Okay, so after reading this article here: <a href="http://allenbrowne.com/ser-36.html" rel="nofollow">http://allenbrowne.com/ser-36.html</a> I made some tweaks to the code: <pre><code> Option Explicit ' Developed by Contextures Inc. ' www.contextures.com Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim rngDV As Range Dim oldVal As String Dim newVal As String If Target.Count > 1 Then GoTo exitHandler On Error Resume Next Set rngDV = Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeAllValidation) On Error GoTo exitHandler If rngDV Is Nothing Then GoTo exitHandler If Intersect(Target, rngDV) Is Nothing Then 'do nothing Else Application.EnableEvents = False 'newVal = Target.Value 'amendment newVal = Format(Target.Value, "\ dd\/mm\/yyyy\") Application.Undo 'oldVal = Target.Value 'amendment oldVal = Format(Target.Value, "\ dd\/mm\/yyyy\") Target.Value = newVal If Target.Column > 1 Then 'amendment If oldVal = "" Then 'do nothing Else If newVal = "" Then 'do nothing Else Target.Value = oldVal _ & ", " & newVal End If End If End If End If </code></pre> exitHandler: Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub The important bit appears to be the format: <pre><code>oldVal = Format(Target.Value, "\ dd\/mm\/yyyy\") </code></pre> Allen's suggested code was: <pre><code>Format$(varDate, "\#mm\/dd\/yyyy\#") </code></pre> I changed it to dd/mm and replaced the # with a space, and hey presto - it appears to be working! A very frustrating issue though, which I'll now have to make sure works on other users machines! Thanks to @sous2817 and @GSerg for their comments/suggestions.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
