    Userform displays in (MM/DD/YYY) format, when spreadsheet stores as (DD/MM/YYYY) format

    Hi,

    I have a UserForm which displays the dates in my spreadsheet in the (MM/DD/YYYY) format. The dates are stored in my spreadsheet as (DD/MM/YYYY).

    I want my UserForm to display the dates in the (DD/MM/YYY) format.

    Below is my code, everything else works correctly. Can anyone suggest a fix?

    Text Box 7, 16, 17, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 41, 42 are those with dates in them.

    Hi,

    Please upload the workbook so that we can see the request in context.
    In addition have you considered simplifying that code with a loop that processes from 1-43?

    Hi, here is a condensed version of my Userform/spreadsheet.

    As you can see, the date is displayed as 08/01/1987, but in the UserForm it is displayed as 01/08/1987, how can i display it as 08/01/1987 in the UserForm?

    Thanks

    Hi,
    In the ComboBox1_Change event change TextBox7 to

    TextBox7 = Format(MyRange.Find(ComboBox1).Offset(0, 8), "dd/mm/yyyy")

    Hello David

    You might like to consider simplifying this. As I intimated a loop would be better used to populate your text boxes
    I alos see that every time you populate them you are calling the Function MyRange. Which means that you are calling it 43 times. Which is rather a waste of time and resources.

    Just create an Excel dynamic range name called 'MyRange'
    =OFFSET(Plan!$A$2,0,0,COUNTA(Plan!$A:$A),1)

    Create a Public Variable in the VBA
