Date Column Formatting MM/DD/YYYY
![mel.greenspan](https://us.v-cdn.net/6031209/uploads/userpics/098/nB1JBT0HUS84J.png)
We have a date column that needs the year to be 4 characters. Instead of MM/DD/YY, we need it to display: MM/DD/YYYY. Any ideas?

Hi Mel,
- Is it in a date type column?
- Have you checked the different date formats available?
- Does it need to stay as a date or could it be text?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
Best,

Yes, it is in a date column and must stay as a date column - can't be text.
There seems to be date formats that are similar to what I need, but they have the weekday in it. I need something like the one with "Fri 04/27/2018" but without the "Fri".

Ok.
Unfortunately, I think it's time to submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment to get more options added.
