I'm running excel 2000 and don't have access to mscal.ocx, so i have used the date time picker with a calendar, but the formatting of the calendar is in US format m/d/yy and I need it in UK format d/m/yy, I have narrowed it down the following piece of code, the D values are the days,

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 worksheet where in a column, dates are stored in various date format i.e. it may be DMY or MDY or YMD.

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 need for my office a table which has one column with dates. The "issue" is, that sometimes I know the whole date (day, month, year), sometimes only the month and year and occasionally just the year. Is there a way through custom number formatting that excel behaves correctly? How would I need to set conditions to achieve this? Because now something happens which is 99% incorrect .
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have data sent to me with different date formats on the same spreadsheet; I used Format - Cell and format date to this format: yyyy.mm.dd. However, only some of the data changed to this format and rest remain the same. I've tried many other ways, but didn't work.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a userform which allows data to be entered onto a worksheet. One of the fields (a textbox with the standard calendar control) is the date. When the transaction saves, it correctly saves the date as dd/mm/yyyy using
ActiveCell.Value = TxtDate.Text
I also have a form which allows the user to amend a transaction by loading the data onto the form, amend it and save it back to the worksheet.
The problem is that when it picks up the data and re-saves it, it's resaved in the format mm/dd/yyyy which is a problem because I use the month as one of the categories that users can filter the data by.
I also have the following line immediately after each time the data is saved from the form to the worksheet:
Selection.NumberFormat = "dd/mm/yyyy;@"
I have a simple piece of code that gets a date from the user via inputbox in the format dd/mm/yyyy. That date is then put into a cell (e.g. B1), and the cells to its right get given something like "=B1+2", "=C1+5" etc so that they will all show a date a few days further down the track. (Much more complicated than that but this is the basic idea)
The entire row is then formatted "ddd dd mmm yyyy" with the intention of every column getting a header like "Wed 27 Jan 2010". This works perfectly for every column EXCEPT B which shows the the string "27/01/2010" it was given from the inputbox.
Right clicking --> Format Cells shows every cell in the row has the exact same 'Custom' format, and the 'Sample' at the top looks correct for every cell except B1.
BEFORE the macro runs and formats all the cells, but AFTER they have been given their formulas, they all display something along the lines of '40021', '40023' which I assume is the number of days since Jan 01 1900 or the like - proving that THEY knew the value in B1 was a date, so why doesnt B1 itself know?
I have a userfiorm with a text box that auto fills as follows
PHP Code:
Fill Datebox DateBox.Value = Format(Date, "dd/mm/yyyy")
which today fills the text box as 01/03/2012 (UK format), however when i try log a record as follows
PHP Code:
copy the data to the databasews.Cells(iRow, 1).Value = Me.DateBox.Value
it changes the date to the american format so that it is pulling through on the data base as today being the 3rd Jan 2012.
I am importing data (using filestream) from txt files with comma delimited values. When I import dates into General type cells it turns a date of dd/mm/yyyy into mm/dd/yyyy only if the date makes sense.
I would like it to import dd/mm/yyyy as dd/mm/yyyy.
I am also interested to know how Excel/VBA deals with dates coming from various sources, what quirks or mode of thought it follows.
I need to amend that column to display 26 Mar ( or 12 Dec or 17 Apr etc depending on value).
Try as I might, using format cells, nothing results in the required display. I'm not even sure what format the cells were in as received, since highlighting the received column and selecting "format cells" does not reveal the initial formatting. If I try pasting special to a new column and selecting values, I just get the numerical date value as a 5digit number.
I've attached a small sample of an excel file I created from a CSV. The date has defaulted to American format and the time is, as you can see, messy. How can I reformat so that I can have British date format and 24 hour clock?

I need to change the date format in a cell which also contains text.
The full formula is as follows:-
="Report period:
"&TEXT(Control!B9,"dd mmmm yyyy")&" - "&TEXT(Control!B10,"dd mmmm yyyy")
This gives me the following:-
Report period:
01 October 2012 - 30 September 2013
What I would like to have is the following:-
Report period:
1st October 2012 - 30th september 2013
It's only a minor change but I think it looks better. Without a hideously complicated formula, if this is possible using one of the standard cell formats?
An in-house server spits out a whole lot of dates which I put into Excel and then use the dates for analysis (VBA code). The problem is that Excel is getting confused about the date formats. Sometimes the dates are formatted as dd/mm/yyyy and then the next line can randomly be mm/dd/yyyy. This totally messes up all changes of having data integrity.

