Hi,
I have inherited a spreadsheet in which has columns for two dates. A year column and a month and day column. The "year" column is simply yyyy so 1721. The "date" column has been written Mar-23, Aug-17, Dec-03 meaning 23rd March 1721, 17th August 1721, December 3rd 1721. Excel returns 01/03/2021 and so on for the "date" column. How can I convert/extract/undo(?) the date formatting so that I can extract the correct day and month from the "Month and day" column?
Any help much appreciated as I have from 1721 to 1981 to sort out!
