dates suddenly changed from x/xx/2004 format to number
I set up my excel 2003 for dates to be written 4/25/2004
and instead all I get is serial numbers. I tried to format the cell for the date as above but it only comes out in serial numbers. When I set this spead sheet up it worked fine. The suddenly this changed and the dates went away. I cannot reverse this. any hints. |

As answered by Jim Rech in excel.misc --
Maybe you hit Ctrl-~ by accident and changed to "formulas view"? Hit it again or uncheck Tools, Options, View, Formulas. scheinz wrote: I set up my excel 2003 for dates to be written 4/25/2004 and instead all I get is serial numbers.
