Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).

Your code works fine....
However, the question in the thread was to make the characters in the InputBox appear as Asterisks, so other people couldn't see the password !
Hence the much longer code scripts in the other posts.
