Converting MM/DD/YYYY into just MM/DD and Sorting
I have several thousand dates that I imported into and excel sheet and need
to sort it by MM/DD only. The years are all different. I tried to format the cells in the column by MM/DD and then sort, but it is still sorting by MM/DD/YYYY. How do format the cells to drop the YYYY and only leave the MM/DD without going into each cell and deleting the YYYY from each cell?
