Hi
I have imported a file where there is a field that is suposed to contain a
date. It was transformed in text, like 22FEB2010. I need to treat this field
as date. How can i transform it in a date format?
Tks

Click to expand...

Copy a blank cell. Select your "dates". Edit / Paste Special / Values / Add /
OK. Result will be a 5 digit number. Select date format as desired.
