Dates
How do I enter the dates as 'day,date,month,year'?
For instance, enter 01/01/2011 tyhen highlight down to enter full month...but I also want the day.
RE: dates
Hi Elizabeth,
Thank you for your question.
To create a date format that includes the day, date, full month and year, you will need to create a customised date format. To do this:
- Select the date that you want to format, i.e. 01/01/2011
- Right click the cell, selecting 'Format Cells...' from the menu
- With the 'Number' tab open select 'Custom' from the category list
- Place your cursor in the text field below the heading 'Type:' and delete the contents
- Now type: dddd dd mmmm yyyy
* As you type this format the sample view above will display a preview of the date
* You can replace the spaces in the example above with a hyphen (-), forward slash (/) or any other character.
I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.
If you require further assistance, please reply to this post.
Regards,
