Hi Realpple,
That is because you created a numerical string.
Create a date string by using d, m and y like:
ddVmmVyyyy
I used "V" because "\/" was turned into "/".

Thank you, however I am trying to use a string that when the date is being entered you don't have to put in any dashes or slashes. Is it possible to add 10 days to the date like this? Maybe there is a different way I can format the date? and still do both of these actions?

Hi Realpple,
Consider this workaround:
Format cell A1 as text.
Now use a formula to change this value into a date:
=LEFT(A2,2)& "-" &MIDB(A2,3,2)& "-" & RIGHT(A2,4)
You can place this formula anywhere you want, in the next cell, out of sight, another sheet as long as you refer to the formula cell when adding the 10 days.
