when I type a 6 digit date into Excel cells formatted to dd/mm/yyyy very strange dates are being displayed. Tried opening a new book - just the same result. All is ok typing with the / in between but I don't usually have to do that. Regional settings have been checked and formatting etc.
View 3 RepliesI have a 20,000 line Excel sheet...
And all the dates are entered like this:
2009 02 08
I want to add a dash, so they look like this
2009-02-08
so I added a command button, and this code, but its not searching the sheet and adding the dash's...
I have the macro below which opens csv files stored in a user selected folder and processes them changing the date format in column D from DD/MM/YYYY to text stored as YYYY-MM-DD.
For most of the dates the code works without issue, but for some (those with a month <12 possibly) it transposes the MM and DD incorrectly.
I understand that when opening the CSV's in excel it automatically converts the dates to DD/MM/YYYY, so I'm actually opening in wordpad which displays as YYYY-MM-DD, with only a portion being incorrect.
I've attached a couple of sample files (pre and post conversion).
Status_20post.csv‎
Status_20pre.csv‎
creating a user form that will make my job of recording data far easier. However, when the date is entered, it changes it form UK to US.
I've checked the cells and they are formatted for UK dd/mm/yyyy.
The script is as follows:
Private Sub UserForm1_Click()
End Sub
Private Sub DataInput.UserForm_Initialize()
[Code].....
I want to convert to date from DD-MON-YYYY into YYYY-mm-DD format in column J.
It is also applicable to date separated by semicolon. It was working previously but not now.
HTML Code:Â
Sub DATEE()
Dim rng As Range
Dim rngTotal As Range
Dim i As Integer
Set rngTotal = Range("j1:j" & Range("j" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
[code]....
I made one mistake . date conversion should be 2014/03/11 if orignial date is 11-MAR-2014
I finally finished programming the userform that I've been working on for about a week and started to populate the database with info (dates, names, TRUE/FALSE etc etc).
Then all of a sudden I notice that as I switch between "records", one of the dates gets a life of its own - it changes from dd/mm/yyyy to mm/dd/yyyy as I select it. When I jump onto another record and select that previous record again, the format changes from mm/dd/yyyy to dd/mm/yyyy.
This happens with ALL dates where the days and months are =< 12.
I thought I'd apply formatting to the text box to stop that happening with the code below:
I use MS Excel 2007. When I type in date as 2/3/2009, it gets typed as 3/2/2009
i.e. DD/MM/YYYY to MM/DD/YYYY. Attached is file for your information. I have even formatted the Cells in that particular column to Date Format under British (UK) DD/MM/YYYY. I want dates in DD/MM/YYYY format only.
I need to change mm/dd/yyyy to dd/mm/yyyy.
Going to format cells and custom Excel thinks the data is already dd/mm/yyyy.The data I have is historical so the date 1/03/2014 has not happened yet so I need to change it to 3/01/2014.
I have a column currently containing dates in the following format: mm/dd/yyyy
I want to sort these records sequentially from latest to oldest, so I need to convert the data into the following format: yyyy/mm/dd
how to convert this data.
I need to change a whole column of dates shown as “dd.mm.yyyy” to “dd/mm/yyyy”. I know the answer must be quite easy but it’s been bugging me for some time. Even after sorting the cells, it only sorts using the first two digits, totally ignoring the rest. IE, it sorts 01.07.2009 before 15.05.2009, also before 03.02.2008.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet with dates as Mon/day/year ( 05/02/2011- May 2nd )
but the template worksheet which i have been told to use, has all dates as day/mon/year. (so above date should read as 02/05/2011)
When i try to use format painter to convert my mon/day/year to day/mon/year, it doesnot work.
Neither does the trick of using text to date format using technique shown in this board worked ( text to columns, fixed , YMD )
So how do i get my dates changed from mm/dd/yyyy to dd/mm/yyyy?
Is there a way I can set up the worksheet so that in one cell I can type out for example product codes/numbers and by doing the description for the product will come up in another cell. Rather then copy and pasting very the many different product descriptions?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have Excel 2000, recently when I format a cell to display mm/dd/yyyy and enter mm/dd/yy, it is displaying dd/mm/yyyy. Or it starts out correctly and during a future opening of file it displays incorrectly.
View 2 Replies View Related For Each C In Sheets("data").Range("A2", Range("A2").End(xlDown))
With C
If IsDate(.Value) Then
.Offset(0, 3).Value = Format(.Value, "yyyymmdd")
Else
.Offset(0, 3).Value = Right(.text, 4)
End If
End With
Next C
which is supposed to read the cell offset 3 to the right, and then set to either YYYYMMDD or YYYY depenig on the value in the cell. I'm not sure how to specify the first part of this line - .Offset(0, 3).Value = Format(.Value, "yyyymmdd") - it keeps reading the cell in column A, rather than the offset cel.
I have to count the number of hours within a cell which has also dates. Example below.
12/03/2014 04:00
12/03/2014 04:00
13/03/2014 07:00
What is the formula to count the number of hours given the date ranges need to be in the same cell and the dates and hours are likely to change ?

