Extract data with differing date formats that I need to convert to something consistent that I can format as a date.
This is an example of data.... all with general format at the moment.

I have used this formula to extract the date portion, but I can't get this to then format as date. How do I convert this to the julian date, so I can then apply a date format?
=LEFT(G9,SEARCH("/",G9)+7)
(The day portion of this date always has a leading zero).
I have a spread sheet with a date colume that reads: 2012-06-27-19 I need to have this read like 06/27/2012 but nothing I do is working I have tried to go to the formatting process and backing the hr:mm out and that doesn't work. I really don't want to go line by line to manually correct this issue.. HENCE ... over 2000 lines
Second question: If I have a column that reads 02/15/2012 and another column that reads 3/27/2012 how to a format a 3rd column to make it read total number of days between 1st date and 2nd date?
I'm in the military and for maintenance we use the Julian date the format goes as follows "09357" that is simplified as 09 = the year and 357= the three hundred and fifty seventh day of the year. so 09357= 12,23,2009..
so on to my question:
how can i make excel auto convert the julian date to the regular date and vice versa?
I import data from web forms via Excel Web Query which has dates in the US format. I would like to convert them to the uk format. Unfortunately, unlike other data import functions in excel, web query doesn't seem to have an option to choose that. Also after asking the forum via this post, I figured that I cannot use a formula to do this, and need a macro. I recorded a macro which exports text to columns where I choose MDY function to convert the date.
However, the macro doesn't convert the bottom part of the blank cell for some reason. The macro did not work in either modified or untouched versions. When I actuallly do it through excel buttons, it works.
I have a column of dates in thie format " January 5 03:09:36 2009" which i need to convert into a proper excel date that i can do further calculations on (adding up things, graphs etc based on dates).
Note the space before the month name. I thought about doing a left(cell,xx) to get it but that isnt going to work with the space infront and the variable length of month names.
I do not necessarily need the time included, it may be useful at some point if its easy to keep it as part of the data, if not i can live without it.
I've been sent a spreadsheet in which one column represents dates, but they have been entered as plain text, MM/DD/YYYY (ie 12/31/2008). I ultimately need to import this as a CSV into a program that only understands dates in the format DD/MM/YYYY.
I'd ideally like excel to recognise this field as containing dates, but I can't figure out how to do that, or even how to swap the days and months around as text. I'm using 2007.
I have some dates in text fomat on a worksheet that I need to convert them to true dates(Value). Here some sample of the text dates: '12/31/2011; Blank space12/31/2011.
Sub CnvtTextDate() For Each Rng In Selection Cells.Replace What:=" ", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:= _ xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False Cells.Replace What:=",", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:= _
I have a worksheet where in a column, dates are stored in various date format i.e. it may be DMY or MDY or YMD.
08-06-12
08-06-12
08-07-12
08-07-12
13/08/2012
13/08/2012
13/08/2012
14/08/2012
Above is just for an example, above dates are for the month of August, but as can been some cells are in MDY formate and some in DMY. Can I have formula to convert different date formats into one date format?
I import data from a website that has dates in the US format, but I would like to convert that to the UK format. Changing the cell format did not work.
modify this code i need to run it on each worksheet in Column A and please modify the formula part i need last date of the month
HTML Code: Sub DateFormatConvert() Dim i As Long, LastRow As Long LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row For i = 1 To LastRow If IsDate(Cells(i, "A")) Then Cells(i, "A").Value = DateSerial(Year(Cells(i, "A")), Month(Cells(i, "A")), 1) End If Next i End Sub
I have a lon list of dates in the format dd/mm/yyyy. I can change the format to DDD to show the day of the week. What I want to do though is make that permanent, not just in the format.
I have loaded a .csv file in which the first column contains date/times, e.g. 01/12/2012 00:00. How do I now tell Excel (2010) that this is in fact a date/time format? If I select one or more of the cells, click on the Number dialog box launcher and try to pick a suitable format tghe cells resolutely refuse to budge from being text (i.e. left-justified, still allows me to edit the 'seconds' component to a number > 60). Also which data type should I be using? The only one that appears to have a full date/time format listed is Custom (not Date or Time).
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?
I am having some issues converting the dates in column A on the attached spreadsheet to the mmmm format. I cannot get the dates to change format at all so I was hoping someone might have some ideas why. I have tried everything I can think of. The only thing that has worked so far has been to retype the date in the cells. I have 32000 rows of data I have to convert.
I would like to convert the active range to a date via the text to column method via a macro:
Select column or range of data with dates Data Menu Text to Columns Delimited Remove all Ticks from option boxes Next button Select Date Select format YMD or YDM (not sure what the format is from your posted example) Finish Button
I have the following code which i thought should work, but it doesnt.
in columns I and J i have text which reads as for example 20090619. I need to convert this to a date format as in dd/mm/yyyy. A lil macro would help loads. i also have some other spreadsheets that have the date as 16 jun 2009 and i have to basically go into the cell and then hit enter for it to become formatted like the dd/mm/yyyy.
I have a date which is recorded in the mm/dd/yyyy format, and in the adjacent column I would like to determine which week in the month this date is, from 1 to 4. So for example if the date was 07/02/2009, the week would be 1. For simplicity's sake I figued I would just have days 1-7 as week1, 8-14 as week 2, 15 - 21 as week three, and 22 on up as week 4. If there is a more accurate way of doing this, say that would be able to sart counting from the first full week of the month, then I would be very interested, but that seems unreasonable.
