Good afternoon All,

In B2 I am trying to only covert B3 into only a date.

I thought I had done this with =LEFT(B3,10). However, this the then does not accept the format (as I am trying to MATCH with another sheet (using 17/05/2024), Unless I paste value and hit return it does not match it.

Any Ideas please

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
How about
Excel Formula:
=--LEFT(B3,10)
