Default
date =--MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,FIND(",",A1)-FIND(" ",A1)-1)
month =MID(A1,1,FIND(" ",A1)-1)
year =--MID(A1,FIND(",",A1)+2,4)

Dear Xor,

Thank you so much for helping. However when I try to put it together so it can be shown as 17/04/2021, it didn't seem to work for me. Is there alternative?

Many thanks,
