Can someone help?
I need to format a date in column 'B' as mm/dd/yyyy. Currently April 9 2015 is displayed as 040915 but I need it to be displayed as 4/9/2015. The formula in column 'B' is
=IFERROR(IF(DATE(2000+RIGHT(RIGHT(L2,6),2),LEFT(RIGHT(L2,6),2),MID(RIGHT(L2,6),3,2)),RIGHT(L2,6),""),"")
this formula pulls last six digits from a text & number string in column 'L'. the sample data and a screenshot are attached below.
I tried to embed DATEVALUE function in the formula in this column but Excel doesn't recognize this as a date and returns #VALUE error. I also tried to format the values as a dates but nothing works.
