Date Format
I have a spreadsheet with several hundred dates in
diffferect cells. The dates are typed in as "01/01/2003" but show up in the spreadsheet as a five digit number. The cell format is date and is not locked or protected. How do I get them to show up as they are typed in? Thanks! |

Excel carrys the date as a number, to see it as a date
format the cell(s) as dates. Select the column with the dates, use the format menu at the top of the screen, select the cells option and the date cateory.
