Re: Excel and dates

["Bill Meecham" <bmeecham@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Marie,

Mark's spread sheet is very very close but has some trouble with Y2K0-9.  If
you format the input fields as a text value (the B column) and plug these
formulas in the C column they'll work for this century.

=IF(LEN(B2)=6,MID(B2,3,2)&"/"&MID(B2,5,2)&"/"&MID(B2,1,2)," ")
=IF(LEN(B3=8),MID(B3,5,2)&"/"&MID(B3,7,2)&"/"&MID(B3,1,4)," ")
=IF(LEN(B4=8),MID(B4,5,2)&"/"&MID(B4,7,2)&"/"&MID(B4,1,4)," ")
=IF(LEN(B5=6), IF(MID(B5,1,2)<="40",MID(B5,3,2) & "/" & MID(B5,5,2) & "/20"
& MID(B5,1,2),MID(B5,3,2) & "/" & MID(B5,5,2) & "/19" & MID(B5,1,2)),"")


Couldn't have done it without your input Mark!

Bill
