I have a dataset where the dates are in the following format:
19970803 = 3rd August 1997 (YYYYMMDD)
My aim is to sort the data into months and into 'turn of the month' periods.
-Is there a way to isolate rows using a search term like "****08**" for all the august entries?
-Likewise if i want data between 27th-3rd for every month is there a way to sort for entries between "******27 - *******03".
I am stuck trying to sort data that looks like the following, into a format that I can use as source data for pivot tables/charts.

I will need to group Data multiple ways. However, I cant work out a good way to sort it. Can I have a suggestion on layout that I will be able to arrange data appropriately.
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?
im looking for a way to sort some data exported from an old stock recording software. the system outputs the data as a .csv file but each item bought is grouped into a particular heading, a line is only generated if money is spent under that particular heading. i cannot make the software generate lines if no money is spent so the number of lines generated each period changes.
period 1 3202 fuel £3000 3203 PPE £250 3204 major units £5000 3205 planned maint £212 3207 unplanned maint £457 period 2 3202 fuel £2500 3203 PPE £120 3204 major units £1000 3208 storage £212 3210 windows £457
if the data was regular i could simply add the totals each month and divide to get the average.
what i am looking for is a way to auto sort the data onto lines by possibly injecting the missing headings with zero as the total spent.
I am trying to convert a long list of dates from text to date (see A) so that I can sort them from newest to oldest. I've tried converting them using differnt formulas (see B:C) but these don't work.
Hello, I have a question about sorting information using dates but using a range. I need this to sort when I enter a date range into the spreadsheet (the blue blocks on the attached spreadsheet). The factors in colum G need to be sorted by month and input into the yellow highlighted area in column B. There may be an easier way of pulling the data from the "Data" sheet but this was the best I could figure out. Overall, January (or any of the months)needs to have the January (or appropriate) factor that fits within the date range that was input but sorted properly based on the months listed in Column A.
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 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.
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.
I have a program that exports the date as 20120621 (4 digit year, 2 digit month, 2 digit day). I have tried =datevalue(cell) but it returns #value!. I have tried =today()-(cell) and it also returns #value!. Is there a formula or something I can do to covert this field to a date?
I have a couple of columns, once edited need to update a table in SQL. This is my code

However it is not taking UK date formats, it is assuming it is an american format, I get conversion of varchar data type to datetime results in an out-of-range value. What should I add to change the format? The format is in UK on the spreadsheet seemingly....
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 have two cells. Cell A1 contains ‘The date is ’ cell B1 is formatted in the date format, 2007-01-24. I need to concatenate these two cells so that on cell C1 I have ‘The date is 2007-01-24’ but whatever I try excel keeps on changing the date to a text value and hence I am left with: ‘The date is ‘This is the date'39141 or this is the date 39141. how to get to the result that I am after?
I've created a group of user forms used for recording jobs and displaying details of jobs and have come up against a problem I think you may be able to help me with.
When the user creates a new record, I've written some code to stamp txtdate text box with the current system date and this information is then copied onto a sheet called Data into a specific column.
This part works fine and as the column is formatted to handle dates it displays fine.
However, when I pull the data back in, it displays the date as the serial number date, not formatted as dd/mm/yy. I've tried every fix I can find to sort this but none of them seem to work.
The idea is that the user selects a job number from combobox1 and then the appropriate column is pulled into each txt box on the form.
At the same time, I'm trying to do the same for the system time as well. Unsurprisingly I have a very similar problem here and use the same code as above. I've tried formatting both date and time txt boxes in the userform, the data transfer code etc etc with no success.
I have the code below working as I want it to, when data is input in column 2 the date and time is automatically input into the corresponding cell 3 columns to the right. I want to ensure that the date is changed to the UK format dd-mmm-yy. I have formatted the column to be in that format but for some reason it has suddenly started changing the date to US format. Can this code be changed to force the date to be in UK format?
I am having trouble with formating a to date. I have ~5,000 lines of data that are formatted as follows: the last 6 digits refer to date. For example, below line should be date 09/24/09. PRIVATEBANK 3.65%09PRIVATE 3.65%09 PRIVATEBK&TR 3.65 092409. I am using the right function to isolate the date. In cell A2:
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

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 have a column showing date DD/MM/YYYY. I want to be able to get a new column stripping out the days so that I can chart changes over a month rather than each day of the last 2 years. I have tried altering the cell format to MM-YYY although this shows the format I want when i run a pivot chart it will still create records for individual days. I then tried copying and pasting the above as text only. This results in the pivot chart sorting A-Z rather than by date.
1. I downloaded from my online bank a Excel statment file. 2. When I open it in Excel. The date order is wrong, it is newest entries first (top). 3. I need it the other way, oldest first. I get Excel to sort oldest to newest. Which it does, but....
When I have more than 1 entry on date, they are the wrong way around.
Example: It should be, 01/06/09 £10 01/06/09 £105 01/06/09 £200.....
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 database of my entire staff with thr date of birth and joining date, in the format "mm/dd/yyyyy".
I want if the date of birth is equal to today()+1, that means if someone is having his b'day on 25may ,and today is 24 may so its cell colour should turn into red.
I know conditional formatting is to be used here. but bit confused with the formula.
I am trying with this =IF(TEXT(C3,"dd-mmmm")=TODAY()+1,true,FALSE), but not working.
means I want if someones b'day is coming , I want to ge t informed earlier.
