Just apply
ROUNDDOWN()
orINT()
to the date value to strip the time information; you may have to apply date formatting manually.The date value
10/21/12 09:39 AM
is internally stored as41203.4020833333
by Calc. Calc uses integers for dates and fractions for time values. So, the date part of10/21/12 09:39 AM
is41203
. Rounding down the value41203.4020833333
to41203
effectively strips the time information, leaving just the date (to be precise: the result is10/21/12 00:00 AM
- so it's just a matter of formatting the cell as date or date/time.
