Hello All,

Here is my situation, i'm using excel vba on a spreadsheet. All the values of column K are in mm/dd/yy ie (8/7/19). Now i have made a macro that take information from this sheets and fills a few word documents. My problem is that they now want the documents to display the full calendar date (ie August 7, 2019). How would i go about doing this. So far here is what i have

Code:
NOCdate = NOCws.Cells(Target, "K").Value

Wordapp.ActiveDocument.FormFields("TXCompletionDate").Result = NOCdate

How can i convert the date entered into NOCdate to the format Month Date, Year or August 7, 2019.

Thank you.
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
If it is possible to use a 'helper' column, I'd reformat the date in another column =text(Ref, "Mmmm D, YYYY") and have your macro reference the new column.
Ref = the current date column

If a helper column is not an option, the current column is a formula and adjusting the current column would not impact any other formula, you could use the same formula but
Ref = current formula

Try this.
Code:
Wordapp.ActiveDocument.FormFields("TXCompletionDate").Result = Format(NOCdate, "mmmm dd, yyyy")
