Excel Dates

G

Genesis

I have a series of rows with a number of columns. Each row has a different
day within the same month in one of the columns. Activity Data goes into the
second column. When I enter the date I must enter the day and the month to
assure the row reads 22 July. If I just enter 22 the cell defaults to
January. Is there a way to have the cell default to the current month without
having to enter the month as well as day?

Excel has no way of knowing that 22 is July 22.

Suggest you enter as 7/22 which is only a couple of keystrokes extra assuming
you want the current year as default.
