Good Afternoon,

I am using the VB below to create a date in a userform as dd/mm/yyyy
which is viewing ok on the userform.
The issue is when i submit the form the date is changing to american format in the spreadsheet it is being saved on. As i work for a company is there anyway i can make 100% sure the date is entered in the uk format for reporting information.

Code: 
Today = Format(Now, "dd/mm/yyyy") 'date
Me.txtdate.Value = Today
Me.txtdate.Locked = True


Many Thanks

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.

Thanks for the reply, but i am going to sound thick here. Sorry

The original coded i ran was in the inalisation of the user form.
Would this still run in the same way except i would have to enter Today() in cell A1 so it automatically pics the cells date up.

The original fault wasnt that the date was showing wrong it just seems to change the date after the fact to American when it is saved into a raw data file?

Many thanks

Sorry, the code I posted was to transfer the date from the userform to a worksheet in UK format.
