I have the following string in cell A1 as follows "Tuesday, March 01, 2016 5:09 AM". I have tried to format as date but does not work. Is there formula to convert this to a date? Desired result is 3/1/2016.

Hi maacmaac,
Get rid of the Tuesday and then use =DateValue() on the rest of the string.
See the attached for the example.

One test is worth a thousand opinions.

If you cannot get rid of teh day name, and teh format is always like that (name comma date), try this...
=DATEVALUE(MID(A1,FIND(",",A1)+2,99))
1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools

Happy to help and thanks for the rep
Or try this... =--RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(",",A1)-1)
