Hi All!

My issue is that I have to put dates in dd/mm/yyyy formats in Excel worksheets as per Govt Requirements. When those sheets are imported in a Java Utility (prepared by Govt Agency & compulsory), the dates are being shown as dd/mm/yy. As a result error message is displayed. Then I have to manually edit dates in dd/mm/yyyy in the Java Utility. Is there a solution to my problem?

Thanks & Regards.

When you select an imported date cell in Excel, what is the date format you see in the formula bar (not as seen in the cell)?
