Default Text to Date

Hi all. Withing a sheet, there are multiple instances of a date being
formatted as text (within a cell, '10/2004). I can use the datevalue
function to convert them. But, they occur in several spots, and their
locations vary from month to month. Is there a way to scan an entire sheet,
find dates formatted as text (ie look for a "/"), and convert them to date
format so my lookup formulas work?
