更改 VBA 中的日期格式

Question

I think this is a basic question but I do not find a way to solve my problem

I created this code:

Sub test()

Range("A11") = CDate(Evaluate("WORKDAY(TODAY(),-1)"))
Range("A11").NumberFormat = "yyyymmdd"
MsgBox Range("A11")


End Sub

But my problem is that the MsgBox do not take into account the NumberFormat "yyyymmdd" , it shows "3/5/2021" instead of "20210305" . It there a way to change the code so that when I write MsgBox Range("A11") it shows directly "20210305" ?

Thank you for your help.

If you click the cell, you will most likely see 3/5/2021 as the value of the cell. Because it hasn't really changed, just the cell formatting.

MsgBox Range("A11") is the same as MsgBox Range("A11").Value , which will give you the value of the cell, without the formatting.
Try using MsgBox Range("A11").Text instead.
