()" in one cel it is no problem but I want to integrate it in the CONCATENATE function.

I want to create this text "(WG 01-01-2006)" but then with the actual date of that day of course, which can be inserted in de active cell.

Whatever I do, copy, pastespecial, reed text with RIGHT, change format on an temporary cell etc. Excel keeps returning the number in Excel date format counting from 01-01-1900. Nice for calculating but I want the date text!
