 DATEVALUE(date$)
 
 Usage Notes
   ■ The argument date$ can accept date formats such as "December 30, 1988,"
     "12/30/88," and "28-Dec-1988." See: Date and Time Formats
 
   ■ If you embed time data within the date$ argument, it is ignored.
     For example:
 
         DATEVALUE("12/30/88 2:24 AM")
 
   ■ If the year part of date is omitted, DATEVALUE uses the current year
     from your computer's system date.
