Hi Koen,

Dear readers,

I have a document(csv converted to spreadsheet) with bankstatements. Those
statements have a date in the form of YYYYMMDD (no /'s or -'s). The
problem
is that I can't make libreoffice recognise those numbers as dates. Can
somebody explain how I can make Libreoffice recognise the YYYYMMDD numbers
as dates.

In the csv import dialog is a preview of the data. Click on the column
header of the date column. This enables the 'Column type' drop down list.
There choose 'Date(YMD)'. Now the dates should be recognized as date already
when importing the document.

Kind regards
Regina


Wow, that sounds convenient! I didn't know about that! Sorry for
giving a far too complicated answer, when it could be solved that
easily. On the other hand, learning regular expressions may come handy
in many other situations…


Best regards