View 14 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to have a macro run as soon as there is text typed into cell A2? Basically, I have a form that needs to be filled out, but somehow, users forget to put their name in the box. So I don't want any information to be able to be typed in until a name is entered.
View 9 Replies View Relatedis it possible to create in Excel something similar to the text box you have when you enter the product key on the text boxes?
like for example, when you need to type 1997 as your id.
when you typed "1" in A1, cursor will automatically move to B1.
when you typed "9" in B1, cursor will automatically move to C1...
and so on..
thus, user that fill in the form does not need to press enter, or right arrow key when inputting their id.
I'm typing the formula straight into the cell and funny thing happens: the cell displays the formula, but not the result...
SO now I can see =A2+B2 and no values.
Is it possible to click on a cell and use the cell info as the input data for a search instead of typing data into a cell for a vlookup?
For example, I have a spreadsheet with numbers corresponding to stock codes. Would it be posible to just click on the stock number to return the information on the stock (levels, sizes etc...) instead of typing the stock code in for a vlookup calculation.
I have written code in which cell color changes according to cell value. To change cell value I have used drop down list (Data/Validation/List). Main question/problem is code works well when cell value is changed by typing from keyboard only.
Code doesn't work when cell value is changed using drop down list.
Attached is the test file : Test_26082013.xls

When I type numbers in the cells from D4 to D14, E4 to E14 and so on, the particular cell should turn into "Green". All the the cells will remain "yellow" and blank until numbers are entered based on the daily cleaning of machines. When particular machine no is entered in to a cell cell, that cell should turn green(this shows that "service is done for that machine")
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've built (but not completed) a spreadsheet used to organize multiple Bill of Material lists. This list is a row-by row list of products with information relating to a specific part number including: Mfg, Part#, Qty Used, Cost Ea, Vendor, among many more.
Here's what I'm trying to accomplish first. As this list grows, my intension is the be able to recall a row of data (or control what columns of the row are recalled) from this list and be able to easily add them to the list. I would like to be able to do this by typing in data in one cell in the row (like the Part#), and then have a macro or VB code that will automatically fill in a defined number of columns with the descriptive data like: Mfg, Cost Ea, Vendor, etc.
Currently, the data for the rows (if it already exists) would reside higher up in the list on the same worksheet but could also potentially be on another tab in the workbook.
I am creating a spreadsheet that when I type the product series in cell A1, it will automatically know to enter the corresponding catalog # into cell B1. I will be doing this for hundreds of product series.
For Example:
If I type AEP into cell A1, the worksheet will automatically enter #123 into cell B1,
If I type DEB into cell A2, the worksheet will automatically enter #458 into cell B2,
and so on...
I understand that I will have to create a master list with what series goes with each catalog #, but I am not to sure where to go from there?
Well following on from my question earlier, I am still playing with my timesheet/rota I'm developing.
I have a start time and an end time, which is formatted as hh:mm then an hours cell which adds them up for you.
BUT if someone is on a rest day or a holiday day or a sick day etc, I would like them to be able to type that in without the cell that adds the hours up going doo laly!!!!! (######)
So, is there anyway they can type say 'R' and then getting the hours total cell to ignore it because it isn't a time?

On a sheet of my workbook, I need to allow typing but not pasting. I'm using Workbook, because I'd just as soon not allow pasting anywhere.
If the data is copied from within Excel, this seems to work:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub
but if the data is copied from somewhere outside of Excel, it pastes it anyway.
