i have a sheet where in some cells the date are in ddmmyy format along with
text & in some cells mmddyy format along with text.
is there any command to change all in mmddyy format
You need to describe more precisely exactly what is in the cells, and how one
can tell the difference between a date that is in mmddyy format and a date that
is in ddmmyy format.
For example, if the cell contains 080505, how do we now whether this represents
8-May-2005 or 5-Aug-2005? (If you are going to automate this process, there
needs to be some kind of rule for the conversion).
Also, when you say there is the date along with text, what exactly is the
contents of the cell. i.e. what is in the formula bar? what does the cell
show if formatted as General?
I doubt the above can be done solely with a "command". However, there may be a
combination of command and formulas, or formulas alone, or a VBA routine, that
can accomplish your goals.
