My database has 6 fields names and I have created the following code to capture and post data to the database form a userform. It works but I am sure there is a more efficient and elegant way to do this. The two areas I would like advice are:
1. converting the date string to a date.
2. the line of code where I subtract line6 from line4.
I have these as input entered as text:
January 01, 2011 January 01, 2011 February 28, 2010 May 12, 2011 June 02, 2010 February 28, 2010 May 12, 2011 June 02, 2010 February 28, 2010
but I need it in this DATE format:
MM/DD/YYYY
I need it as a formula to be entered into a cell in excel (not VBA)
I have a date range that looks like this (British date style, not US):
edit: I posted an image but it can't be seen for some reason:
Date Range
2010 11/10 17/10
2010 11/10 17/10
2010 11/10 17/10
2010 11/10 17/10
Thus the first cell show 11 October 2010 to 17 October 2010 I want to return just the first day (the week commencing date):
edit: I posted an image but it can't be seen for some reason:
Week Commencing
11/10/2010
11/10/2010
11/10/2010
11/10/2010
I have written some VBA to the best of my ability but it seems clumsy using the FORMAT function. Is there a better of doing this with VBA. I can't seem to find a function in VBA which is the equivalent of the formula function DATE.
Code:
Sub ConvertTextToBritStyleDate()
' dd/mm/yyyy (not mm/dd/yyyy)
' Select the cells containing the dates (not the header)

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 have a field in the format of 121031. I need a formula to convert this field to a date DD/MM/YYYY format, so 121031 becomes 31/10/2012.

The following function reads many worksheets in one workbook and put the information into one worksheet. F22 to Q22 is dates in the format of mmm-yy on the many worksheets. On the one worksheet B1, C1, D1, etc... is dates also formatted mmm-yy. Now the many sheets only have a 12 month period but could be any date within 60 months. In the many worksheets the beginning date in F22 is based on the date that is entered into G8 of the many worksheets. The function is:
Code:
Function HrsByMonth(strField As String, MonthNum As Integer) As Long
Dim sht As Worksheet, i As Long, j As Integer
HrsByMonth = 0

I am trying to convert a number string date that has been stored in a database to a readable date time in an excel pivot table.
1260983366 needs to look like Wednesday, December 16, 2009, 10:09 AM.
The converted date could also look like Wed, Dec 16, 09, 10:09 AM.
I've got an odd program that exports time data formatted as a text string. For example....
0:10:25
Since it has no numerical value, then I can't simply "format as number". I'm thinking that I will need to use one of the string methods eg: mid() to check each character individually and then convert that into the equivalent numerical value.
So the numerical output I am looking for in the above example would be 625.
Is there a way to convert the string "Sep 28 2012" to excel date format using a formula or vba?

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 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.

The days of the month don't really matter. It's the month and year that I need in a date format.
I have a situation where textual comments are entered into a cell where the comments are supposed to begin with a date in mm/dd format. Some enter all 5 characters but some enter m / d in if appropriate to the date, e.g., 9/6 vs 09/06.
I'm trying to take the left 5 characters and compare that to the current date - 7 to ID aged comments and highlight that cell. I currently do this by populating a variable LastUpdate (dim as string) with the first 5 characters, then run this IF statement.
If LastUpdate < Date - 7 Then
Range("O" & i).Select
Selection = "Comments over 7 days old."
End If
This works find except in situations where there is a zero for the first character after the "/", such as "11/05." The code doesn't properly calculate the date and assumes it's old. "11/5" works just fine. I thought I could try translating the variable into a proper date. I "borrowed" this formula from another post herein: =DATE(2012, MID(N12,1,FIND("/",N12)-1), MID(N12,FIND("/",N12)+1,2)). This works fine as a formula to translate the characters into a date but I don't know how to do this same thing in vba.

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!
I have a column wherein the dates are treated as text , i want to convert that into dates.
