'Text to Columns'
Hi Folks,
I have a question. When I 'Text to Columns' the string '04/19 07:26 04/19 07:28' (which contains dates in MM/DD format), it converts the date to '1/04/2019'. Is there any way to stop excel from converting the date? Thanks for your help. Doug. |

'Text to Columns'
Hi Doug,
On the third screen of the TextToColumns dialog, the column format may be selected. One option is a datae format and within this option, you can indicate the date format of the data to be converted --- Regards, Norman "Text2Col" wrote in message ... Hi Folks, I have a question.
