    How do I convert this date please?

    I have extracted some data from a report which contains a date format I am unable to format to UK format e.g. Day, Month & Year

    I've tried data to columns formatting the data as d,m,y
    Also tried formatting it as UK via special text

    I would be much obliged if someone could help please. I've attached a small amount of data in excel form

    This is how it appears in the report. Interestingly, the CRM suppliers can't sort it out

    Hi there,

    Try entering the following formula in Cell B2 and copying it downwards:

    You should then format the formula cells as "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss"


    Hope this helps - please let me know how you get on.

    Regards,

    Greg M
