    Alberto,

    Are you asking how to format your dates as just a series of numbers?  You do this formatting in Excel.  Highlight the fields (or column) and then right-click, “format cells” and pick the desired way of displaying your dates.  Good luck!

    I suspect he's asking the question I asked last week.

    When exporting from P6 the date appears in Excel as

    '12-12-11' and using replace will not work as it claims it can't find the ' part you want to replace thus rendering it useless for analysis in Excel.
