Hello Friends, Following some additional clues I found to sort this issue & I think will need good macro to solve the problem. Step by step clues :
1) Identify the cells which have year 2000 & same cells should be converted into "mm-yy" TEXT format. 2) Identify the cells which have mm-dd-yy format & same cells should be converted into "dd-mm" TEXT format. 3) Remaining al cells should be remain UNCHANGED. Formula I tried : =IF(D7="","",IF(YEAR(D7)=2000,TEXT(D7,"mm-yy"),TEXT(D7,"dd-mm"))) But this is changing cells which are in correct format. Please review.

I'm using one software which list out required material for structure in excel. Output of that excel file converts some length of "Ft-In" format in "mm-dd-yy or mm-yy" format. Ex: For Length 10-11, excel shows Nov-11 & For length 11-10, excel shows 10/11/11. Somehow I need to keep all length either in text format or in Ft-inch format. I'm not importing file into excel so I can't fix the "text type" for particular column. Manual edition will be tedious as there are more than 75 pages (Each have more than 1000 rows), If anybody can suggest any easy way to save time.
