Retain Date Format For Input Entered As Date?

Mar 24, 2014

I'm using nested SUBSTITUTE formula to make some changes to the some of the data. I'm also using IFERROR to return the input if it does not find the criteria I have specified. I have lot of variations in my input data.

The formula works fine for all except for date format input.

Sample:

N90232Y09--->SUBSTITUTE(A1,"N","")-->90232Y09
12335--->12335
12/3/1923---->58936 (I want the date to be retained)

why the date format is changed even if don't specify any changes for it. I expect my IFERROR to just retain the input as it is.

VBA - Validate Date Entered In Input Box Is Month Ahead Of Date In Cell

Aug 14, 2012

I have a input box that prompts a user to enter a date of a new month - it has to be the 1st of a new month. I have validation that it is a date that has been entered but then i want to validate the date entered is a month ahead of a date in a cell range on a sheet.

It is a monthly reset so it has to roll on from the previous month.

Here is what i have currently but it isn't working.

Code:

' Get user to input the first day of the new month to populate all dates with
dNewMonth = InputBox(Prompt:="Enter first Day of the new Month. Must be the 1st of the Month e.g. 01/10/2012", _
Title:="Enter Date")
' Validates the entered date is a valid date
If (IsDate(dNewMonth) = False) Then

User Input Date Not Kept In Date Format

Mar 29, 2014

My macro asks for a user input in DD-MM-YY format (which is the same format of all cells in the Excel worksheet).

I then instruct the macro to paste the string into cell A1 in 'TEST' sheet.

However when it pastes in the format is MM-DD-YY with the user input DD being the worksheet MM etc.

For example 06-04-14 becomes 04-06-14.

My code is below:

Format Date From Input Box?

Mar 10, 2012

I have an input box that requires the user to enter a date or accept today's date, which is the default, and when they click ok it is entered in cell "Data!D25". I want the format to be "yyyy-mm-dd". I have set the cell "Data!D25" to automatically use this format if I type the date directly into the cell by typing "yyyymmdd" without the dashes but when they type in the input box without the dashes, the result in the "Data!D25" cell is "############".

How can I correct this?

Code:

Sub PrintForms()
' Dim StartRow As Integer
' Dim EndRow As Integer
' Dim Msg As String
' Dim I As Integer

When entering the date in the FAOP from the drop down menu as dd/mm/yy hh:mm in is reversed.

Excel 2007 :: Date Filtering - Change Date Format Supplied By Date Picker

Apr 24, 2012

I have a table of data (total 142 rows). Column contains dates, in the format dd-mmm-yyyy.

I tried to filter using DATE FILTERS->EQUALS and in the custom filter window, I chose EQUALS then picked a date from the date picker icon. The date I picked was 5/4/2009 (this is May 4, 2009, formatted automaticall by excel as m/d/yyyy).

When I clicked OK, nothing showed up despite the fact that there are 6 occurences of May 4, 2009 (formatted as dd-mmm-yyyy in the data table)

So my questions are:

1. Is this due to the formatting?

2. Is there a way to change the date format supplied by the date picker?

Excel 2003 :: Date Formula For If Given Date Is Before Or After Today Or If Nothing Entered

Jan 17, 2013

Cell B1 contains a date, then B2 contains a formula that says:

=IF(A1>TODAY(),A1,A2)

A1 contains a green tick and A2 contains a red cross.

What I am trying to add is that if B1 contains no date then B2 needs to be blank.

I tried using =IF((A1="",0),(A1>TODAY(),A1,A2) to get it to show a 0 if there was no data but this doesn't work.

That date would always be "today," on the day the quantity = 0, but how do I make the date NOT update to "todays date" on the next day, and the next, etc. It needs to stay as the date that 0 qty was reached.

Join Time & Date & Retain Formatting

Jan 29, 2008

I have written some code which takes data from multiple spreasheets and formats it in a specif way. However one problem I have is getting the right data format. As you will see from the input files the date and time cells are separated into two and the macro is supposed to aggregate these together in one cell with a space in between - but I cannot manage to perfect this !!! The output is in a number format instead. I have attached the input files. The code written so far is as follows - works perfectly apart from date format that comes is in the output file once you run the code.

Dim Obj1 As Object
Dim Obj2 As Object
Dim UserList()
Sub RunMe()
Dim Str1 As String
Dim myPath As String
Dim i As Integer
Set Obj1 = CreateObject("excel.application")
myPath = "C:Test" 'please note you should a "" at the end.
Str1 = Dir(myPath & "*.xls")
Set Obj2 = CreateObject("excel.application")

Obj1.Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Obj1.Workbooks.Open (myPath & Str1)

Prevent Automatic Date Format When Referencing Date Cell

I have been struggling with my Excel 07 Date format. Nearly every time I perform a calculation, enter in a value etc in a spreadsheet my answer is returned as a date. So for example if I enter in a cell: = 5 - 4. I get the answer "1-Jan-1900" instead of 1. I have to manually set the formats to general or number if I want the correct format. The setting seems to be the default one and occurs for all workbooks I open. What can I do to change this.
