Date format problems [closed]
In "Calc" I am attempting to format cell for date. I entered the date in format MM-DD-YYYY. I select "Format-Cell-Date-"December 31, 1999"-OK. The information in the cell is still MM-DD-YYYY, no change. I am also trying this with the brush in the tool bar, with no avail. Am I doing something wrong
Once you have created the user defined format,as shown below, you will be able to change the cell to any of the date formats shown. At the moment it considers the cell as text.
