I have many rows with dates I want to add a semicolon to. I do not want to type in each one, so I looking for a formula or something that will do this automatically.
I've tried formula, =A1&";" but this changes the format.

I have a long list of dates that are fomatted as 3-12-13 that I want to format under custom date as d-mmm-yy : 12-Mar-13. I tried to do this but it does not change. I tried to change it to a number and that didn't work either.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have data in these two formats 7/13/2014 9:24:14 AM and 07/12/2014 13:02. I want them in Am - PM style. I tried date , there is no format which suits my requirement. The first format in excel is general and other is custom under dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm . I have 23k rows, which I cannot afford to change manually.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've got dates and times in the format of a text string. each string is always formatted in the exact same way to identify the data and time. As such:
Wed Aug 12 16:39:52 BST 2009
Mon Aug 10 14:39:03 BST 2009
Sat Aug 08 18:01:34 BST 2009
And I want to change them to a date formate that excel can understand, so i can search by month, or by date range. The main crux of the question is how to change that string into a excel understandable date though.
If you want to know, this is for my mobile phone bill. I have excel set up to give me a summery of how many texts I've sent, minuets I've used/have remaining. but i want to filter them by month, so I can see how my usage changes.
FYI I put up this question on another forum, however I'm asking it again here b/c I'm not really getting an informative answer there and this project is due soon.

I'm working on a file right now where dates are in the format "06/01/09" meaning 6 Jan 2009. Or more specifically thats what the data is supposed to mean, however when I change it to word form it appears as June 1 2009. This means dates such as "27/01/09" dont get translated.
How can I fix this? I've tried changing the date format, and I've changed the global settings, yet this isnt working.
In case its relevant, before I pasted this data into the current spreadsheet my global settings were set at month day year, which is what I prefer. But the rest of the office works on DMY so I'm switching to that.
When I tried to import data in a CSV file, I ran into a couple of issues when trying to change the date format from MM/DD/YYY to other date format. I've already tried a couple things to no avail:
1. Use text to column functions and change the format from text to MMDDY
2. Use format cell function and change the date format
3. Use the text function (text(Cell,"MM-YY"))
Interestingly when I click on the cell and put my cursor and press backspace, the format will change. It seems like there's an extra space, but using the trim function does not work. I can't do this to thousands of data manually.
I have a list with several thousand dates listed like:
19931014
19900724
19910701
19911209
That is, yyyymmdd.
I would like to list it as yymm only. Is there a way to convert it in Excel? I have for a long time been copying and pasting in to Word then doing a search and replace of the first and last two digits, which results in the yymm format I am looking for. A better way would be nice.
I would need a macro what would change this format (15 Jun 2009) in cell B2 to 2009.06.15.

The TR!A11 is the date. Is there code to put in front of it to make it format as a date??
in the date fields excel only recognises some of them as date, so when I try to change the format of dates (mm/dd/yyyy to dd/mm/yyyy) it only changes some of them so I end up with some wrong dates.how I can make excel read them all as date?
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo I'm just a lowly intern who has been given the task of changing date formats in a bunch of spreadsheets. The string is as follows:
1015 Dixon Schwabl Est. for Creative Svcs 101207.pdf
I have to change the date at the end (mmddyy) so it reads as yyyymmdd. There is a long column of these strings, and i have to do it on over 300 spreadsheeys.
I have a userform which is used to update a spreadsheet.
There are 7 textboxes which add dates to the spreadsheet. These dates are then used in formulas.
Every time a record is saved the date format changes.
Ths means that if the date is entered dd/mm/yyyy it writes mm/dd/yyyy and this is fine. When this record is next retrieved it will show mm/dd/yyyy and any new date will be dd/mm/yyyy.
Wen saved to the spreadsheet both formats change meaning the dates in the spreadsheet appear in diffrent formats messing up all formulas.
How can I stop the date format changing each time the record is saved?
When I remove "Release date:" from "Release date:24 December 2008," excel will automatically change the text to "24-Dec-08." Yes, I did try to format the column to "text" before using find and replace.
This wouldn't be a problem, except that half the dates are in Dutch, so only half the dates are changed, which means that I can't make all date formats in a column uniform.
In order to export an excel table into another program I first need to save the excel file as .txt. The .txt file can then be imported by the other program.
First I however need to make excel understand that the value should be a text and not a value. I therefore format the number as text (0000150235) by adding "0000150235". After saving the file as .txt the format changes from "0000150235" to """0000150235""". I do however need the format in the .txt file to be "0000150235". Can anyone tell me how I can save "0000150235" as .txt and get the value "0000150235" in the .txt file.
I need in changing the format of sheet2 to exactly like the following image below.
*there are some codes in sheet2 which I think is the place to change the format.
I open a txt file in Excel and when I have filter and modify the data I save it to csv-format.
The file include a Header with information from A-AL. I have information in the first 17 columns, A-Q and the rest of the columns are emty, R-AL.
The thing is when I look at my saved csv file my semicolon stops after row 15?! The semicolon represent each empty column from R-AL so I want this on all of hte rows.
tell me how to separate one column into 2 if there is ; in between.

I want to distract all the semicolons into new rows with the same values as they had when they were still in the semicolon cell.
I have two lists of over 10,000 text messages each. Each text is in the first cell of the column, with a few random rows being skipped here and there. Within each cell is a lot of information. The information is divided by semicolons, though. So, it's something like. 123;ContactName;+123456790;Date Time;Message
I have two files like this, one incoming and one outgoing. I need a way to not only split the text into different cells (each piece in a separete column), but splice the two files together. I realize if I could section the text into the parts, I could just sort it, but I figured it's better to tell more than less, for the sake there might be an even simpler way of doing it.
I have a data in Coloumn "A":
12345678910
I need to Convert the Data in B1 Like

the No of Columns may increase, but i should get a data till where the data is in Coloumn "A" ends.
I have a 28 or 30 columns excel with categories of products (color, size, price, etc...) and I need to have and extra column that has all the previous categories separated by semicolon ";"
Values could be numbers or words, mostly words
Price | color | size |...etc
50 | green | 24 |...etc
generated new column
50;green;24;... etc
If a column is empty then go to the next column, no zero value or two ";;"
I have 20.000 products, so 20.000 rows
I have a few hundred cells that I would like to combine. Each cell contains a six digit code number. I would like to combine the cells with a semicolon and a space between each code number.
I can do this with the CONCATENATE function but it will take too long.
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?
i have a cell which has a time format. but currently its displaying 2.00907E+13. is it possible that i can convert it into the normal time format? for example B2 in my sample is 20090718170156 which actually means 2009/07/18 17hrs 01min(s) 56Sec(s) and after converting, how can i get the time difference between start time and end time?
View 3 Replies View Relatedmy spreadsheet I have a column(7.65462E+11) it's a upc code.I can format the column to read as a number (value) but when I save it I does not save the number format.It's really interesting that there are some rows that read exactly the same and those rows keep the number formatting.Going nuts.Also when I try to save a date format(2013-mm-dd) It won't save,I've read that it's system default in U.S,is there a way around that ?
