Dear all,
I would choose dd/mm/yyyy format first, however, should I standardize all
the date format first before running the macro, or simply use the code from
Paul as,
If IsEmpty(Cells(i, 5)) Then
Cells(i, 5).Value = Cells(i - 1, 5).Value
Else
Cells(i, 5).Value = Cells(i, 5).Value
End If
Or from Rajan,
Sub CopyDate()****
Dim rngDate As Range****
Set rngDate = Selection****
*ActiveCell.Resize(rngDate.Rows.Count, 1).Value = rngDate.Value*
End Sub
Thanks~
