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)

Convert A Text Date Into A Proper Date
Jan 9, 2009I have a column of dates in thie format " January 5 03:09:36 2009" which i need to convert into a proper excel date that i can do further calculations on (adding up things, graphs etc based on dates).
Note the space before the month name. I thought about doing a left(cell,xx) to get it but that isnt going to work with the space infront and the variable length of month names.
I do not necessarily need the time included, it may be useful at some point if its easy to keep it as part of the data, if not i can live without it.
Convert Date As Text To Actual Date
Jan 22, 2009I've been sent a spreadsheet in which one column represents dates, but they have been entered as plain text, MM/DD/YYYY (ie 12/31/2008). I ultimately need to import this as a CSV into a program that only understands dates in the format DD/MM/YYYY.
I'd ideally like excel to recognise this field as containing dates, but I can't figure out how to do that, or even how to swap the days and months around as text. I'm using 2007.

Convert Text Comments To Date In VBA
Nov 8, 2012I have a situation where textual comments are entered into a cell where the comments are supposed to begin with a date in mm/dd format. Some enter all 5 characters but some enter m / d in if appropriate to the date, e.g., 9/6 vs 09/06.
I'm trying to take the left 5 characters and compare that to the current date - 7 to ID aged comments and highlight that cell. I currently do this by populating a variable LastUpdate (dim as string) with the first 5 characters, then run this IF statement.
If LastUpdate < Date - 7 Then
Range("O" & i).Select
Selection = "Comments over 7 days old."
End If
This works find except in situations where there is a zero for the first character after the "/", such as "11/05." The code doesn't properly calculate the date and assumes it's old. "11/5" works just fine. I thought I could try translating the variable into a proper date. I "borrowed" this formula from another post herein: =DATE(2012, MID(N12,1,FIND("/",N12)-1), MID(N12,FIND("/",N12)+1,2)). This works fine as a formula to translate the characters into a date but I don't know how to do this same thing in vba.

Convert Date Format To Text
Nov 13, 2006I am trying to make a very simple macro but get stuck in de Excel date format. When using the date "=TODAY()" in one cel it is no problem but I want to integrate it in the CONCATENATE function.
I want to create this text "(WG 01-01-2006)" but then with the actual date of that day of course, which can be inserted in de active cell.
Whatever I do, copy, pastespecial, reed text with RIGHT, change format on an temporary cell etc. Excel keeps returning the number in Excel date format counting from 01-01-1900. Nice for calculating but I want the date text!

View 2 Replies View RelatedConvert Long Date And Time Text To Value
Oct 4, 2013I have a long date and time text value in a cell such as "2013/10/02 07:43:39.39", where the fractions of a second are very important.
I can use cdate([text]) to convert the text string to a value, but only if i omit the seconds fraction: "2013/10/02 07:43:39".
Otherwise i get a type mismatch error.
Is there any way i can get the whole date/time string converted to a date value? The only way i can think to do it it at the moment is to convert the date/time, then divide the seconds fraction by 86400 and add the 2 values. Is there a better way?
Secondly, i have a large number of these date strings, typically >30k lines x 7 columns. Each string is preceded and trailed by a [space] character.
I can strip these extra spaces no problem. And, i can "loop" to perform it, again no problem. But it's going to take time to perform and i'd rather not if i can avoid it.

Convert Text Entries To Valid Date Format
Jan 23, 2010Please refer to attached spreadsheet
I receive data from an external source and it displays what appears to be dates in column B.
In column G I apply a formula to display month/year info.
It turns out that some of the data in column B is valid date data, but other data imports as plain text and therefore I can't get the month/year info that I require.
I have attached just a small example.
I get this data monthly and it usually covers thousands of rows and therefore impractical to change manually.

View 2 Replies View RelatedConvert Human-readable Text Strings Into Consistent Number Of Weeks From Today Date?
Dec 17, 2011Is it possible to do the following with a formula in Excel...
I have a list of users with the dates they first logged into a system and the date they last logged in. I'm trying to group them together into segments so I can analyse them using a Pivot table and chart to see how often different groups are using the system, e.g. New customers in December, November, October, etc.
The trouble I am having is trying to convert the different human-readable text strings into a consistent number of weeks from today's date, e.g.
USER FIRST LOGGED IN LAST LOGGED IN
user 1 2 years 20 weeks 54 sec ago
user 2 44 min 7 sec 1 min 37 sec ago
