Date question

Stuart · Jul 16, 2004

Have
..Range("I2").Value = Format(Date, "dddd dd mmm yyyy")

Cannot find how to change this to give the full value for the
month, rather than a truncated version.

How is this done, please?

Regards.

Hi Stuart,

Just add a fourth "m" to the month string.

To display the full month, use 4 'm': dd ddd mmmm yyyy

Are you sure that you want to set text in the cell?
You'll lose some flexibility
as an alternative

With Range("I2")
.Value = Date
.NumberFormat = "dd mmmm yyyy"
End With
