I cant work out why when I enter todays date 05/07/2011 in my my cell it changes to format 07/05/2011. I have checked the cell format and it apears to be
Date: Type *14/03/2001 location is UK.

My regional settings are all UK..

I have many other dates in the same column that are in the UK format..

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
Hi,

It seems any cell I put 05/07/2011 in changes to 07/05/2011.. I do have a code...

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

'Forces all text to UPPER case

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or Target.HasFormula Then Exit Sub



On Error Resume Next

Application.EnableEvents = False

Target = UCase(Target)

Application.EnableEvents = True

On Error GoTo 0



End Sub


regards

That's the culprit. Try:

Rich (BB code):
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
'Forces all text to UPPER case
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
    If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or Target.HasFormula Or IsDate(Target.Value) Then Exit Sub
    On Error Resume Next
    Application.EnableEvents = False
    Target = UCase(Target)
    Application.EnableEvents = True
    On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
