I work with dates a lot and I wanted to be able to put in 22302 and have it show as 2/23/02, so I formatted it and it worked great. The next day I went in and did the same thing and after I formated it and typed in 22302 and hit enter it shows me 1/21/61, OK, I got my dashes but where in the world did those numbers come from, I really would love to be able to use this, what am I doing wrong. Please help.
