Convertir fecha en cadena de testoo a numero

[a7024782]

Saludos amigos, he obtenido de una pagina web cierta información, pero la referente a la fecha se ha copiado en formato de texto así: Dec 31, 2021 y necesito reexpresarla al formato de Excel de fecha corta: 31/12/2021. Hay alguna forma de hacerlo? Gracias de antemano

Go to the desired cell or mark the desired area,

Right mousekey,

Format cells ...

Category: Custom select,

Type: DD.MMMM YYYY for December 21, 2021

or DD / MM / YY for 21/12/21.

OK...you are ready :)

Hope I was able to help you with this info.

Thanks. It is not the solution I am looking for. That case works when the cell has a number as the date and you just have to change the format. In my case, the date is a text string and not a number.

Convert dates stored as text to dates

Follow these steps:

Select a blank cell and verify that its number format is General.

In the blank cell:

Enter =DATEVALUE(

Click the cell that contains the text-formatted date that you want to convert.

Enter )

Thank you for your understanding and patience
