SkipVought That is what I thought too but even changing the format to YYYY/MM/DD did not resolve it. As it turns out there is a hidden apostrophe at the beginning of that data. So that is why I am opting for a macro to strip it out. Andrzejek Thankfully this only occurs on one company's csv...

I have someone with a sony vaio PCV-RS221 computer and they cannot access the recovery partition and they don't have a recovery dvd. Can anyone tell me where I can get a copy of the recovery dvd?
