Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
Welcome to the forum.

You need to add a path separator (\ on Windows) to the end of your path variable before using it with Dir and Workbooks.Open
