I have a file that in the date it gives me: 4/1/20162, 5/1/20163...

I have used every date format imaginable. Copy and Pasted values of new dates, cleared all including formats...and nothing fixes this???

Any ideas?
 

Excel Facts

Wildcard in VLOOKUP
Use =VLOOKUP("Apple*" to find apple, Apple, or applesauce
how about just trim the last no at the end, e.g.

=LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-1)

Thanks, it was converted to a weird text format when I made the sheet into a table. Dates were in t he header row. Nothing would fix it until I removed the table, re-entered the dates and the did copy paste values...
