    In what way do you want to change the format? The dates in the attachment are in the same format ...

    Re: Date Format Change

    I don't understand what you are asking. Please be clear. The column in the spreadsheet is set to date format.

    Re: Date Format Change

    Well, I'm sorry, but I don't have time to do it for you. All of those cells have the same formatting applied to them. You need to explain clearly what you mean by "it will not serve my purpose", and hopefully someone else will help you out.
