Default Changing the value of a year in a given format

Bob,

No...this didn't work. For some reason, it's not even looping through. It
wouldn't even change the first one on the worksheet, which is in cell A1.
All the dates are in the "A" column.

Try this

For Each cell In Selection
With cell
If IsDate(.Value) Then
If Year(.Value) = 2006 Then
.Value = DateSerial(Year(.Value) - 2, _
Month(.Value), Day(.Value))
End If
End If
End With
Next cell

I typed it in verbatim, and I get an error box that only says "400"...???

Not sure what that means.

I'm trying to write a sub that will take a date from a given cell -

say
1/01/2006, and then change that to read 1/01/2004. I would physically

go
in
to do it to each cell, however, there' s over 10,000 cells, and I

thought
a
program would be easier. Any assistance in this matter would be

greatly
appreciated. Thanks.
