The options for date format in header/footer is limited to short date
settings in Regional and Language settings.
No difference with older versions..........no format button that I ever
heard of.
To enter a custom formatted date in a header or footer you will need VBA.
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightFooter = Format(Date, "mmmm dd, yyyy")
