MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / July 2006testing a cell for a date value
Hi, Is there a way I can test the contents of a cell to see if it is a date? Thanks. Hi! You can use this: =ISNUMBER(A1) Dates are really just formatted numbers. So, a cell that contains a number will also evaluate the same as a date entry: 7/15/2006 10 Using ISNUMBER, both will evaluate to TRUE. (provided that the DATE entry is a real Excal date and not TEXT) Biff > Hi, > > Is there a way I can test the contents of a cell to see if it is a date? > > Thanks. thanks, Biff.
