Convert text date string to date in Excel -
this question has answer here:
i have spreadsheet full of data dates , times in cells, they're formatted text , can't reformat them dates (at least not without double-clicking on each cell reason).
the text strings this:
10/1/2015 4:32:16 pm
any idea how regular date format without time? ideal format mm/dd/yyyy. i've tried extracting text =date(left(f3,9)) or similar.
you should select whole date column, go data
tab ==> text columns
, choose delimited type , press next until final step. select date
formatting , click finish. replace every input text date, without need of double clicking on each entry.
after can select cells, go format cells , choose date formatting want.
