Important
- Date formats in variables are specified using English words and letters.
- When pasting a date variable with formatting in an Excel spreadsheet, formatting is applied. If there's no formatting for the variable, the formatting set for the cell will be used. Cells where formatting is pasted will be changed to date type.
