LONG DATE FORMAT ISNT FORMATING ANYMORE.
- Feb 17, 2022
TAMMYT_A Then you are probably entering text that Excel doesn't recognise as a date. The cells you enter the dates in are perhaps formatted as text. Setting them to Long Data after entry will not be enough. You would have to re-enter the date (select the cell, F2 and press enter).
Or did you recently change some some regional settings? Does the "2.16.22" format agree to your locale? Perhaps you need to enter 2/16/22 or 2-16-22 or 2022-02-16.
