Excel Formatting and sorting dates
Last answer on Apr 28, 2009 8:46:17 am BST blackdog11, on Apr 27, 2009 6:54:17 am BSTHello,
Problem....
I'm entering dates into Excel. I need these dates date in the format "ddmmyyyy" with leading zeroes where the day is < 10 e.g. Fifth of August 2009 will display as "05082009"
When I type the string "05082009", it changes it to "5082009"
If I format the cell as a custom format of "00000000" to attempt this, I lose the date format and the columns sort as strings, not dates.
...I hope you'll help me
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0
