Is there any way to convert a Month name to date format? It should be the last day of that month and current year.

Example:

June should be converted to 06/30/2019
July should be converted to 07/31/2019

Excel Facts

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().
First shot (must be something more elegant) with month name in column A, fill this down:

Code:
=DATE(2019,MONTH(DATEVALUE(A1&" 1")),DAY(EOMONTH(DATE(2019,MONTH(DATEVALUE(A1&" 1")),1),0)))

Or, for the future:

Code:
=DATE(YEAR(DATEVALUE(A1&" 1")),MONTH(DATEVALUE(A1&" 1")),DAY(EOMONTH(DATE(YEAR(DATEVALUE(A1&" 1")),MONTH(DATEVALUE(A1&" 1")),1),0)))

That worked! Thank you!

It's a great thing that Rick's here to keep these long-winded lines to a minimum!!! Thanks, Rick, as usual!

He obviously doesn't sleep much as it's VERY LATE in NJ. It's late in CA (for me), so hitting the sheets now.

Sleep? I am not familiar with that term, what is it? :lol: Yes, you are right, I don't sleep much, somewhere between 4 and 5 (usually closer to 4) hours a night.

I see you live in La Jolla, California. I just finished watching a movie and turned on CNN and see there was another, much larger earthquake in Ridgecrest which is about 225 miles from your city, so I am guessing you were not affected by it.

Nope, neither quake had any shaking here. San Diego and the surrounds are not on a fault line so generally we remain in Paradise.
I use to live in NYC (Greenwich Village).
