Hi, i need to solution urgently.I got some excel files. I need to export the files to database one by one. i am using MySQL database. But in those excel files, the date is in the format of MM/DD/YYYY . but MySQL does not allow this format to export. It supports YYYY-MM-DD format. How can i export the date. There is lot of different sample dates, so that its take more time to change manually. is there any solution for this. Thanks in advance. Any answer can be kindly accepted.

You can select multiple cells and apply the same format to all of them. Say if all the dates are in one column you can click the column header to select the whole column or just use your mouse to dragselect the ones in the column.

If all the dates aren't in one column/row could you try to 'Sort' that data so that it is.

Hope that helps =]