I'm new to VBA so my i'm having alot of problems figuring out simple stuff.
Below is my script and when i run it, the dates turns out incorrect.
I noticed this only happens to dates that are before 13th of each month.
Example,
1st May 2008 ( 01/05/2008)
will turn up as
5th Jan 2008 ( 05/01/2008)
However when i manually open the file Todays trades.csv
The date looks just fine.
Is there some problem with using VBA to call up the file?

How can i search for various forms of dates and return them into a cell?
I have inherited a spreadsheet that I need to update soon. It takes data that has a date field and creates a pivot table by month. The person who created it completed it thru February. Now I have added data for March and April, but the pivot tables can not find this new data and I suspect it is because of the date formatting (I have done the Change Data Source under PivotTable Options to include all the new data).
The reason I suspect the date format is that she built a button to run a macro named "dateformat", which is not in the workbook. I have tired to manually format the date using the format painter from the February dates that the pibvot table recognizes, but I still get no results.
I have two columns containing dates (Date1 and Date2). Date1 is like a long date and Date 2 is a short date. I need a macro to compare these two dates and delete rows where Date1 <> Date2. Please find attached the before and after file which also contains the date formats for these two dates.
View 8 Replies View RelatedThis error occcurs when i add some worksheets to a workbook from another
one. I am not completely sure (cos this is not my work actually) but it
seems to me that there is not really too much (about 4000?) "different" cell
formats in the workbook, but there is a quite lot amount of drawing objects
(grouped technical drwaings plus autocad objects which i also converted them

I also dont understand the restriction:
If i have 3999 cells formatted "bold" and another 2 formatted "underlined"
this should not count 4001. True?

I have a spreadsheet with a number of columns. In column D there are the following options: 2,3,4,C,T. I want to color the cell if there is data in the cell and column D contains a value.
So for cell L17, my conditional format I have =AND(D17=2,L17<>"") - - (RED), =AND(D17=3,L17<>"") - - (YELLOW), =AND(D17=4,L17<>"") - - (GREEN).

I have a sheet that shows sun, mon, tue........,sat - all 7 days.
Under each day there are 3 cols so 21 in total.
Data is being entered into cells each day but as the week goes on it gets more difficult to match up the col & row, to many numbers.
What I would like is a way to highlight the whole range of cells per day in a different colour but only when data has been entered under a day, so if no data then no colour fill.
I only need 2 colours, 1 for sun, tue, thurs, sat &
1 for the remaining days.
=COUNTA($A1:$C20)>0
This works for one range as a conditional format but there aren't enough options to do the 7 days.
how to combine 2 conditional formats?
I'm trying to shade every other row grey so its readable with this:

I need to create a custom number format for a recorded delivery number in an excel sheet.

I'm trying to put cemetery records in a simple, sortable table, names and dates. The problem is that for some entries I have a full date of birth, death, or burial (e.g. 5/12/1892) and for others only a year (e.g. 1892). Is it possible to sort these? All I can get is the just years in order then the full dates at the end. My data look sort of like this:
Smith John 1892 1/1/1940 2/2/1892
Johnson Sarah 3/12/1900 1880 3/10/1900
One thing I don't know is what number format to use (text, long date, short date....) Sometimes the date I type changes after I type it (like 1892 became March 6, 1905) and sometimes it doesn't even though the cell is the same format.
I would like to condition one cell to display various colors, based on the information in another cell. I have attached the file for an example. The cell to be conditioned is A1, and the cell that will specify its color is B3. For example, if the value of B3 is "Red Oak", A1 would be red, and if the value is "Maple", A1 would be green.
I have more than 3 of these that need to be formatted (conditional formatting limits to 3 formats), so I'm wondering if I can do an event macro to set the formatting.
