Thanks Paul, Don’t remember encountering that. However, when I changed the 
destination date, formulas calculated...

Actually, I almost made the same mistake!
What's really happening is that HIS Windows environment is configured to 
display dates as dd/mm/yyyy
so to HIM both date formats look the same.

But since OUR environment settings use mm/dd/yyyy, then
when we open the workbook, all legitimate Excel "dates" (which are really 
numbers displayed in date format)
change to display as our configuration directs it.
But the STRING values remain unchanged.

I guess what I'm saying is that to US, the look like they're in different 
formats,
but to HIM, they may look identical.

The problem is that one is a date string while the other is a number DISPLAYED 
as a date.

So, your reply is probably totally confusing to him!

You may want to reconsider what you are asking for. 
One set dd/mm/yyyy and the other mm/dd/yyyy

Dear group, 

I have written a macro for recording data for customer transaction every hour 
within a day. First I refresh the pivot table and copy the data to another area 
for ease to lookup. However, I found the VBA code i use just paste the date 
with wrong format. This makes me cannot lookup the desire value. Could anyone 
help to improve my code?

*Remarks: Procedure name is "sp"
