Format date quickly/specifically

Lots of difficulty trying to truncate/format a date column.

How do I take (sample): 2014-01-06 08:54:14.884000

And truncate it to 01/06/14 08:54:14

If I need to make compromises to make any truncation possible, I’m open to ideas.

Hi Palpenstein

A possible format for what you want is: DD/MM/YY HH:MM:SS

Here is how to do it:

  1. (Select the cell(s) containing the dates that you wish to format)
  1. (menu):FormatCells... (Ctrl+1)
  2. Number (tab)→Date
  3. Place your code in Format code
