Hi everybody.

I am new, this is my first post.

We in Spanish use a form of dates like: Viernes, 5 de Enero de 2018 (is like: Friday, 5 of January of 2018).

In Excel I can use in order to obtain this format the following code: dddd, d "de" mmmm "de" aaaa

But I don't know how to use this code with .NumberFormat, the double quotation is a problem.

Sorry for my English.
 

Excel Facts

Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.
This is an English version of your request.
With number format custom

in the Type area, the Spanish equivalent of

dddd, d "de" mmmm "de" yyyy

Hope this helps

in VBA possibly
.NumberFormat = "dddd, d ""de"" mmmm ""de"" yyyy"

Thank you very much Dave!

Can I ask an additional question?

In my computer friday and january appears all lower case. How can I do in order that only the first letter of the day and month be uppercase (Friday and January).

Your system is quite different from my system; consequently, I cannot help much more.

You could start a new thread indicating Spanish translation and VBA help.

There is an Excel function called Proper. The VBA for the function would be something like

Target.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.Proper(Target.Value)

or possibly the Spanish equivalent of vbProperCase
