I cannot find a way to format my dates like this: (March 05, 2005) for example. I have seen short date and long date but neither of them match what I need. Can someone explain to me how to format it so make it look like that. Do I have to create a custom mask or something??? PLease HELP! Thank You
 

Excel Facts

Difference between two dates
Secret function! Use =DATEDIF(A2,B2,"Y")&" years"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"YM")&" months"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"MD")&" days"
In the ControlSource of your text box, put:

=Format([YourDateField],"mmm dd, yyyy")

OR:

On the Format tab of the properties window, type mmm dd, yyyy for the Format Property.
