Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Do you have any Text values in column F?

What happens if you click the Debug button?
Which line of code does it highlight?
When you hit debug, hover over the variable "i" in your code to see which row it is choking on, and look at the value in that row of column F.

This is the code it highlights
VBA Code:
  .Value = DateValue(.Value)
It kicks up on row 2

What exactly is in cell F2?

The date and the time so i need the time to go.
19/10/2023 08:14:04
That works just fine for me.
Where is this data coming from? Is it an export or download from another location?
I wonder if it has some extra or special characters in there.

Enter this formula in any blank cell on your sheet, and tell me what it returns:
Excel Formula:
=ISNUMBER(F2)
If it returns false, it means that the entry is NOT a valid date/time entry, but is instead a Text entry.

Yes data is from a program called Intact
Put this
VBA Code:
=ISNUMBER(F2)
in a cell says FALSE

In addition to the formula I asked you to try in my previous post, see what these two formulas return:
Excel Formula:
=LEN(F2)
and
Excel Formula:
=CODE(MID(F2,11,1))

Tell us what these return. They will help us to identify any extra or special characters that may be causing issues.

and

That is impossible!

Up above, you said that you have the following value in cell F2:
Rich (BB code):
19/10/2023 08:14:04

If that is indeed true, there is NO way this formula can return 0:
Excel Formula:
=LEN(F2)

That says there is NOTHING in cell F2.

So what is it that you aren't telling me?
