Re: [Request ID :##263969##] : Date format Inbox

On September 1, 2007 I sent in the following feedback:

Description : In Genealogy, dates are recorded:

Day Mon Year ie... 6 May 1854
The closest you can come to this format on Zoho Sheet is: 6-May-54

With this format, it is difficult to determine if the person was born in 1754 or died in 1854 or is it 1954??

I am recording the contents of an entire cemetery. This date format is pretty critical to finding the Zoho Sheet useful to me.

Can this format be added?

Zoho Sheet Support to me Sep 1

Hi,

Thanks for your request. We will add this format too.

Regards,
Ramesh

New Feedback:

It is now the end of October and I still don't have the date format I need. AND I now have 240 different cemeteries! It may be that the date format 15-8-2006 has been added (I'm not sure) but what I need is:

15 Aug 1856
15 Aug 1956
15 Aug 2006

CAN THIS HAPPEN??

Thanks, Suzie Henderson

PS. The folks over at Microsoft and their Excel Program DO NOT provide this date format. If you can do it for us, Genealogists throughout the world will be singing the praises of Zoho!
