I dont know why in some computers excel stores date in mm/dd/yyyy and in some as dd/mm/yyyy
BUT You can convert the same to any format without using any formula or a macro. Just select the column containing the data (Date. in whatever format! like 1.13.2009, or 13-1-2009, or 13/1\2009) Go to DATA>>TEXT TO COLUMNS Select "Delimited" option button >>Next>> Do NOT select any delimiter >>Next>> In the column data format, select "Date" and then select the format in which the data is stored. eg. DDMMYY or MMDDYY etc >>FINISH>> Now your data is in date format On Sep 21, 12:05 pm, ashish koul <koul.ash...@gmail.com> wrote: > 8/3/2009 8/3/2009 8/3/2009 8/4/2009 8/4/2009 8/4/2009 5/8/2009 5/8/2009 > 5/8/2009 5/8/2009 5/8/2009 5/8/2009 > THEY ARE IN DD MM YYYY > > I WANT TO CONVERT THEM INTO > > MM DD YYYY > > regards > > ashish --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some important links for excel users: 1.
