Hello,
I would be very much greatful if any one can give me a solution to the
problem. My problem is what is the equation to change the date value (for
example: 39124) to a date ( for example: 11-Feb-07)?

Please don't post the same article multiple times.

This isn't online chat: you need to wait a reasonable time (hours, at
least) to give people time to see your query and answer you.

You could just format the cell with the date format you like.

Or you could use a formula like this in a different cell:
=text(a1,"dd-mmm-yy")

The first suggestion will leave the date in the cell. The second suggestion
will return text that looks like a date.
